Smiling...........






That's what our little man is now doing!! Max has shared with us the what we were pretty sure was a smile but last night he went for it and wouldn't stop so I finally had the chance to capture photographic evidence of this milestone in his life! He will be 7 weeks old this coming Tuesday, it has just flown and while life is busier with him here it's also more perfect as well! He was weighed on Tuesday and is 11lb 5oz and a whopping 60cm long, he doesn't fit 0-3 months tops as he is really broad in the shoulders, I told Aaron that the next all black had been born, he rolled his eyes at me!!
We had Millie's acceptance to St John's Girls School last week which was a huge relief as we really didn't have a back up plan if she missed out (there were only 4 places available in the new entrants class next year) and there were quite a few on the waiting list so while I am ecstatic she got in I also feel sad for those who didn't get their first choice of school for their daughter! She has her first ballet exam next Friday which I had been quite nervous about for her but at the end of the day she's 4, ballet is not a career option for her as she likes it but would rather be swimming and will probably not keep going after the end of the year concert so no big deal, her teacher is a bit full on and very demanding and I feel like reminding her that they are only 4!!!!

Wow, Max is getting sooooooo big, Meg! Geesh! Seems like only yesterday you had him! Gorgeous photos! And yes, they are only 4. This is what I try getting across to some people too! Sometimes everyone seems to rush these kiddos to grow up and then we all wonder why it's 'ok' to drop out of school at 15.
