Ok, so we're into our 4th day of being full-time parents... and so far, we are LOVING it!!!

We have had projectile sick (it literally travelled 1.5 metres, soaking everything in it's path - pretty impressive!), fountain-esk pee and explosive poo in the bath (my wonderful husband did the clean up after that one - he's fantastic), and the sound of wind from either end is constantly with us... but it's WONDERFUL!!!

The Gilchrist's, having done getting pregnant, pregnancy and the first 3 months in about the most difficult way we could, seem at last to have hit a stage that seems easier than expected. He really is the most perfect baby. He sleeps for 4 - 5 hours between feedings - even through the night, and he really only cries when there is genuinely something wrong... He is a complete joy and he seems to be loving being home!

Hope you enjoy a few photos from his first few days living with his doting parents!

  1. Really pleased you're home as a family - enjoy every minute before you know it he'll be claiming he's taller than you ! (By the way there's no way Tom's taller than me at 16 - it's just his hair makes him look taller)

    God Bless
    Fred, Tom & Charlie
