So cute!

Phoebe, the social butterfly.

Phoebe has been busy meeting friends and family over the last week. With Josh's cousin, Brad.

The Campbell girls

We spent a lovely few hours at the Wellington Brewery, trying the new Espresso Porter (Mum and Dad only!). Iris had a great time and Phoebe seemed to enjoy her first visit to a pub.

Keeping Iris busy

Iris is adjusting well to being a big sister. We've found the trick to be keeping her occupied and active. She loves racing up and down the deck on her scooter and we've been going to a couple of playgroups in Titahi Bay. We went to the zoo last week - she loved the lions and the kookaburra.

Wetting the baby's head

Iris helping at nappy changing time. Big sister is doing really well with the big change in her life - she's learning to be gentle and tries to share her toys with Phoebe.

She's here!

After keeping us waiting...and waiting...Phoebe Rose Campbell finally made her entrance into the world on Tuesday 15th August at 7.16pm at Kenepuru Hospital in Porirua. She weighed in at a healthy 3.46 kilos (or 7 pounds, 6 ounces in the old speak). Everything went so smoothly that we went home 3 hours later. Since then, Phoebe has been sleeping and eating like a trooper and treating us to the odd period of alertness.

Minutes old.

Ready to go home.
