Hello My little Mitchell,
You've been settling in well at home, despite Gregory to trying to pick you up at every chance! You're still feeding well and are so quiet when you wake up.
On Sunday afternoon, Naomi came over to visit and had a long cuddle (she didn't want to to put you back in your bassinet!!) She said that you are adorable (I smiled and nodded and totally agreed!).
Monday morning was fun. Chelsea was here because Aunty Lynda was working. Chelsea came over to say hello to you a couple of times but was busy playing with Gregory.In the afternoon Aunty Megs dropped by for a surprise visit. Dad, Gregory and I had planned to take you shopping on our first 'family' outing.... It was nice coz Aunty Megs came too. She didn't have Makayla with her :o(. While we were shopping, Gregory had his photo taken on a motorbike and Aunty Megs held you...... I think she is quite clucky!! You were such a good boy while we were out, even though Gregory tried to hold your hand, give you his toy car, and the car keys quite a few times!! We also saw the neighbours from across the road who were happy to come over and meet you :o).
The midwife came to check up on you ;o) on Tuesday. She weighed you... you're above your birthweight already so they are quite happy with you!! Amie (the midwife) will be back next Tuesday. We also went down to your Dads work and said hello and checked how long he has til he goes back to work. He has at least another week at home helping out :o) We stopped by Great Gran A's house and Gran was so happy to finally hold you. I just happened to have the camera with me ;o)Grandma and Grandad dropped by on Tuesday night but both you and Gregory were sleeping!! ah well :o)
Yesterday we spent the day at home. Your Nanna Cook dropped by on her way home from work, and you had just stirred as it was feed time. I think Nanna is nearly as clucky as Megs!! She thinks that you are just perfect and held you for ages :o)Today Aunty Megs came around to visit. Your dad is giving her a hand with a job that she had to do. This time Makayla came too!! Makayla wasn't too sure about you... she wasn't really aware or interested yet..... Maybe she was too busy trying to fend off Gregory (the bully!!). They stayed around after lunch and watched LOST with us. Aunty Megs had another hold of you but handed you back when she realised you needed a change!! hehe.... smelly!!
Today we also appeared in the Dubbo 'Photo News' from when we were at the hospital. I scanned it so everyone can see it. I think it's a lovely photo.Anyhow, You're looking gorgeous, I could hug you all the time but there are other things I have to do.....
Sleep well and Sweet Dreams Mitchell,
love,
Mummy
