Alice is 6 weeks old now and everyone tells me that life is now much easier (as you will see from our picture from early yesterday evening - we've boundless energy now!). So, under pressure from the Bradleys, I find myself with no more excuses to avoid blogging her life. Alice has to keep up with Madison after all. Hopefully this will also help with the continual requests for photos from friends and family who really need to get down with the kids and get onto Facebook.
Babies seem to have 2 big early milestones - 6 weeks and 3 months. I'm not sure what was supposed to happen yesterday to change our world but thankfully nothing really did, as she really is a great baby. Indeed her father was heard to give her an 8 out of 10, "as babies go". Given his vast experience of the little blighters, I'm sure Alice would be overjoyed to hear this. It does raise my competitive hackles, however, so I'll be looking to up the ante and get her a higher score next time he is rating her.
I'm pretty sure I'll never find the time to go back over the last 6 weeks in any great detail so please allow me to move on from here. So long as we find the time to post again...





Hi Helen, You both look so peaceful. Madison has just passed the 3 month milestone and it just becomes so much more fun as she is interacting with us all the time. Alice should start smiling soon and that just makes all the sleepless nights worthwhile. Keep the blogs coming. Vanessa x
ReplyDeleteHi Helen,
ReplyDeleteHow did you manage to find time to do all this?
My blog isn't quite ready yet so in the meantime we look forward to more adventures of Alice!
Love,
