Our little gaffer

Is getting HUGE! I was putting him in his car seat the other day and realized just how freaking big he is now. I remember taking him home from the hospital and he just fit in the croook of the seat - he was so tiny. Now he takes up the majority of the seat (or so it seems).

He holds his head up for minutes at a time. When you hold him against your chest he looks up at you with his gorgeus navy blue eyes. He smiles, makes these little knowing grins, moves his head towards sound (especially voices that he knows) and can follow your movement. He loves doing his stretches (when he's lying on his back and you pull him up towards you) and he does little push ups now, it's so frigging cute.

He's growing up fast. I think he's going through a growth spurt right now (his 6 week growth spurt but because he was 2 weeks early it's just happening now) because he eats almost every hour. He's a bit fussy today, he's fighting sleep, you can see him struggling to keep his eyes open. He's been sleeping for almost an hour and a half now (he normally sleeps for 3-4 hours in the afternoon) so we'll see how long he's down for.

Look at how wired he is!
