I haven't blogged in awhile - Sorry!
But the reason has been a good one. It seems like every week gets a little bit better, and Finn and I are starting to understand each other that little bit more. So the reason I haven't blogged this week is because I've been getting out and about! I try to get outside at least once a day, but this week we've also been doing stuff!
Things we've accomplished this week almost without meltdowns (or with manageable ones at least):
Going out to lunch
Hanging out in a coffee shop
Shopping (and trying clothes on!!)
Wandering a museum
Walking to visit James at work
Having a quiet drink in a pub
It's been brilliant! I do say almost without meltdowns... I will admit to a few crying fits from time to time. But I never panicked, and sorted things out. If that meant feeding him in the pub, that's what I did. If that meant pacing back and forth shushing him on the bus, that's what I did. We worked it out.
I'm quite pleased with both of us and so happy that I'm starting to find ways to live a not-entirely-baby-centric life. Now if only we could get the nights sorted out so that I wasn't too exhausted to enjoy it!
Baby steps.
In other exciting news, we're off to America tomorrow!!!
I can't wait!
I wanted to share that excitement with Finn - sort of like the parents that video their kid's reactions when they find out that they're going to Disney World... I figured he would be equally as thrilled and I was right!!
Here it is:
Now, as awesome as that is, a post would not be a post without pictures... so here they are! This week I wanted to explore the fact that Finn is definitely one to let us know when he is unhappy. He has this sort of warning cry that isn't full on - but is enough to say "whatever it is that we're doing right now is NOT what I want to be doing.'
So for every happy picture we have the companion...
But for the most part, He's still a pretty cool little dude...
