Next Stage

We've moved Mikey out of our room and into his own room now and he's now in his cot! To be honest he had out grown his moses basket... when he stretched he filled it completely so it really was time to move him! The only thing is he looks so tiny in his cot... I could fill it with soft toys to keep him company but knowing him they'd all end up on his face! So Mum would spend all night checking he was still breathing and not being smothered by a bear...

The first night was a little unsettled but we've soon learnt that he is like Daddy and needs noise (a radio) and a little light and then we get a nice quiet night! (well so far we have at least!) We haven't yet rolled over or anything exciting like that but we are very good at doing leg slams - and now we have the 'It's a Small World' Mobile up and playing that triggers even more! I think that will be a ride to avoid if we ever visit WDW with him!! I'm not sure how the boat would react to a Mikey leg slam!

We're slowly building up to Christmas, thankfully the snow has melted. I now know that I am getting old, it was pretty for the first day then I was totally fed up with the stuff and just wanted it to go. We showed it to Mikey through the window - after all he isn't really big enough to go and play in it yet, and his reaction was one of being completely unimpressed! Maybe next time he will be in more of a mood to find out how to play with the stuff!!!! But the next 'big' thing I think will be the Christmas tree when we get round to putting it up! I have a feeling the lights will be a big hit with him as we have little twinkly white ones which have a changeable 'pattern' so I can play 'confuse the baby' to my hearts content!! Only joking, I'll have to hide the controller incase he works out how to change it himself!
