12 weeks old today..Wow that is a water shed right there isnt it…I mean 12 weeks, officially no longer a squidy newborn and now growing into a nearly 3 month old babba. Cant. quite. believe. it.
So some things about my little Matilda Rose…
1. She is all smiles at the moment, toothless, lovely bits of sunshine. she doesnt care who you are or it seems in fact what you are she will give you a great big smile. The fridge, the cooker, the bathtub and bizarrely, today, the talcum powder bottle.
2. She still has a cold…i think she is getting on for about 4 weeks worth now…c'mon antibodies do your stuff!
3. She sleeps…really well and im not a 'sleep-bragger'…you know the type…'oh, really..your baby was up all night…hmm…little Joey has been sleeping through since his first night at home..' Those kind of comments always make you want to scratch your eyes out in despair dont they? So I wont go on, she has just sorted herself out…i still have no formula to get babies to sleep well, even after having four. Sometimes they wake, sometimes they dont…
4. She is still keeping us fairly challenged in the washing department. Isaac's first question now if he holds her is 'will she puke on me?'
5. After an initial period of being a bit 'unhappy' for no apparent reason. She now pretty much only cries if something is up….food, sleep or wind….
6. She has just moved into 0-3month old clothing. Few bits of newborn still fit her but she is pretty much out…thats a little bit sad….
7. Still working the Mohawk 🙂
8. She likes to lay down and watch the world go by or sit up in her chair and do the same….not a big fan of the in between positions.
9. She is ticklish…just waiting for those giggles to follow…
10. Starting to talk, cute coos and gurgles…seems to have lots to say 😉
11. She tolerates lots of slightly over excessive cuddles from her siblings with pretty good humour……minimal complaints, well as yet anyway
12. Nearly 3 months in and we are enjoying being a family of six. She brightens up the day. Oh how we love her…..
