two weeks new

Two weeks seemed to have flown by.

And we were all really getting to know each other now

which was really lovely.

We had learned that you really liked to be warm and snuggly.

You always seemed happiest when you were having a cuddle under one of your blankets,

and you liked to be really cosy when you were sleeping or you would wake up.

You absolutely loved being cuddled so that you could put your ear to our chests.

We think that our heartbeats and heat were soothing to you

and perhaps reminded you of being in Mummy's tummy.

You were a big fan of your milk

and the only time you seemed to get really upset

was when you had to wait for your milk for some reason.

You were breastfeeding fantastically

and never seemed to waste a drop.

Daddy had to go back to work

the day before you turned two weeks old

and he gave you extra special cuddles on that first morning.

He really wasn't ready to leave you yet.

You were starting to spend more and more time awake

and taking in the world around you.

You liked to know what was going on

and would look in our directions

when you heard our voices.

It was amazing to think that you recognised our voices.

And you were really interested in staring at our faces

and getting to know what we looked like too.
