Penny

Exciting news. We have a new addition to the family. A little girl born on 27th April weighing 8lb 6oz. I was so surprised it was a girl thought we were going to have a boy. So now we have a matching set. She is gorgeous, looks so much like her brother at that age. We have called her Penny Lynette, it was one of the few names which both John and I agreed on. James helped chose it as at the time he was Fireman Sam mad and there is a girl called Penny in the books. Though if he had his way she would be named Fireman Sam Pig Pig. Lynette is after Katie.
Penny is absolutely beautiful she is also very well behaved and nowhere near as fussy as James was at that age. By week 5 she started to sleep from 10.30 to 7.00 with only one night feed. Now at 3 months she goes to bed at 8.30 and sleeps to 8.30 with only 1 feed.
James absolutely dotes on her and is always giving her little finger kisses and hugs. John went to see her yesterday and she had a digger sticker over her eye, so we have to keep an eye on him. Marley too is very fascinated by her. She has also started to smile and loves to be bounced and danced with.
