Stats and More

I thought it is time that we add some of Solly's updated statistics.
AGE: 11 weeks today
Weight: 5715 grams
Height: 61.5 cm
Head: 44cm
Solly is a great little baby. We got to Movers and Shapers, which is a post natal exercise class and he hangs out with heaps of other babies. He is feeding about 7 times a day and sleeps for a short time in the morning, a little bit longer over lunch and a long sleep in the afternoon. He generally goes to bed around 7pm, has a feed at 10pm and is up between 4am and 5am. So we are coping pretty well.
But as you can see he is not an unhappy boy. He likes getting tickles, but does not know how to laugh yet, so he smiles, goes bright red in the face and starts to cough. Very cute!
His favorite thing to do is to lie on his play mat, with toys hanging down, and smaking them as hard as he can so the whole thing shakes. Entertainment for hours. And he also likes to hit puff the magic dragon, as puff has rattles in his hand and tail and lots of other exciting things that make noise and move.
He is such a joy! Phil is on holidays from school at the moment, so Solly & Daddy are having lots of bonding time. Phil's even looking after Solly and his friend Layla tomorrow...should be interesting for him!!!

    Lucky boy!
