4.5 mths and growing fast

The girls are now 4.5mths old and are becoming more and more fun to be with each day (not that they weren't before!). Both of them can roll from lying on their backs, over to the fronts with ease now. So we've gotta keep a sharp eye on them.

Chinese New Year saw us doing lots of visiting - which meant the girls were amply entertained over the 3 days of visiting. Only about a week ago they became very aware of their surroundings, including people. Which meant at Chinese New Year, everytime they came across someone new, at least one of them would start crying...it was actually quite amusing as you can see their faces turn from happy and smiling, to sad and 'pouty', and then the crying starts...

Katherine seems intent on trying to participate in our conversations. Just tonight Grandpa had a friend over, and while we were all talking, she kept on trying to add her own 2 cents into the conversation. Such a cutie!

Katelyn is quite strong now, and loves to lie on her front, watching the world go by...

Anyway below are a few recent pics. The first is of both of them lying in their cot one night. Katherine scratches her head a lot (maybe she's already thinking about the world), and below she is scratching her head while trying to touch Katelyn's face!


Another one of Dad teaching Katelyn how to fly. Notice how she strategically lifts her legs up, and also lifts her arms into an aerodynamic position - no training required here...she learnt this possie herself!


This one is Happy Katherine after her bath. She loves bathing and on this particular night she was happy to pose for us on her towel after a nice relaxing bath...

The very last one is of Happy Katelyn after her bath - she was in a real good mood on this particular night!

Lastly...if you haven't seen the movie "Happy Feet", go and see it - we bought the dvd and have watched it twice already! The cute baby penguins in the show remind us of our girls!

Hey Jon
did you know you're being translated into Chinese (well the title of your blog anyway and on another website?)
