Above is a photo of Holly and Natalie the other night all ready for their beds after bathtime. This is as good of a photo we can get of the two of them as Holly never sits still long enough for photos these day! Speaking of baths, here are the girls sharing their first bath, which they both seemed to quite like!
Right so over the past month we have done our usual stuff, going to baby group, going to Creche (which Holly is coming round to), and catching up with our friends. We also got our new car which is fantastic! It is very spacious and one day I had 3 kids, 2 adults a sandpit and 4 bags of sand in it, nae bad!!
Unfortuanately last week poor Holly came down with the Hand Foot and Mouth virus, which isn't as bad as it sounds, but made her quite miserable. Luckily it cleared up within a week and she is OK now, although has a runny nose so she must have yet another cold! Natalie also got HFM whilst we were away and was very unsettled with it, poor baby. She hardly slept and had difficulty feeding but is much better now too.
So on Saturday we headed up to Lossie as Ian had this week off work. We stayed with my Mum and Dad and saw Grannie and Granda Stewart over the weekend. On Monday we headed up North to my Grandad's to visit him and introduce him to Natalie. We had a lovely time, Holly especially, she loved running around the village. Here are a couple of photos with him.
On Tuesday we met Leona for lunch at Brewsters which was lovely. I do have a photo of her with Natalie but she would probably be mad at me for putting it on here! So here is a photo of Holly playing there instead.
On Wednesday we packed up the car and headed home to Aberdeen, popping in past Garmouth to see Grannie and Granda Mclean first, here is Grannie with Natalie.
On Thursday I had my usual trip around the shops with Angela and Natalie, although instead of Holly and Matthew going to creche, Ian babysat!! They had a good time by all accounts and Ian managed fine. Here is Natalie before we went looking a right wee dude in her tracksuit that Uncle Steve got her.
On Friday we went to see the people about our proposed house extension then yesterday we went to storybook glen again as it was a nice afternoon. Holly loves it there and RUNS all around it. She totally wears herself out, the place is huge. Here she is in the Postman Pat van with her cheeky face on...
Today we went swimming in the morning, Ian takes Holly most weekends but today Natalie and I went to watch too which was great. Then we did our Asda shopping which was a total nightmare as both girls screamed at the checkout and everyone was looking at us, oh well!
Natalie is doing so well, I can't believe she is 16 weeks already. Here she is sitting in the bumbo seat that Kory loaned us, she looks so grown up!
And playing on her playmat....
Holly is really growing up, she is saying loads and copies everything we say. We can ask her what her name is and she says 'Holly' which is the cutest thing ever! She loves stickers at the moment and insists on us putting them on her nose.... dafty!
So that's all the photos for now, hope you like them. I am sure there is heaps I haven't told you but I honestly can't remember!! Ian is back to work tomorrow which is a shame as it has been great having him off with us. Natalie gets her final injection tomorrow and Ian is in hospital for his kindey biopsy on Thursday, which we aren't looking forward to.
Will be back soon

Thought I had left a comment but the puter must have crashed!! Fantastic to see the blog back in print, even if I saw you all this week. This way I can keep looking and show off to the girls at work. Love to you all, big xxxs to the girls.
Just looking at the girls as I miss them so. Hope they are being good today and that Natalie is eating up her solids!!
