Happy *Corrected* Birthday Isla !

Yay, Happy "corrected" birthday to Isla... she has finally reached her due date which was the 15th May. Sorry for not blogging sooner but it is amazing how few things you can get done with such a little thing like Isla.

So here are Isla's stats:
24th March / 15th May
actual bday / corrected bday
Weight: 2.1kg / 3.6kg
Length: 44.5cm / 51 cm
Head : 30cm / 35.8cm

So you can see that our gorgeous girl has grown heaps in the past 7 and a half weeks, her stats show her to be between the 50th and 75th percentile for full term babies which is just perfect. We have to account for Isla's corrected birthday since all her milestones are based from this date and not her actual birth day, so we are very excited about seeing when she smiles, chuckles, rolls over etc, but as we all know already, she can lift her head up very well.


Isla's aunty Sue has arrived from the UK so here she is giving our girl a big cuddle


Since Sue has arrived, we actually have had a couple of family portraits taken by her.


And here is a very special one of Mum and daughter.

Cuddles and tummy time


Isla and Lewis - Lewis is my mate Karen's bub and he is 6 months old and weighs in at 9.8kg! I find it hard to believe that Isla will ever be this big!



Here she is getting some Daddy time!


And finally for today, here is our angel demonstrating how strong her neck is already.

little angel






Here are some more photos of our little angel. Yesterday we took Isla to the doctors and she is very healthy and weighs 3.1kg now. Not much else to report for now.
