Day 23

I'm already three weeks old. As my breastfeeding skills have been improving (through hard work rather than talent, I admit), I'm off to the parents' room. The idea is for me to demonstrate I can feed completely on my own. If I do, there'll be talk of going home.

Once settled in the new room, off we went to the World Outside.

I seem to take after mum - I fall asleep soon after driving off. Mum said dad wouldn't approve of that at all, and that I had a serious conversation coming. Oh well.

Auntie Louise joined us for the walk. I like her a lot. Just look at that coat!

Auntie Pramilla came in a bit later. I might look suspicious here, but boy I like that auntie too.

But there's one person I adore above all others. And yes, I know it sounds cheesy. But it had to be said - it's true

P.S. The parents' room didn't work for me. They say I lost too much weight overnight. BS. I reckon the scale was playing up. I made that weight up, and then some, the following day. Next attempt on Sunday night. Stay tuned.

Day 19

Another good day. Funky outfit, for a start.

With my energy level up, I realise there are loads of interesting things going on around me. Most importantly, I realise that, close up, my parents are funny looking people.

Had my second bath, this time with dad. Nice guy but he has no idea what he's doing. I had to monkey my way to the water. Just look at this... really.

Things are coming together on the home front. Many kind people have been sending clothes and plenty of practical things for me. Thumbs up folks!

Day 15

My first bath! Not bad. Not bad at all

Managed to get rid of that annoying tube. Feels good.

All of this is rather exhausting. See you later y'all

Day 12

Mum and dad been in twice today. Always a thrill (yeah right). Some modest success breastfeeding, although not enough to do without a top-up.

Dad changed me in the afternoon ...

How's that for cute?

We both fell asleep after the feed. Awesome.

My parents have been shopping today. They had a long list of stuff. Got through most of it today, and my room is filling up. Can't wait to rampage that.

Day 11

Easy peasy at the nursery. Little progress on the breastfeeding front. Now off the electric blanket and still toasty.
