Sweet little wonder

It's hard to believe that a month has gone by since little Darian was born. But on the other hand, everyday has been such a blur that it's not too hard to comprehend. In between the feeds, baths, sleeps and nappy changes, that we've been parents for a full month. What a joy our little boy has been. When I say I have the best baby in the world, I am truly not boasting or tooting anyone's horn. He has been such a blessing, he sleeps when he is meant to sleep, eats when he is meant ot eat and just does what needs to be done with no complaint. We've had a bit of a problem with winds but he never complains or cries about it. We've tried it all but everything seems to have the same effect and so we've just learned that even if it means sitting with him for half an hour to get him to break a wind, it's something that needs to be done. We've tried to put him into a routine and although we have a few days of him wanting to suck all day long he's been great. Deb, our midwife and our Plunket nurse are both really impressed with him and the progress he's made. He has steadily put on weight and is now a whopping 4.5kg's. We've had no issues with him at all and can't be more grateful. I've had nights where I sleep for 4 hours but for the most part I'm getting a good 7 hours a night because he sleeps when he is meant to and wakes up every 3 hours for a feed. Not much has happened in the last month, except of course the arrival of Cameron's parents and Bradley and Shamini who are all very besotted with our little man. We go for his 6 week check up in a few days and this week is Deb's official last visit with us, that's going to be a hard one to deal with as we've been so attached to her for so long. Here's the latest pics of little Darian.
