Fun week.
Here is the weekly post.
We've been busy since Ethan spend more time awake, I have even less time at the computer.
He's been sleeping much better at night. After nursing, he'll sleep for 3-4hrs at a time which gives me a good 6hrs in total.
For the past 3 days, Adam has been down with a cold and has been banished to another bedroom. So I have been solely taking care of Ethan,which has turned out to be alot easier than I thought. He's feeling much better now.
In the morning when he wakes up, we chat and he gives me smiles after smiles. He plays in his bouncy chair or by himself on the bed while mommy gets dressed and gets a bite to eat. Later A-Ma comes by and we go for a drive in the car to an air conditioned malls or grocery stores. He loves to sit up in his stroller and take in his surroundings. Everywhere we go, we get lovely comments about Ethan being so handsome, having a raised nose, having a crease in his eyelids and having such fair and pinky skin. He's stays awake most of the afternoon and takes a couple of naps. While A-ma is here. i try to get laundry done or tidy up the house a bit.
We've bought a few more MANLY onsies for Ethan and he got his first haircut since he's been grabbing the sides of his head while discovering his arms and hand. Then he yanks on his hair- which makes him cry. I'll post pics of the haircut soon. Basically, the sides and back have been trimmed quite short but he still got his spiky top.
Ethan's also been to a dermatologist to find out what the red dry patches on his legs were. Turns out he's inherited Atopic Dermatitis from his mommy. Poor guy. So he has some weak hydrocortisone cream to put on it. It's already clearing up.
He's also been to visit the nanny and we will start getting him used to bottles and formula soon since it will be difficult for me to express milk with my schedule at the high school and there isn't a refrigerator. In mid- August, i'll be keeping Ethan company while at the nanny's until 8/30 when I have to go back to work. So hopefully he will get comfy in his daytime surroundings and be ok when school starts.
Gong Gong left for Canada yesterday and will be back in 7 days time and then on Friday, July 20th, Richard and Pam (Grampapa and Gramamazee) will be here!
That's pretty much all we've been up to.
Hope to hear from you all soon,
Joanne
