The Hanique's

Weekend sleepover

Last weekend Tessa came over to our house. It was a very busy weekend with two babies just 3 months apart. But we had a lot of fun. Tessa is curious about Amy and wants to touch her. But as soon as Amy starts to cry it becomes frightening :)

Amy is not as actively interested in Tessa. She doesn't move around as much yet. She just carefully observes her from the safe and comfortable place in mommy's arms :)

2nd check up

It's been a while since I've posted anything. It's unbelievable how little time you have left to do simple things with a baby in the house. But so far I have enjoyed every moment of motherhood.
Today Amy had another check up. She now weighs 5400 grams and is 58 cm tall. It's above average but still very much within the normal limits. She's growing fast and learning all kinds of new things every day! She has a color full music mobile that she loves. Whenever it's on she'll start smiling at it and even try to talk to it :) She'll follow one figure around until it's out of sight and then quickly turn her head to where the next figure will appear.

Here's some more random pictures.

First check up

Yesterday Amy had her first check up. Everything was ok. She now weighs 4600 grams which is average and she's 56 cm tall which is above average. So she's a very pretty long legged girl :)

White Christmas?

It's been snowing this week... a lot. So I was hoping for a white Christmas but tonight the weather report wasn't that hopeful. It looks like it's going to turn into rain :(
Well, it was fun while it lasted. Here's some pictures of our view from the house.

My car... or what's left of it.

3 P's

After the big surprise this morning (see post below), Amy decided this afternoon to show us the true meaning of the 3 P's: Poop, Pee and Puke. As she was laying on the changing table and Daddy opened her diaper, there was the first P... lots of Poop everywhere! Even more than this morning! So Mommy came to help clean up. During the cleaning process there came another P... Puke... so much that she almost choked in it. When we finally managed to clean her from top to toe, there came the third P... lots and lots of Pee! So this time not only Amy but also the changing table and mattress needed to be cleaned up.
So a simple diaper change turned into a cleaning marathon. Ah, the joys of parenthood :)
