I seem to have settled into some sort of vague routine. I start the day with a feed somewhere around 7 or 7.30am. Then I have a little sit in the bouncer while watching Mum or Dad make Oskar brekkie, before heading back to bed for another sleep. I wake around 10 or 10.30 for another feed and after that I usually hang out on the floor. I might lie on my tummy for a while, watching Mum hang out the washing, or lie on my back, randomly swooshing at the dangly things over my head. I rarely connect with them, although this morning I managed to kick a dangly bit. I've been practicing rolling from my front to my back, although I seem to get stuck halfway inbetween because I roll onto the side bars of my playgym. I'm also practicing sticking my legs up in the air and lifting my head at the same time. Once I've been awake for about an hour, I head back to bed again. Often I wake up and cry for my dummy; then Mum or Dad come and put it back for me. I've also been working on getting my arms out of the wrap. The only problem with that is that I usually knock the dummy out. I'll have a bit of a suck on my fingers, but it's not quite the same. So that's my usual pattern, although I stay awake longer in the evening and might cry just a bit. Actually quite a lot some nights although I don't really know why. Anyway, Daddy cuddles me and I feel better - as long as he doesn't put me down. Then eventually I fall asleep and wake sometime in the early morning (somewhere between 2.30 and 4am) for a quick feed and then straight back to sleep again until morning.
This morning I went out for a walk in a park. I spent a bit of time straining forwards trying to look over the top of my pram, but mostly I watched the trees swaying in the wind. Mum held me up so I could watch Oskar on the swing - boy was he enjoying himself! That's definitely something to look forward to.
It's Daddy's birthday today. Happy Birthday Daddy! I gave him a card that Mum and I made yesterday - I sat on her lap and supervised her photoshopping a photo of me. I was pretty happy with the results and I think he liked it. So lots of cuddles for Daddy today.
