First week on our own

Hi Everyone,

I've just had my first week on my own with Mummy as Daddy has gone back to work. On Monday we didn't really do anything. Mummy caught up on some sleep while I had a nap and then Daddy was home before we knew it!!

On Tuesday we went to see Grandma and Grandad again. Grandma insisted on Mummy taking a new picture of us without her having her apron on so here it is!!

We had dinner and then I got to meet Great Auntie Ena and Great Uncle Ron. They enjoyed having a cuddle and Mummy took a picture for me.

On Wednesday Mummy took me for a nice long walk in my buggy. We walked (well I was actually asleep for most of the journey!!) to the doctors to get my prescription and then Mummy went and did some shopping in Tesco. We were out for a good hour and a half and Mummy was very sleepy by the time we got back (unfortunately by then I had woken up for dinner!!)

Our Health Visitor Hayley came this afternoon.She bought me some books for Mummy to read to me and talked through a few things like doctor's visits and baby clinic. She also weighed me and I'm now 7lb 15oz!! Mummy was very pleased and so was Hayley as I'm gaining weight nice and steadily.

On Thursday we popped to Tesco for Mummy to get me a few new clothes and some other baby things. We were there a lot longer than Mummy anticipated as everyone (as well as us) were trying to double up there clubcard vouchers!! I had my first ride in the Shopping trolley but again I was asleep most of the time!!

On Friday I played on my play gym (kindly donated by Elizabeth, Alistair and Melissa) and Mummy put me on my tummy for the first time!! On Saturday we popped to Babies R Us while we waited for Daddy to finish work. Then Mummy's friend Julie came round for a cuddle.

Today, (Sunday) we're all having a day of rest as I kept Mummy and Daddy awake crying until 1am! I've been suffering from colic and it's not very nice. Mummy went to boots this morning though to get me some new medicine and we're all hoping it works better than the infacol I've been taking.

Next week Daddy has to stay away a few nights so I will try and be a good boy for Mummy!! Will update
you all again soon,

Lots of Love

First Visit to Grandma and Grandad's House

 

Hello Everyone,

I've finally made my first trip to visit Grandma and Grandad. I had a lovely day and had loads of presents to open when I got there. Mummy and Daddy are going to have fun writing all the thank you notes for me!! They also have to go and open me a bank account to put my £2 coins in that Grandma and Grandad gave me.

Grandma had the first cuddle. She has decided she wants to be Grandma rather than Nanny as she doesn't want to be refered to as an old goat!!!

Grandad had the second cuddle but I upset him a bit as I started to cry!! It was my dinner time and I was hungry! Mummy and Daddy gave me my bottle and I went to sleep for the rest of my visit!

I went through to see Ursula and and Fred next door with Mummy but I slept through that as well. Milk makes me very tired!!

I hope to visit again soon and maybe meet Aunty Ena and Uncle Ron too.

Bye for now,

James xxx
