All smiles - 7 weeks

Latest developments

He's getting bigger about the 12 1/2 lb mark now but the way he's eating it'll be 13+ by the time you finish reading this note most probably by the time I've finished writing it.

He's feeding every hour and half / two hours at the mo which is a little tiring for Sue.

Apart from out growing a lot of clothes and getting heavier he's also started smiling at the two of us which is more lovely than you can possibly imagine.

He's making sounds at us aswell so we have conversations and he looks at me with something akin to "No silly daddy what are you talking about I asked when mummy is coming with the milk!"
Works a little dull but I might be able to work from my office one day a week, need to get onto my accountants about that.

Jack doesn't like the tickle me elmo that Sue got he screamed quite alot. Still enjoying the morning time we have before I goto work and managed to get him to take the expressed bottle again before bed a few times now. Pulling the teat back out a bit and maintaining some pressure when he's sucking seems to have helped.

Bath time is good though he didn't seem as keen the other night. Think we've passed the 700 odd photo mark this week.
My DS is great though nearly makes me miss my stops on the tube.

It's my birthday...i said it's MY birthday

Had Nana and Grandad around on sunday and i cooked tea pork shoulder and steamed veg best one yet so sue said. Jack was pretty good, still eating loads and getting bigger.

Monday and Tuesday pretty good days then it was my birthday on Wednesday, so i took the day off work. First off the weather bloody horrid come on it's July for f%&$ sake!! wanted to goto the park.
Ended up putting the rain cover on and going into town Wetherspoons for lunch steak and pint again yay. then a bit of shopping. Lots of stupid people in town getting in the way and pushing past grrrrrr

Sue was rather tired so tried to get some sleep and me and the little lad had some time together but again he hasn't grasped the idea of what daddy's birthday is about yet. Rather grisely all day wouldn't take his bottle from me, dudn't get to play any games or with my new DS..
Not the centre of attention anymore oh well.

Last night took a bottle of a big feed thought he was going to play up again but then drank the lot more like that please!

good day bad day

Hmm had a good day yesterday and a bad one went out to outbeak steak house and got some food, it's like being human again Jack was great then around sainsbury's in the trolly, got home and he wasn't eating much and then I started to give him his bottle from yesterday took 2 thirds of it and then projectile vomited all over himself and me.

Then he's not been pooing that much either and generally not settling and making his funny noises started to get a bit worried.

Changed at 4am again not alot of poo and he was sick over me again hmmmm

Then 6am change he'd been making funny noises and farting alot and then squelchy noises of him letting rip change the nappy and it's full to overloading hmmm first diarrhoea case then carried on after the nappy was off runny yellow green stuff everywhere, thankfully we have terry's in place

He seems a bit better now that's all out.
