Ten weeks old tonight! We've had a good week on the sleeping front...the weather has been quite wet so I've had a lot of time to devote to implementing a day time sleeping routine. Joseph has responded quite well and only cries for a little bit before nodding off. The late afternoon sleep is proving the most difficult to get him to adopt but I'm perservering! We're turning the monitor off when he cries...so much easier to pretend we're good parents when we can't hear him cry!

His fingernails grow so fast and I seem to be cutting them every couple of days. Most mornings when I go to get him from his cot there will be a new scratch on his face, usually around the eye area - it doesn't seem to bother him at all.

Here's Joseph in his Baby Gap towelling tracksuit (thanks to Steve and Cheryl Hoyle) - looking very "southside" in it too. It's been a big hit with the public when he's been seen wearing it.

On the developmental front...Joseph's head control is getting better, he's becoming more aware of his hands and his eye sight range continues to improve. Plus, we think he's very cute.
