Thanks Anne


Mum and I went to see our obstetrician today, Anne MacGibbon. She's the one who helped Eli and I enter this world safely. She is the first face in the entire world that I saw :)

Thanks Anne for doing a wonderful job taking care of mum and I :)

Happy Easter

Here I am hanging out with my new friends.

The whole family got a cholcolate bunny except me. I got new batteries for my bouncer chair instead. Seems like a good deal?

Elimena & Mum have a very compatible love of Easter eggs...Eli loves the sparkly wrap and mum loves the chocolate inside. So Eli unwraps the eggs and feeds them to mum. Mum thinks all of her Easters have come at once :) Well they kind of have as I am sure Eli is not going to be giving away her cholcolate next year!

As for me, Mum has promised that I'll get to eat an Easter egg next year. So for this year, at least there is chocolate flavoured milk!

Self-Portraits and Baby Bjorns


Mum took me out in the Baby-Bjorn last week (thank you Bodhi and Harper for lending me yours). She also showed me how we can make self-portrait piccies to send to dad. See my face in this piccie...I'm not sure whether I like the self-portraits or the baby-bjorn less. Although I soon learnt that the baby-bjorn meant a two-and-a-half-hour cuddle as we went for a walk. So it wasn't so bad after all.

The Greats...

I have two Great Grandmas and I've had been lucky enough to have Great cuddle-time with them both :)

Female influence

It's not easy being a boy in this environment ... the Wallace women!

Eli's cool bath

My big sister had been kind enough to lend me her luxurious funky bath. It is so relaxing and comfortable. Mum would like an adult size one...but apparently that version should come with an in-built red wine and chocolate dispensing system. Perhaps if I end up an engineer like mum and dad, I could give it a go..?

P.S. These pictures were taken on my second day at home.

One month in...

One month in so what's going on?
* I'm pretty much out of the 0000's! Although my feet have been too long for most of the enclosed 0000 outfits since birth.
* I generally feed every 3-4 hours. (fun fun for mum during the night - but we have nice cuddles then and so she doesn't mind). I did have a 9 hour stint one night - which scared the living daylights out of mum, but that has since to be repeated. I haven't really settled on a routine yet.
* I think big sister Eli thinks I'm a puppy as she keeps kissing and patting me?
*I'm not a big fan of tummy time.
* I like hanging out in the bouncer and the mini-gym. I particular LOVE the vibration mode on the bouncer.
* I like to sleep with at least one hand out of the wrap.
* I've put on an average of 300g a week since I left hospital. Mum keeps calling me Beef-Cake. Do I like that or not?
* My favourite foods are milk, milk and milk.
