Immunisation Pt.2

Today Joshua had his second lot of immunisations - another javelin in each leg!. He was extremely brave again although he did cry a lot after the second needle went in. Needless to say there was some serious soothing by sucking Dad's finger as his trousers were buttoned up! After that it was off to see the Health Visitor to get his bi-weekly weigh-in completed. Based on the growths curves I estimated that he should have been around 13lb 10oz and he actually weighed 13lb 12oz (close enough) - that an increase of 1lb 2oz from 2 weeks ago!. This evening he has been really cranky despite having some Calpul.

Yesterday we took Joshua for a little walk out to Maldon Promenade for some fresh air. This turned out to be a bit of a workout for me as he did not want to stay in his buggy and wanted to be carried everywhere so that he could see all the boats etc. So my left arm is now about 6" bigger than my right (he still won't let me swap arms!!!!). The picture below shows Joshua with a statue of an Anglo Saxon (aka the jolly green giant).

And some more snaps from Maldon........


It hurts me to say that Joshua may be a future Karaoke fan. As you can see from the picture below he was very at home with a Wii microphone in hand!

But then he redeemed himself slightly by having a manly footy chat with a fellow gooner (my brother).

Anyway to end this blog update check out the little dudes Top Gun flight jacket in the picture below - anyone got any baby RayBan's available? Just compare Joshua to the picture of Tom Cruise in his Top Gun flight jacket - spot the difference, yeh you got it, Joshua is taller than Tom already!!!!!
