9 month check-up and Thanksgiving!

Another exciting week!  First up, our 9 month check up..

Harrison weighed in at 19lbs 10oz and 29 1/4" long
 

Stella weighed in at 18lbs 1oz and 29 3/4" long

Aunty Carrie, Isy and Ava arrived from Oz this week. We have been brunching and lunching around NYC...
 

I think Mum and Dad were more excited than we were...
 

They also joined us for our very first Thanksgiving!
 

It took many many attempts to get the photo above. First.... Harrison had a melt down because Mum was holding Ava... 

Then.... Stella decided to 'lovingly' pull Ava's hair mid-shot...

Our best friend Jack also came with his parents.

We had a great day. Turkey is delicious!




The countdown is on until we fly home to Australia for Christmas!

Three Musketeers

It's just us and Mum this week. Dad had to go to Oz for work. We miss him terribly. We are taking good care of Mum.

Harrison is getting his fifth tooth and Stella's top two teeth have also cut through. The up-side is we can keep Mum company at 5:45am in the morning when we wake up from the pain.

Harrison has got the hang of waving hello and goodbye and Stella now loves to clap. We promised Dad we wouldn't start crawling until he returns.

Sick, cold and 'Dadda'!

Sadly, Harrison and Mum have been sick this past week. Luckily everyone is on the mend. It's been so cold that we had to up-grade from wool beanies to furry woolly hats!

Stella loves hers...

Harrison isn't too sure..

Dad is very sad as he has gone to Oz on a work trip. Stella gave him a big surprise the weekend before he left by saying 'Dadda'! Now she doesn't stop... it's 'Dadda Dadda' all day long. Mum is aggressively coaching Harrison to say 'Mumma'... watch this space...
