This week

The weeks seem to fly by. The first part of the week is a whirlwind of getting ready for work, working, then rushing to get Cadell into bed as early as we can manage as he is usually so tired after not really sleeping at daycare (and this week he is still sick so he has been even more tired) then getting our tea and collapsing on the sofa...

And then the rest of the week is spent (for me) catching up on washing, cleaning, cooking, and looking after/playing with Cadell. I am going to do a separate post on a typical day when I am at home with Cadell so I can look back on what our routine was at this time. It would have been good if I had been doing the blog when he was younger so I could have recorded his routine at each stage. Hopefully I will be able to do that for the next baby.

He seems to be slowly getting better, he has been napping (so far) better than last week, and the last 2 nights he hasn't been coughing all through the night. I think Matt is also a bit better, he has had a cough as well.

I haven't decided what we are going to do this afternoon, we need to go to the bank and set up a bank account for Cadell, and go to Medicare, and go to the shops, etc... But I'm feeling a little off today so don't know how much we will get done. We might just go to the park or something.

Project 365 Week 3 Days 15-21

Project 365 Week 3.  Lining up his cars. He says 'Ar ok, tuck?' (Are you ok truck) when one moves out of line. Jan 15 Cleaning the house for photos as it has gone on the market. We don't really want to have to move after only moving in a month ago. :( Jan 16 Holding the bottle himself. He seems to have been preferring the bottle more than me at the moment. Jan 17 Already throwing the ball for Tessie. Jan 18 Slept 13 hours straight last night! First time for months that he has done that. Jan 19 Not part of project 365 but this was Cadell at the park, he had a great time! Jan 19 Happy 7 months to Liam! Standing by himself clever boy. Jan 20 37 degrees today so he came in a bit sweaty after his morning play! Jan 21

Bethan at 3 weeks old

She did a 7 hr stretch last night! She has been going to bed around 8-9pm and doing 6 hrs until 2 am and then going back down from 3 - 6 am but last night she slept from 8-3am then back down from 4-7am. It was lovely to have that much sleep. She's doing so well, she was 4.3kg at 2 weeks 2 days which is about 700grams up from her birth weight. She's in a bit of a routine during the day too, ive been trying to get her to have a little sleep in the morning, but the a bigger 2 +hr sleep at lunchtime, and then she will just do a few little naps before bedtime.  In the next few weeks I will work on getting her bed time down to 7pm and then 6pm. She also started cooing properly at 3 weeks 2 days and has been smiling since day 4.
