"Daisy" Ray

This week, the littlest Ray revealed herself to be a girl...I think Andrew instantly went 30% more grey! This is a good thing, since Sachin has been declaring every day for the past three weeks that he's having a sister (named Daisy according to him). Good to know we don't have to re-set any expectations.

She made her big screen debut at 13 weeks and 3 days. She was small enough to fit in her entirety on the screen:

In this week's ultrasound (week 19) you can see she's getting bigger:

Here she is, caught in the act of:

Thinking

Yawning (life is so tough when your T-minus-21 weeks old)

...and practicing her best Halloween face

Twinkle toes

I couldn't get Smashy out of his new shoes yesterday! He kept saying, "My toes toes light up!"

Bouncy bouncy bouncy....fall

More like, "Bouncy bouncy bouncy...throw yourself to the ground"

A giggle for Mayama

He was actually watching Upsey Daisy, but I'm posting for Mayama.

Good boy?

Sachin loves his bottle...

Halloween

Here are some pix from the Halloween party at the Early Years Centre, where Sachin goes to play with other kids:

Who knew giraffes could play the piano!



On Halloween day it was a real African safari, with two giraffes and an elephant :-)
