Nanny Kaye Comes to Visit

Not long after Grand-Nana had been Nanny Kaye came to visit too! We were quite popular this year with visitors! Last time that Nanny Kaye had visited was when Lili was a baby. Daddy was super excited to have her visit. She couldn't believe how big your were!!!! you are a huge baby by the way, you are completely off the charts for your weight.....here's hoping that you slim down a little once you start walking. Your siblings were pretty fat too.

Nanny Kaye gave you almost all your bottles while you were here, and changed lots of nappies and had lots and lots of cuddles. You are so lucky to be loved by so many people.

Passport Photos

Knowing that Nana was unwell and that we would likely have to go back to New Zealand I tried to organise your passport as soon as possible.
Taking your photo was TOUGH. As soon as I got the camera out you would start laughing and smiling, or try and run away. It took a few shots before we got the "money" shot.

Nana, Grand-Nana and Grand-Graeme

In March Nana, Grand-Nana and Grand-Graeme came over to Australia to visit you. Grand-Nana had been very unwell and didn't think she would live to see you born. She held in there though and was so so happy to finally meet you. While I was still pregnant with you she hurriedly crocheted you a blanket just in case she was too unwell to finish it once you were here. That blanket is always on your bed.
Your impending birth was such a light in her life when things seemed so bleak. It was almost as soon as they went home from meeting you that she began to go down hill quickly. She loved you so so much Ammon. I wish that you would be able to remember her. She even chose your name.

First Cold

My poor Ammon, this week you had your very first cold. You sounded so sad, like a poor little puppy. What was the most sad about it was that you lost your little voice. I hated seeing you so sick but there wasn't much to do other than ride it out. Luckily you were a happy sick baby, you just sounded terrible!

Daddy's Lil Man

Daddy doesn't usually care too much about what you wear. He is always concerned about why you kids are never wearing socks though. However when we went shopping last week Daddy really really wanted to buy you this cool outfit.

Stop Growing!

I cant believe how fast you are growing! You are growing so fast I can barely keep up. I buy you new clothes then 2 weeks later you are too big for them. I'm sure if I just stare at you for awhile
I could see you grow right in front of my eyes. I weighed you last night because I was sure you were huge! you weighed 8.4kg. That is more than double what you weighed when you were born and you're not even 4 months yet. I shouldn't be surprised as all you do is eat eat eat!

What is that SMELL?

Ammon, you are with out a doubt the most STINKIEST kid ever! Your farts stink out the whole house, your dirty nappies make us all want to gag. To make matters worse you are such a farty bum that we are always getting nasty whiffs of your odours all the time. You are lucky you are so cute otherwise we might have had to put you outside to live.
