22 months

My first born is now 22 months!

I have been finding it a bit hard lately, with our eminent arrival of baby #2, and with all that has been happening (finishing work, selling house, and moving house - all of which I will write down at some point!) to really spend as much quality time with Cadell as I would have liked while we still have this  one-on-one time.

He is still not really talking much, although he is comprehending so much more every day, has figured out that there is a baby in mummy's tummy and will cuddle and kiss my belly. He will also offer the baby a drink through my belly button as he does with all his toys and the dogs these days. He did say 'Baby' one day, and I think he said 'birdie' also. Birds are his favourite thing still, and he loves balls and balloons, playing outside, the dogs. He's not as keen on the TV, but when he does watch it he loves 'mr blooms nursery' and 'Justin's house'.

He is becoming a very helpful little boy and will follow simple instructions well. His general nature is still very sweet and shy and caring. He does however have typical boy in him, and will hit and kick as he is testing his strength. We have noticed that he will obviously change personalities and becoming very cranky, tantrums and lots of crying/screaming when he is not well (very not well not just a cold) as he has had 2 double ear infections in the last 2-3 months and still has one inflamed ear and while he was unwell and not getting enough pain relief he was so different to how he is normally.

At 36 weeks we got a 3d/4d scan done, it was amazing to see the detail!

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.
