Baby Mason at 4 weeks old




The past 4 weeks have been the hardest but also the best of my life. We moved house (twice if I count moving out from Liam's mum where we stayed for a couple of weeks after baby's arrival) and obviously got stuck into parenthood and got used to having a 3rd person around us.

On tuesday the royal baby was born as well so Is baby mania at the moment so Mason will definitely have some friends to play with.

Mason's progress:
He is a very strong little boy and he is always lifting his head and being nosy even though he shouldn't be able to do it yet. He has gained over a pound from his birth weight so at the last weight in (4 days ago) he was 9lb1oz which is normal for his age.
He is still a very sicky baby :( but I am taking him to the GP again in 2 days and I will insist to get referred to a pediatrician as I'm sure this is not normal. We changed his bottles, his formula milk 3 times, used colic drops and nursed him more than usual and his is still sick after each feed. Because he is so sick all the time he is always hungry and not sleeping becuase he's hungry so our days can get very long.
We have a little routine now with sleeping at night : bath with me or Liam around 10/11 at night, bottle of milk (around 4 to 5oz) and then we all pray for a 12:30-1am sleep until 4am until another feed and change is due then another sleep until 7:30 -8am ( this sleep is sometimes in bed with us, naughty but we all love it). Just after Liam goes to work we then get in bed for a mid morning sleep until 10,11am depending on what we are doing that day.

He is an amazing boy and everyone loves him, whenever we go and see anyone he is very well behaved and just faboulous in general. I love taking pictures of him and showing him off because he is so beautiful.
