Here are some photos of Ryan with Nana. She's been holding down the fort for us - Daniel is going to miss her attention and help next week when Mum is busy.
Ryan does look a lot like Daniel as a baby so far. He seems to have the same blue eyes as Daniel (thanks Poppy). He is feeding and growing well. At one week old he was already 8.5oz (approx 240g) heavier than his birthweight. So we suspect that he is at least 8lb at the moment.
Daniel is noticing more and more that Mummy is busy. Sometimes he is happy to share with Ryan (like at nappy-changing time). Ryan loves to watch his big brother, especially up close! He has been hit in the head with a tennis ball once, but it upset Daniel more than Ryan, so hopefully won't happen again for a while.
Ryan went to church for the first time on Sunday, and has been to playgroup as well. We are being blessed by meals from our friends which definitely makes things easier.
Nathan has less than 4 weeks to go til he is done. He is making the most of Mum being here and getting study done during the evenings too, despite being very tired. Daniel has a cough which is keeping Nana and Mum awake at night, we are hoping that none of us (particularly Ryan) catch it.
