On the 14th Jonathan weighed 10lb 8, he's doing really well now I'm so pleased. He's smiling now and laughing silently. He's also making gaga sounds. Our little boy is growing so fast every time he passes a milestone a have tears in my eyes. I'm so soppy. We're going to go get his photo done today for the Express and Echo's Baby and Toddler competition.

My Family

Jonathan is now 7 weeks and 3 days old. At the last weigh 1 week ago he weighed a very healthy 9lb 7. We are in the process of switching onto formula milk with added thickener, we discovered my breast milk and the formula on its own was too thin so Jonathan wasn't digesting it properly but he seems much better with the thicker feeds. He is becoming a lot more alert now, he will look at us more and be awake for longer in the day. He is also starting to outgrow some of his clothes so I bought a couple of things for the lovely warm weather.

We have had a few really lovely days this week, the weather has been gorgeous reaching temperatures of 27C, which Tony has been using to grow our vegetable patch. We are know growing a stock of:

Brussel Sprouts
Carrotts
Parsnips
Maris Piper Potatoes
Onions
Garlic
Grapes
Blackcurrant
Raspberries

Tony is also growing Sunflowers, he got me to pick one each for Jonathan and Buddy and also one for myself, he's labelled them so as they grow we know who's is who's.

I finished putting the wedding invites together today, I even made one for Mum and Dad which I have to admit I am quite proud of myself as I have never made a card before.
