and one without the dummy:

I feel slightly foolish for putting him in this outfit, but even I have to admit that it's pretty freaking cute! And it feels so warm and cozy, which is important these days...I keep noticing our room thermometer saying 13!!! It's so good we got that room heater.

Well, the exciting news is that Eden is starting to smile... accidental as it may be, it still has happened more than once! Last night he gave me 2 smiles, so I ran upstairs so he could 'perform' again for daddy... but I wasn't successful. I sat in the room for ages trying to get another smile, but no luck!!

Eden is having more awake time all the time, which now means that I'm struggling to know what to do with him! He is more content being on his own (provided his belly is nice and full) and will spend time lying on the activity mat...although i do think he stares more at the wall than the toys. 

He's also getting noticeably bigger. For me I can tell when I hold him post feed...he's getting longer than my torso!!!

Tomorrow morning the Longridge Nursery Nurse is coming to show me how to do some baby massage that will help with all his wind. That's exciting. I think touch is a super important form of communication and so I'm excited to be able to this in a way that can help him.

That's all for now...sorry addicts.
