Summer has arrived

So summer is finally here but it's so hot it's making us all a bit sleepy - as I write Katie and Sophie are asleep over on the other couch (I've only just woken up).

Gran was up to visit again this week
We were at the Doctors today and Sophie had her 6 week checks (albeit a week later than usual) She passed with flying colours and it turns out she has grown another 2cm in length this week and has now ballooned to 11lbs 14oz - a very healthy and rapid weight gain.

We've had another busy week ourselves, a long trip down to Campbeltown was a real test - would Sophie sleep? Or wouldn't she? Turns out she slept almost all the way on the way down and then almost all the way home on the way home. A great performance and as great at seeping while Dad's driving as her Mum is.

"Ready for the drive to Campbeltown - 3 hours, you kidding me?!"
"I'm away to sleep then"
Can you spot the 3 heavy sleepers at Gran's house?

"bathtime - i don't look excited but I am!"
We did a lot of visiting whilst down in Kintyre - we saw Great Uncle Bruce, Great Aunt Isobel and Great Great Aunt Margaret.





And then it was a long journey back up the road - via a wee pit stop in Tarbert


This Iso Fix isn't working the way I thought.
Once we got home it was all about chilling out and thinking ahead to our Commonwealth Games plans.

"This Baby bouncer is great for sleeping in as well"
"Only joking Mum, I want fed instead"
"Yawn"
We also went over to Gran and Grandads for a wee party for Aunt Jean who turned 65, a great wee family day and as usual my Mum went above and beyond with her efforts.
