Well, as you've most likely heard by now, Ollie became a big brother on Tuesday 2 December. Lucy came home with Rach on Friday, and Ollie has been totally fascinated with her ever since. In fact, our main issue is trying to keep him out of her room while she's trying to sleep!
One blessing (among many) has been that he's not waking up in the night when Lucy does - so far. So although Rach and I might not be getting heaps of sleep, he's still trucking along as usual. He's been a very spoilt boy over the past week, getting to spend lots of time with his nan who he LOVES, and getting quite a few presents to help him forget that little Lucy is permanently elbowing into his life and taking away some of his parents' attention...
He's talking so much more these days, and seems to have new words almost every day. He's stringing together short sentences as well, and seems really keen to tell us all about whatever it is he's thinking at the time. It's lucky babies like a bit of background noise, because Ollie's providing a fulltime soundtrack pretty much all day every day!
Gosh, hasn't time flown?
