Joshua is really settling down well now. Last night he had a feed at about 11.30pm and then we set him down, to our amazement he slept right through to 2.30am. This may not sound much, but 3 hours of undisturbed sleep was heaven after the previous nights. Then this morning Joshua and Tina both crashed from about 7.30 to 11.30am!
We had to wake the little boy as the midwife turned up just before lunch. She took some blood samples from his heal which he really didn't like that. Then she weighed the little fellow and he is now around 8lb 10oz which she said is well within the 10% weight drop they expect in the first week or so.
After the midwife left we dressed Joshua and then he was really alert so we had a wonderful hour and a half of play/learning time with the little boy. As you can see from the pictures he put on his combat trousers and entered into his little jungle play gym for the first time. PS The last file is my first attempt at putting a video file on the blog - hopefully it works.

Hi all at Wick Palace,
Wow, what lovely piccies. Sorry hadn't looked for a few days but caught up now. He is definitely getting more gorgeous by the day which is pretty unbelievable seeing as he was so gorgeous anyway! So pleased you both got some much needed sleep at last, hopefully a sign of things to come eh?!
Did warn you about the Guthrie test! Just remember thinking you've hurt my baby! I know it's for a good reason but think about it, would you like a needle jabbed in your heel?!
Really pleased that you are all settling into family life so well. You all look very content in the photos. (Unfortunately we were unable to view the video) Keep up the good work!
take care and bye for now Nicky xxx
