Paul parents have been here for the past 8 weeks to meet their first grandchild and to help me out whilst I recovered from surgery. I don't know who will miss who more as William got used to lots of attention and play time!!
The battle for the newest AFL team supporter is under way - Greg asked me who William will barrack for and I told him and others - that whoever gave him his first piece of football clothing could have him as the teams newest supporter as neither Paul or I follow AFL. A couple of days later a small parcel arrived from Pop (my dad) with a Collingwood beanie inside for William. Nana (my mum) was not very pleased as she did not know that Dad and gone and bought and posted the beanie - and yes he was first! Then whilst we were on holidays with both sets of grandparents we visited the local craft market and Nana came across a Brisbane Lions home knited beanie and quickly purchased it for William - all whilst Pop was looking the other way - you can imagine the laughter when my Dad saw William wearing his newest beanie - and the battle continues!!
Have baby will travel - there are a couple of shots below of William sleeping on a bean bag on a table at a winery on the Mornington Peninsula.
William now weighs 6.5 kilos and has started on solids - much to his disgust - he screws up his face and spits the cereal or pear puree straight back out again, so we might wait a little bit longer. He is the happiest baby, all laughs and smiles first thing in the morning and most of the day and loves being flown around the room in Paul's arms - he chuckles and simply loves it!! I have warned Paul to wait for his milk to settle, but you know Paul!! - no little accidents yet!!!
