Oscar is now 9 1/2 weeks old, and is starting to be more awake during the day, so we have to keep him active in his activity gym and play chair.
Last week, we had the 8 week health check up with the childcare nurse, and Oscar is now a big boy weighing in at 4.9kg and measuring 56cm, so he is growing fast!
Last week we also had great weather on the weekend, so the whole family was outside to enjoy the summer weather.
Oscar certainly felt the heat, so he was lightly dressed for a few days. It is also good to have cuddle time with daddy on the couch :-)
The weather is still changing a bit, so even though we had 30 degrees and could sit outside and enjoy the weather 2 weekends ago, last weekend it bucketed down and we had plenty of thunder and lightning.
Luckily, the weather cleared up enough Saturday evening for us to make a butterflied leg of lamb on the BBQ as the Spratt Family was visiting to meet Oscar.

The last week or so, we have also got the video camera going, and below are a couple of videos with Oscar. --- ***three days later: there were supposed to be a couple of videos of Oscar, however because of our shockingly slow internet connection, there is only 1 video. I will try to upload the other video by breaking it up into smaller clips later...

Oscar has also become a very good boy, and now sleeps almost through the night, waking up between 5 - 5.30AM, so mummy is getting a bit more sleep as well :-)
