I'm such a lickle man...

I'm quite bored today, my daddy has gone back to work and I'm stuck at home with mummy. It's been so lovely to have daddy at home and I've really bonded with him. I can't wait until he comes home tonight so we can play together!

Daddy's got the magic touch

I'm being very good for mummy this morning though, I've made sure that I've given her time to get a shower, have breakfast and a warm cup of tea (a hot cup of tea doesn't exist anymore), fold some washing, tidy my room, throw the rubbish out, check her emails, even replace the battery in the clock that she noticed was stuck on 4.30 this morning - all this and it's 10.40am! I've been amusing myself listening to music - Katie Noonan and Stevie Wonder are my favourite at the moment, and I'm just kicking back to some Roachford now. I'm looking forward to having some tummy time today, I'm getting really good with my neck now and can move my head from one side to the other and back again without too much trouble.

We've spent the last few days out and about again, meeting people who's voices I know from when I was 'on the inside'. Everyone's been so nice, I can't wait until I'm bigger and can play with everyone properly. We've been out to the shops a few times too and for walks around home as the weather has been dry but pretty cold so my Collingwood blanket has come in handy. I'm really easy to get out and about as I love my stroller and being in my car seat.

My first introduction to Australian wildlife - she feeds the same way as me!

We went to see Grandad Jensen in the hospital on Friday after his operation - I hope he gets better soon so he can come home and we can play together. I got to see my Nanna Jensen, Aunty Michelle and cousin Liam too and I had a lovely time. I look so little next to Liam, though I'm sure it won't be too long and I'll be the same size as him since I'm already growing so quickly. We dropped in to see Aunty Karen at work afterwards and we went for a coffee down Brunswick Street. We timed it perfectly for her to give me a bottle and I made her laugh with the faces that I pull when she burps me!

Have you finished yet?!

What a wind smile!

The maternal healthcare nurse came to visit on Friday morning. Everything is really good and when she weighed me, we found out that I had put on a pound since Friday last week! I'm not surprised because I enjoy my milk so much, but mummy and daddy were a bit surprised that I'm now 7lb 14oz. Since I'm growing so quickly they decided to take a few photos to show how little I am so when I'm towering over them they can remember how sweet I used to be.

Obviously Mummy and Daddy are getting too much sleep Connor. Would you like me to buy you a drum kit? You look like a rock and roller to me!
