Good news and bad news!
The good news is that Elizabeth has moved. She has learnt how to shuffle on her bum on the wooden floors. She only manages about 2cm in 15 minutes, but it's a start and seems to make her very happy indeed. We were also given a bouncer for her and, as you can see from the shot above, she loves it.
The bad news is that Elizabeth caught gastro-enteristis with vomiting and we all had a very unpleasant week with a baby who kept throwing up on us. As a result, she has lost weight again and is the weight of an average five-month-old. At least we are going to get extra wear out of last summer's outfits - she's the cheapest baby in town.
Still not getting any sleep, but Elizabeth's room has now been transformed into a gorgeous, pale pink paradise with a pale blue polka dot blind. It looks so beautiful and was inspired by the lovely painting my sister gave Elizabeth. We'll put a photo on the blog when we 'launch' it!

Get well soon Anna. Remember they don't build diamonds like bricks.
Have you tried popping a duster under Anna's bottom as she starts moving? You'll have the best polished floors in the NE.
Much love

Doesn't Anna look like her mum in these pics?
Her weight seems to be a question of snakes and ladders, doesn't it? No sooner does she start putting on the pounds than something happens to take them off again.
Still, at least she's here and (mostly)happy. Only a few months ago even her survival was uncertain. Hard to believe she's only a few weeks off her first birthday, isn't it?
Love,
Sue
