12 weeks old!

Hello everyone! Today I am 12 weeks old. Mummy and Daddy are proud as punch. I'm getting the hang of life outside mummy's tummy and living with mummy and daddy is pretty good. I spend my days eating, playing and sleeping, and I make sure I give mummy and daddy a poo present every day which they just love cleaning up! This week they accidentally bought nappies that are nearly too small for me, which I find very funny indeed. My day goes something like this: wake up at about 5 or 6am and mummy brings me into bed with her and daddy and they sleep for a bit longer. Sometimes I sleep too or sometimes I just wriggle and chat next to them while staring at my favourite thing - the ceiling fan. I can't get enough of it. Then daddy goes to work or to sleep, and mummy and I have breakfast and watch the breakfast news. I sit in my favourite spot in the corner of the couch, usually babbling away or sucking my hands. After that we usually go out somewhere to visit friends or go to an appointment or go shopping. Sometimes we go in daddy's big black car and sometimes we go in the pram on the bus. In the car I sit in my special capsule and I love looking out the window. I love the movement of the car and the bus and sometimes I cry when we stop at the lights, which amuses the other passengers on the bus. By the afternoon we are home and I might have a little sleep. I usually don't sleep for very long during the day, about half an hour at a time several times a day, but occasionally I'll have a longer snooze. If daddy has been at work he'll come home or if asleep he'll wake up, and then I have lots of cuddles with him, which I love. For the last two weeks at about 7pm mummy will get my bath ready and I have a lovely, lovely bath. I love the warm water and I'm like a little fish kicking and wriggling about. Mummy had to get a bigger bath because I've outgrown the other one that Uncle Ray and Liz gave me. After my bath mummy wraps me up and dries me off, then it's into my PJ's and off to bed. I'm very good at going to bed and sometimes mummy only has to put me in my cot and I go off to sleep, but most nights I need a little more help and mummy will rock me and say "shhhhh" and then I drift off. I sleep like the proverbial baby and I wake up two or three times during the night for a feed. All in all it's a pretty good life and I am a very happy little baby. I'll post again soon and tell you more. For now, I'll leave you with this pic of me out and about yesterday. Lots of love, Ethan x x
