Play Time

This is one of the ways Elijah spends some of his play time. I have these black and white printed out pictures stuck all over the house.

I also had much better photos than these but my camera was flung into the air when I was about 28 weeks pregnant because I slipped and I had Joshua in my arms, so it was Josh or the Camera that had to go. Then in this past week my camera dropped again and it didn't seem like any major damage was done until I tried to download photos...Half of them won't download :(

I love Elijah's toes that are so long they almost look like fingers. He also has really long fingers, which he flexes when he's really enjoying something.

E began to smile at about 4,5 weeks. He's getting better and better at it each day. The first person he smiled at was Joshua.

He feeds every two hours round the clock which is limiting so we have introduced one formula bottle at 5 am which Barry gives him so that i can try and get between 2 - 4 straight hours of sleep.

He is being treated by a friend who's a Chiropractor. He had a locked right hip, his lumber spine was out and his neck was in a bad spasm. We think this is because as he was delivered I was turned from my side to my back and that could have twisted him slightly.

He has the tiniest cry. I can have the monitor on full volume and will still battle to hear him cry at his full volume.

Seth & Josh love E to bits. They are always asking to hold him and even fight over who's brother he is. I must try and get on video how Josh greets E.

Elijah has just started doing the "gn" sound when he speaks to me.

When I put him on his side for a feed he kicks his left leg up and down.

When someone new holds him he stares at them wide eyed.

When I put E on his stomach he can already push himself up and over on his side.

He still has his hair from birth which is amazing for me because Seth and Joshua were baldies by this age.

He loves his baths which I'm glad about because it's winter and I was worried the cold would bother him.

When he's feeding or in pain it seems as if he intentionally reaches for my finger to hold.

He's the first baby I've had that loves to sleep on my chest.

I have also ordered a Meeup and can't wait for it to arrive!
