Second week at home

On Monday our wonderful midwife Therese James called in to have a cuddle and weigh you, the first time you had been weighed since being born. Everyone was excited to see that you were doing well and growing, putting on 220 grams since being born. You are doing well and Mummy and Daddy can proudly say that you don't keep us up all night, you just want some food around 11 or 12 and again around 1 or 2 and close to get up time at 5:30 anyway. Already you have got a bit of a routine happening waking up hungry having drink, a nappy change, a cuddle and bedtime story then back to bed within an hour of getting up. On Wednesday you started to cry so I went to get you up for some dinner I laid you on your back on your bedroom floor while I quickly raced back to the kitchen to put Daddy and I's tea in the oven. When I got back you were on your side. I rolled you back onto your back to see if you could do it again and sure enough you rolled back over obviously preferring to be on your side. This was very exciting and had me getting my Plunket book out to see when I started rolling (wasn't recorded until 9 weeks in my book but this was rolling from my back onto my tummy and back around). So now daddy thinks you are advanced and must have his genes. Only a couple of weeks have past but already you are changing getting bigger and stronger having more control of your neck and focusing on the sound of Daddy and his voice.
