His first wellies



Sorley had a great time stomping around the garden with his wellies on. Tomorrow I think we'll take him for a proper walk down town now that I've found the reins, he's a hundred percent steady on his feet and has a huge amount of energy.


He had his MMR jag a couple of days ago which he coped with extremely well. I did extensive reading up beforehand because of the 'scare' and feel fully satisfied and comfortable about allowing him to have the jag.




check out the jammies!


Sorley's sleeping pattern hasn't quite recovered from the festive season and the last few nights he's been waking up at 3am, we bring him into bed and he plays, tosses and turns for 2-3 hours and eventually sleeps. We can't really go on like this so if he wakes up tonight and cries, it'll be heartbreaking, but we're not going to bring him into bed and hopefully he'll fall asleep fairly quickly in his cot. He still sleeps in our bedroom and can be hard to ignore when he stands in his cot and shouts MAM/DAD instead of the usual dada/mama! But I'm hoping he won't wake up.

Those wellies are just the ticket for a wee little man!!! I love them and the color!!!!

That picture of him is just too cute! What a cute little fellow he is. I can't believe he awakens you! What a scream! (literally!) I had a friend whose baby did that, and she would get up and play with him....yikes! It continued on until she (finally) realized that was NOT the thing to do! You are probably right to just try to ignore him and let him settle back down. He will get the idea...Maybe feed him a nice bowl of oatmeal before he goes to bed...something that will "stick to his ribs" and cause him to relax. Perhaps that will keep him from his nocturnal vigil!

he never used to wake up at night, it's just a recent thing and last night he slept through to 8am, phew, so hopefully he's back onto his normal schedule!
