It's hard work being a baby...

Well everyone, here I am at nearly 4 weeks old just lazing around on Mum's big ol' lap. Do you like my swanky purple mittens?

I went on my first holiday the other day. We went to Rotorua to stay with Nana & Poppa Thomas (via Hamilton for a quick visit with Nana & Poppa D of course!). I decided that this holiday was the right time to perfect my "wake every 2 hours during the night" routine. Mum and Dad weren't very impressed.

I am putting on weight hand over fist. I put on 440 grams last week and the average is 200g per week, so I am way up there with the big boys!! Mum must have great full-cream milkers to drink from. The midwife is coming again tomorrow to weigh me - I reckon I've put on heaps more weight - this is her last visit though and then I go to Plunket for weighing.

Well that's all from me for now - I've got to go and sleep some more... whew!! It IS hard work being a baby.
