Poor Baby

Poor Aden is not feeling well at the moment...a cough and lots of sneezes...he is still feeding fine although a little fussy for day sleeps and taking a little longer to settle at night...I'd say last night was the most difficult it has been to get him to sleep...I had to hold him for a little while longer than normal and naughty Mummy, cause she wanted to watch the Broncos smash the Dragons, took him out to the lounge room for cuddles! No lasting effects though as he went down again tonight in his room with no extra cuddles.

We left Aden at home for the first time on Firday night so we could go to a work function of mine. Uncle Beau and Aunty Nicole did a wonderful job of baby-sitting. Thanks guys!

Aden had his 6 week check up this week as well...He is now 5202 grams...almost a kilo more than his birth weight. All that milk he is getting is going somewhere at least...rather than straight into his nappy....although it looks that way sometimes!

How beautiful are his eyes getting...they were quite dark at birth but have lightened up alot...I love his baby blues!

7 weeks post baby....not bad I think...still a bit more to go though!

AJ sounds/looks like you've got this "Mother" thing down pat.
He's gorgeous and so are you.
Great for you both to do some normal going out things too.

{3rd Birthday} Octonauts party

Image
It has been a week two weeks since Aden's Octonauts party and I think I have recovered enough to post about it. Special thanks to my sister for gabbing my camera and my MIL and SIL for their cameras, as I didn't take any all day! Aden is a massive Octonauts fan! So when he didn't go for my initial plan of a 'Monsters' Party ( too scary Mummy!) we decided on Octonauts. I did a lot of Internet searching and looking at a lot of Pintrest posts to gather all my ideas together.  There was lots of party food including Octonaut Cupcakes. Cake toppers from Ebay  And a Kwazii cake as requested by the birthday boy! I totally forgot to put on the Octopus I had for his hat!! We also had yellow/green/blue jelly cups with turtles in them and smarties cookies. As well as regular party food and hot finger food for the adults. Mummy wiping Aden's face before having cake photos! We had balloons, a birthday banner and streamers.
