4 month photo shoot...

...u want a photo of me mummy?...


i'm just a little busy right now...

and this pony is crowding my personal space...


...please get it off me...


what? u want me to smile?...but i can't eat my hands when i'm smiling...


wow this past 4 months has gone fast. in no time at all ella will be starting solids :( she's seriously eating her hands already, the only time they're not in her mouth is when she's fully asleep :)

she's still trying to roll over...but I'm really keen for her to just stay put for a little while longer.

at the dr last week she weighed 8kg. but she still had her clothes on so she's probably not quite that big (yet!). She met her daddy's cousin's little boy the other day (Ben's son) who was born the day after her. She is bigger than him. I'm glad she's too young to get a complex about it yet ;)

she's just seriously awesome. eats and sleeps on schedule and is really good at waiting if we have to change things around. smiles and puts up with her doting brothers really well. they are still gorgeous with her, lots of kisses and 'cuggles' and Josh loves to say that he's 'protecting' baby Ariella. He always uses her full name, despite me and my silly-made-up-names obsession.

she still sleeps in with us...partly cause she's my last baby and I'm just holding onto it a little longer...and partly because it's taken me FOREVER to find curtain fabric that I like in order to make blinds for her windows...

i didn't do too well saying goodbye and going back to work last week. who knows why the difficulty with that seems to have increased exponentially with each baby?...
