I went on my first trip on the tube with Mummy this week. We went to visit Granny and Grandad in Hackney and Mummy wanted to try out travelling a bit further than Tooting! It was actually really easy. Mummy took me in my baby carrier and discovered that London Bridge station has lifts from the platform to the street which is really helpful for when Mummy takes me in my buggy. We got off there and jumped on the bus that went straight to Granny and Grandads house. It was a really good journey and was nice to see the sights of London and to be away from Tooting for a while! I think we'll definately do it again - maybe in my buggy next time!
Mummy and Daddy have been reflecting on how much I've changed since I was born. Mummy remembers how people used to say that things will get easier as time goes by and she's beginning to agree - she didn't believe that it would though at the time! My colic has all gone now and I don't suffer with trapped wind as bad as I used to so I cry a bit less at nighttime. Mummy and Daddy are enjoying having their evenings back. On Saturday night they enjoyed a chilled evening eating pizza and relaxing in front of the TV, Mummy really thought those evenings had disappeared and would never come back! Mummy's happy that I'm a bit more settled into a routine now and that I know when it's bedtime so Mummy and Daddy can have their time!
I've also changed in the way that I communicate to Mummy and Daddy. Instead of crying all the time when I want something (like I used to), I've learnt to make new sounds and I enjoy babbling to myself. When I wake up now I just babble and coo so Mummy has a gentle call to wake up and feed me. If she takes too long to come to me then I'll increase the volume and cry for a bit - sometimes though I end up falling asleep again if I'm not that hungry and don't really need feeding. Mummy has to be a bit of a mind-reader sometimes guessing if I'm hungry or not!
