Milestones

Thought I'd do a quick blog today as there have been some milestones this week.

Andrew has always loved his bath and one of the first things we filmed with our new video camera we bought a couple of weeks ago was his face as we put him in the water. His bath is actually under the change table which has been really handy so we don't have to lean over much. However, as he has grown so much, now it's a bit small for him. When he stretches out his feet touch one end and his head the other. Not much fun for playing and splashing about in! We do have a big bath but that really killed my back leaning over so we figured the best way to get around this is to get in the bath with him. Haven't actually tried that yet but probably will tonight. The other thing we thought of (well, actually, Sarah suggested it) was to put him in the shower with us. We've done that a couple of times this week and boy, does he love it! He completely relaxes and doesn't mind a bit when he gets water sprayed all over his face - he just blinks it out of his eyes. We've worked out this is a great idea when he's really stressed out and over-tired some evenings.

The other thing that's happened this week is that we've taken him out of the bassinet and put him in his cot! We put the whole basket in the cot for a day or so then yesterday he slept for all his naps and over-night in the cot. I can't believe how much he's grown already. He looked so tiny when we first put him in the bassinet and now he takes up nearly the whole thing! He still looks tiny now that he's in the cot though. Took some video of that too the other day.

Well, that's all for now. Will keep updating this with stuff like that when it happens.
