Imperfect perfection

Perfection with a slight imperfection.

Henny Helena Tjorteland Conibear

so we now have an MM and a (real) HH


Waddaya mean i'm scarred for life?



Well the carousel of sickness stopped turning, everybody jumped off and it went away to visit somebody else.

Then it came back and everybody jumped on again, - except me.

Henny picked up her first cold, most probably thanks to her older sister bringing it home from the infection pool that is nursery.
Not that Maud can be accused of wishing any harm to come to her newly arrived sibling, in fact quite the opposite, Maud is the best big sister ever. Fact.
Maud entertains, consoles, shares and looks after her sister and goes about life as if nothing has really changed at all.
Long may it continue

The Henny news besides the cold is all good, she is piling on the weight and at last check up was around 4800g.
Her recovery so far has been everything we could have hoped for and a bit more, she sleeps, eats, cries and does the other baby stuff just as if nothing had ever happened.



Maud still has time for the all important footy matches. Sadly the head in hands pose says it all, a defeat against the scousers is always hard to swallow.




Immensely proud, she's almost bursting.


Henny practices for her soon to be taken passport photo - watch this space.
