Happy little chappie!!

Here is a picture taken this afternoon of Mr T playing with some of his toys...what a happy little chappie he is! Thomas was weighed on Thursday and we're pleased that he' still gaining weight which is a good sign. He now weighs 15lb 12oz so he's gained 12oz in two weeks, not only are the elastic bands around his wrists getting tighter but he's even got some round his little ankles ow too!! The doctor and health visitor advise that I stick to just breast feeding him and to not try him with the bottle or solid foods until he's nearer six months, this will ensure he gets as much of "the good stuff" from me and should help him with the eczema and fighting off the coughs/colds/flu that is doing the rounds. Oh well another few weeks of very little sleep for me...good job he's so gorgeous!!!

Here is Thomas straight after having his first porridge bath tonight! Yes I did write that down correctly, a porridge bath. The homeopath suggested we run the bath with the water running through porridge oats to give it a natural creamy feeling in the water.

Not quite sure what he thinks.....your comments please!!!

He sure looks happy! In Canada there is a line of products called Aveeno made with oats, bath products and soaps and such especially for people with skin problems. I think they have a baby line of products as well. Would you like me to get some when I am home?
