10 Weeks

I won't go on about how much he's changing and growing and developing....or about how super cute he is!

Smiles and curls

We hit 7 weeks tomorrow and there's so many giggles and smiles that all the screaming and general grouchiness of the first few weeks seems like so long ago....I know there's still plenty more screaming and grouchiness to come, but the gurgles and cooes make it all so much more fun!

He has the most insane hair, with this big sweeping curl on top....it's just the CUTEST thing ever!!

And he loves his dad to bits....

On the good and bad news front, hubby got made redundant last week....so biggest YAY for having him home for the next few weeks....it's just a buggar we're going to have to dip into our savings to cover living expenses....but hey, them's the breaks and at least we have some money in the bank....we're very very lucky!

Just means the Bendy Luxury order I have sitting in my shopping cart will have to wait a while....forcing me to knit from my stash and finish some long neglected projects....might be a blessing in disguise and all that, really....hubby home to help look after bub for a bit = more knitting time for me!

4 and a bit weeks....

He's 5 weeks this Tuesday and has started talking to us with his cooes and gurgles....it's just so gorgeous....there's more personality developing everyday!....and already learning about being nerdy....
Nothing else to report, because I really haven't done anything else except look after the snorglet....you know the daily routine of washing his clothes and spew rags and bottles.

I've been tempted to place a Bendy order, because they've just introduced a new range of yarn that has 10ply!!....be still my beating heart....but it's so hard to justify buying more yarn when I have noooooo time to knit and I have a wardrobe full of yarn as it is....hmm, maybe just a few balls then....it's 10ply....it'll knit up quick!!!....I can get a ball or 2 to knit Hugh something....damn, I just want to buy YARN!!!!

A day at the park

Well, it was more like 20 minutes!....he had a few adventures over easter, fresh baked Hot Cross Buns at our friends Joh and Sarah's on Friday, Gran's on Saturday for a quick visit, the Park on Sunday and a trip to the shops on Monday, but only because mummy and daddy had run out of food!

He's 3 weeks old now and it feels like we've known him forever....still getting used to the lack of sleep and the odd bit of random screaming here and there....but the lil monkey blessed us with 6 straight hours of sleep last night, after a very grumpy pants day....missed his 4am feed and everything!

He's already growing up

2 weeks old now....

And Hugh makes three

He's home safe and sound....and such a tooty frooty cutie....already has a little personality, even if does involve vast amounts of banshee-like screaming.

Everything went smoothly....I'm still a bit sore and sorry, but is to be expected....though the doctors reckon the c-section was text-book!....woo!!

Tomorrow's the day.

And it still hasn't hit me!....and I still haven't packed.

I'm all booked in, just have to call later to confirm what time bub will be scheduled to make his appearance.

Paul's more nervous about it all than I am....bit fingernail-chewy, he says.

Bet I'm the one that doesn't sleep tonight though!
