Thank you all so much for your lovely comments and for welcoming our son into the world. Even though we've never met it means so much and one day I'll be able to show him your comments and he'll appreciate it too!
This friday Ché Phoenix will be a month old! People really aren't lying when they say the time flies when you have a baby! I thought I'd do a brief photo recap post then I'll be back to regular posts (I hope...)
Our first photograph, unfortunate we had to be in hospital for the first few days but necessary so I can't be annoyed, just didn't like all the tags and monitors, not really my thing. Will do a post about the whole birth experience another time. Such a special moment, love this photo :)

He's a lucky boy to have such amazing Aunties :) |
So with my sisters visiting, Al's sister moving over here from England, midwife visits, friends visiting, taking him to be registered, visiting his grandparents lots and great grandparents, getting into a routine (sort of!), sleeping when we can and just cherishing every single moment, its been a busy busy few weeks!
A perfect few weeks though, becoming a mummy is everything I hoped it would be and more. Ché Phoenix is such an angel baby, sleeps up to 6 hours at a time at night, is so alert and strong, breast feeds like a champion, so relaxed, happy and just spreads joy to everyone who sees him! I feel so blessed to be part of his family, to be his mummy :)
Here's a few recent photos from my
Instagram account. I've been slightly addicted lately so if you want to see a few more of my family/day to day pics you can follow me there too or just bookmark the page if you don't do Instagram, but you should - it's fun!
Awww...so sweet, so tender! Yes, time flies, so enjoy every single moment!

ReplyDeleteGot so carried away with baby photos and thoughts that I forgot to say that I love the Instagram photo of the fry up. It is making my mouth water! It is years since I had a proper one in Belfast with all the works. I'm not sure I could eat a whole one now, though.
Deletehaha that fry wasn't even a full one! Was missing the black pudding and the potato bread! He really is getting so big now, out of all his newborn clothes :(
DeleteHe's really grown and such a handsome little fella.
