George was still recovering from his immunisations - evidenced by upset sleep and feeding routines. I ended up taking George to Plunket for a weigh in as I was worried he wasn't feeding enough. However, he'd put on 330gm since his weigh in 10 days previously (he's now 6.5kg). They did however recommend pushing his feeds out to every fours. I started that last Friday and it has taken a few days to get things sorted. We've also stopped wrapping George when he goes to sleep - so he's had to adjsut to have his arms free. Dan has also started giving George a bottle about 11pm - we're trying (very hard) to get George sleeping a bit longer through the night. That's still a work in progress!
He's going great guns with his tummy time and he loves sucking his hands. We were wondering if there was a tooth coming through...I'm not entirely sure but it does feel quite suspicious down on the gum line!
Here's a picture of George and I taken last Friday - he's got a cute (new) suit from Grandma Milly on.
Joseph is in a bit of a "tidy tidy" phase and likes to have a cloth on hand when he eats, dislikes crumbs being on the table and likes to line up his trucks and cars. Here's evidence of this - downstairs on the table and then upstairs in bed. He likes to take various vehicles to bed and Dan is often dispatched downstairs to fetch a "missing" car or truck before he will go to sleep.
He also had his haircut on Saturday (photos next week) - this was the first time that he didn't cry and we got a better hairtcut as a result. After the haircut, Joseph and I went to Kelly Tarlton's (the aquarium) with Finn (and his Mum, Megan, and Finn's brother, Myles). Joseph has been talking about the "train" we went on and also the whale (a mechanical orca's head that comes out of the water at the end of the train trip (the train is a little motorised wagon that goes past the penguins in the antarctic section).
Finally, here's a variation on the usual brother photo...
Joseph looks enormous in comparison to George!
