Synchronization of Us

Figured it was time i done a real post rather than a post full of pictures or fluff.
How cute is the wanted poster? , Have included the picture below as i just love the shot - i love the way Rebecca’s hand is around her sister , they look so cute together

Its not been the most exciting week, the weather was pretty blah for alot of it so we never went out much. We took a trip to the shopping centre on Sunday, to pick up some more teething tablets for Eilidh and pushing the stupid double pram somehow buggered up my wrist. I have been in pain on week, if its still as bad Monday i think i will have to bite the bullet and go and see the doctor.
Rebecca has been driving me insane with her sleeping this week, it seems being ill has just made her regress to waking constantly and feeding what seems like hourly . She is also back to getting up around 5am . Other than that she is doing so great and keeps us very entertained - she loves throwing her ball around and riding her toy car up and down the hallway. She runs away from us constantly just because she can , and plays mum with her “baba” . She is getting so good with feeding herself using knife /forks etc… but it can make meal times even messier
She loves to play games and wind us up, even being put in Eilidhs cot as a punishment - she turned it into a game of running up and down and bouncing, she stayed in there for about 30 minutes before getting out and saying “Im sorry”.

Eilidh is doing great to, practising on her crawling and gets a little closer each day. I need to give her more time sitting so she can perfect that, i have noticed she is not babbling that much and is not really making many sounds yet but I’m assuming its because she is so busy with other stuff. We were impressed with her tonight when she lifted up a witch hat (from Halloween) and put it on her head rather than try to eat it . The big news with her is we are going to start solids tomorrow , i have really agonised over this so much as there is still 2 1/2 weeks till she is 6 months but i honestly believe she is ready. She is showing all the signs and when i let her try a little bit of banana of a spoon she took it like a pro - she does not try to push the food out and chews it for a bit before swallowing. She is still sleeping great so i don’t think she needs it but she wants it so badly. Expect some pictures of this tomorrow.

We did have the girls health visitor come by today and she weighed and measured them both.
Rebecca was 21lbs and 80cm
Eilidh was 14.12lbs and 64cm

I was quite surprized that Rebecca had not grown any as her legs seem so skinny but i guess its from the walking. She is in 5% for weight and 12 for height.
I was a little upset by Eilidhs as she had not gained since the last time she was weighed a few weeks back, i was so sure she would be over 15lbs bu now - but the health visitor was not worried as she thinks Eilidh is just burning off all the calories from being so active (she honestly never stays still even in her cot - Christina if your reading was Nadia like that to? ) . I was convinced she would be longer to as all her clothes are getting to short but i guess she is healthy so who cares , she was 50% for weight and 68% for height.
