It is Ron's first Halloween, but we didn't make a big deal out of it - we carved a pumpkin and watched scary videos. It was an emotional day however, as I realised that my hormones were causing me to see things in a negative light and I may need to talk to someone. Experience: First Halloween!
Parenting: Muddled perception The Halloween is fast approaching, the pumpkins were finally in the shop and James was excited to make some homebrew wine. Only this wasn't just another wine he was making, it was very special indeed - it was Ron's very first batch! Experience: First homebrew!
Lesson Learned: Better bedtime bath routine Today, Ron put his best clothes on and met another island baby. . . Then we were bouncing, dancing and deciding which popular songs made good baby lullabies! Experience: Meeting with another baby
Parenting: Choosing lullabies I'd be very surprised if my baby's first word is anything other than a simple "hello" - it is a very natural conversation starter and I can't help but excitedly greet my little baby, every time I look at his little adorable face! Experience: Play bath!
Ron is only 9 days old but has already outgrown his newborn outfits! Then again, he is eating so well, I am really not surprised he'd grown this much! Milestone: Newborn outfits outgrown
