The First Few Weeks

It's been so amazing watching this gorgeous little person growing and changing over the last few weeks.  It's wonderful seeing her turn from a wrinkly squashy newborn into a real chubby baby!


We had the best time footling about, snuggling and going on walks before Ed had to go back to the ship and off to sea.





Luckily Mathilda and I had some gorgeous warm weather to cheer us up.





Some people are very perky at 4am...


But there is also lots of sleeping going on - it's hard work being small!



It's magical watching her grow more and more alert, and I am currently enjoying huge gummy smiles - such a wonderful thing to wake up to!


I am becoming more and more inventive with distraction techniques, anything to buy a few extra minutes so I can brush my teeth or do the washing up!  The bug-in-a-rug technique is a current favourite.


The distraction works both ways, the days are flying by and I am crossing them off and counting them down until Ed gets home and our little family is complete once more.  Three weeks gone, four weeks to go...I can't wait!
