For someone so small, Wren-Lee has quite a life. The last few weeks have been a good example of just how big this little dinky toy's world is becoming.
She's been to Decorex, the Waterfront, quite a few restaurants, Canal Walk, did a stroll around the block on a sunny day, tagged along to my Pilates class and has been keeping up her social engagements at friends' houses. My personal favourite outing was dinner at Reuben's at the One&Only. Oh yes people, this little miss has been to Cape Town's very own 6 star hotel and the resident eatery owned by SA's favourite celebrity chef.
While her mommy and daddy had lovely steak, lamb shank, red wine and yummy desserts, she got a bottle. Ever the socialite, she had her meal at the table and stayed awake for quite a while enjoying the sights and sounds of the restaurant. Unfortunately, she fell asleep just before Reuben came to join our table but he did get a good look at her.
Continuing with her celebrity run-ins, a few days later we bumped into my friend, Aidan Bennetts (model, TV presenter, design genius and entrepreneur), while we out for lunch with another celeb friend; sports journalist and football guru Julia Stuart. I'm quietly trying to arrange a future romance for Wren with either one of Aidan's nephews. If their uncle is anything to go by, they'll be good lads when they're older. Uncle Aidan, however, still has to be persuaded into this arrangement *laugh*
Anyhoo, Aidan did meet her at Decorex but she was sleeping so he was happy to catch her awake. Julia was so hoping she'd be awake but she slept straight through our lunch date.
We also went to meet little Chloe Morris but both girls were asleep although they have now officially been introduced. Hopefully next weekend, Wren and Sienna will get some time together and we'll see if their communication has progressed. The last time they were together, they actually managed a short conversation in babbling, cooing and brief shouts. It was hilarious and Natalie and I had such a good laugh at their little talk in their nonsensical language.
Finally, kiddo got her 10 week shots. It went pretty well and we got her new measurements. She's 57cm tall and weighs 4kgs. At last!! We hit 4kgs!!! I was so excited I figured she'd fit into her 1-3 month clothing now. Big mistake; it's all still way to big for her. We continue in newborn for a bit longer, some of which is still big enough for her to be in for another month maybe.
So, although my little person is still quite little, she's growing in every way. She's getting taller, a little heavier and has discovered her hands. She laughs at her daddy, moans at her mommy, relaxes in her bath and really enjoys communicating. I can see in her eyes that pretty soon my little baby is going to be my little big person and I can't wait.
