Settling in

(posted by Elizma)

Liam is settling in nicely at home. He's really just a pleasure (apart from his habit of not wanting to sleep between 22:00 and 02:00 at night), but once he's off, he sleeps a good 5 hours at a stretch. We're not complaining!

At the moment, Leon and I are taking it in turns to get up in the night, but that might change when Leon has to go back to work in a week's time. We'll just have to see how that goes... Luckily my Mom and Dad will be over from South Africa by that time.

In the meantime, we've already had our first outing to town yesterday and Liam had his first experience of Starbucks - Mom's favourite coffee place. We also went shopping for some blue things - Mom wanted something to stop people having to ask or refer to him as a she/her.

And today we all went to the optometrist for Leon to have his eyes tested. Afterwards we again went for a coffee in our local Italian coffee shop. He really enjoys travelling in his pram and sleeps all the time.

My only complaint is that he seems to grow by the minute! Is anyone aware of a little pill I can give him to keep him this small...?

More awake every day
