Wordless Wednesday

Just a few photos that warm my heart this week :)

Happy 1st Birthday to my 3rd Born Son Braith!!

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY BRAITH!!!

Can you believe that Braith is the big 1 already?!? Seems like just the other day I was preparing for his birth!

Being a Mumma of 6 kids (plus my stepson who came into my life at 2) you would think that I had babies all worked out! But no Braith was my not-so-easy-not-gonna-sleep-for-noone sort of baby that taught me that my patience has no boundaries!

He was sick at 6 wks with RSV and hospitalised for a week over the Easter school holidays, and when he was weaned we eventually discovered the poor little mite was allergic to dairy products. I even tested him today with some yoghurt and he has had a sick, upset tummy all day! Sorry little man!

He has never been a baby to sleep through the night, been a persistent crier but always happy little chappy when held, rocked and walked about!

He is our little dinosaur in the making. Braith loves to give big hugs and finish off with a big munch, usually on the shoulder or arm! And boy does it hurt!! OUCH!

Apart from all that drama, he is such a good little guy and the cutest baby around (even Callum said so!) lol!!

He loves rough play with his big brothers, will tolerate his sisters dressing him up and brushing his hair into a mohawk. He loves to 'talk' on the phone, give big smoochie kisses and has just started to master the art of walking by himself (he now walks more then crawling).

I love my littlest guy to bits and wish that time would slow down just a bit so that I can enjoy his babyhood just a little bit longer!!

My not so good sleeper Braith.....

Braith is such a light sleeper that the littlest noise can wake him up, so when I actually needed to wake him to collect the kids from school, I took the chance to take some pics of him 'actually sleeping' just to prove to myself in years to come that he did 'actually sleep'!



I don't know how he managed to stay asleep in that position! Bet he had pins and needles all over him after that nap!!

Braith 7mths old ....

Just a little snap shot of my littlest mister growing up way way too fast!

In the span of 3 days I caught him up on his bouncer,

climbing on my veggie baskets

then standing up on a toy basket!!

Guess who has fangs!

Braith falling asleep after jumping himself silly in his new Jumparoo :) This was his 1st time ever using it :)

Braith 4&1/2 months old

Braith 12 wks old already!?!

So much love so little sleep!

Here is my littlest bundle of love. Smiling already at at just a few weeks old, I would love to know what happiness he is dreaming of.......

Me on the other hand is not doing much dreaming, sleep is short, but not so sweet these days!!

My darling little boy decided to arrive ahead of his scheduled c/s on the 10th of February 2011.
