HENthusiastic Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hi everyone- it's K here as hen's having a well deserved snooze!! Thank you all for your lovely posts, congrats & welcomes to (not so little) joe! I hear your cries for picci's but I'm so useless with technology I can't help I'm afraid, so I hope a little update will do instead Joe's doing well since he came home from hospital sat aft. He has quickly become boss of the household though & had us up most of sat & sun night. Unsurprisingly he loves his grub (will fit in well) but seems to enjoy hours of snoozing then munching....snoozing then munching.....little monkey- hence our sleepless nights. Anyway- we were rather sleep deprived yest when we were visited by a fabulous midwife who has helped us get into a better feeding pattern (joe's already plotting his revenge against her)!! We've to stop the poor love dozing off mid feed (which seems to be his fave pass time) & make sure he gets a nice full belly before he goes down- touch wood it's working and he happily sleeps for 3-4hrs! Fingers crossed this carries on. Anyway- promise we will sort pix soon- & hopefully he will meet some of you at the next yorkshire Omlet gathering. He's looking forward to having cuddles with Laurie & Mostin this aft!!! Sleepy hen, chunky joe & K. Xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Absolutely adorable!!!!! Laurie, did you kiss those squidgy cheeks? He looks like one contented wee man there. You both look so happy with him too - I am impressed that HEN has managed to do her hair for the photo, I think I was still covered in baby sick at that stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chook n Boo Mum Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 ....as I was scrolling down the pics I though...ooo that must be aunty Laurie having a snuggle! Beautiful family shot and cross stitch...is it a kit Mostin? Well someone had to ask All this talk of big bubbas ...my pelvic floor is getting a good workout DS was a dinky (by comparison) 8lb, now 16 & 5ft 10. *sigh* make the most of cuddlies & snuggles ladies, they are diddly for such a short time....

mostin Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Yes Sha it was a kit. An American one I think. I googled birth samplers with chicks or chickens and found it. Could not resist Laurie gave them a gorgeous baby grow. Wish I had snapped a shot of it, it said Free Range across it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
