I can sit in my Bumbo now!!!
Isabelle has been growing fast and we have to keep telling her to take one step at a time. Her neck is quite strong now, and she can sit in her Bumbo (its a seat for babies!) by herself. Probably from 2.5mths her neck has been strong enough such that she can hold her head up high. Anyway she has already started rolling over too now, so we have to watch out - she has some lightning moves sometimes!
Today we put her in her Bumbo whilst we got ready for Christmas day....below she is sitting next to Katherine, with 2 baubles on her lap!
Katherine decided to read a story to entertain her mei mei (chinese for little sister!)

Isabelle 3mths Photoshoot
Isabelle is well and truly 3mths old now. We had her weighed and she's now 5.8kg and 61cm long. Pretty good going for a 3mth girl! We are starting to notice some traits now - for example she loves to watch and hear the twins talking and rabbiting on....she also hates to be alone in a room by herself. The other great thing is that she can sleep regardless of the noise level! Even when world war 3 has started between the twins, she can keep snoozing in the same room....remarkable!
So far we've found her very easy going, and at night she can sleep 8-9 hrs straight....which is bliss for us....
Anyway the other day after bathing her, Daddy couldn't resist pulling out the camera and taking some snaps of her chilling out!
The pic below is one of my favourites....in the background is a painting from our favourite aussie artist - David Williams.

Thank Goodness for Grandparents
Jeanette's parents are probably the world's best babysitters. Check out the picture below for the proof! Super Grandma managed to put both the twins to sleep on her lap without even moving a finger, and Super Grandad was taking care of Isabelle.
But seriously both Mum and Dad have been full of support and help ever since the twins arrived on the scene. We don't know what we would do without them....
Katelyn looking sooo peaceful (for once she is quiet!!!!)

Random Brekky Pics
Each morning the girls love to eat their breakfast!!!! Katherine ALWAYS eats raisin bread, and it must either be cut into squares or triangles! She's very specific about this....
Katelyn loves her cereals - its usually Weetbix, Rice Bubbles or Cheerios...
The great thing is that they both love their milk - so they always have a glass before heading off to school!

Twins School Christmas Party
Each year at Katelyn and Katherine's child care centre, they have a christmas party where the kids sing a few songs to the adults....last year the twins had huge stage fright, and cried the entire time - they didn't even make it to the stage (its not really a stage - its just an area in front of their playground at the centre), and instead mum and dad were holding them the entire time! This time round, it was slightly better - the twins made it to the procession to the stage, but again got stage fright and they were crying and sobbing during their walk to the 'stage'. Once on stage, they continued to cry and hide at the back! Well at least they have shown some improvement from last year by making it to the stage!

Da Vinci's in the making!
The girls love to paint, so Jeanette devised a way they could paint outdoors and not get our house messy! Thank goodness for outdoor chairs - it makes the perfect easel! Below the girls are mixing their paints on a beautiful sunday morning...
Katherine painting her masterpiece - she didn't like me interupting her painting session....
Katelyn with her "Mona Lisa". Look at that face of immense concentration...and check out her fantastic painting technique!
Katherine very pleased with her masterpiece! Katelyn still putting the final touches to hers...
