Likes & Dislikes

Well Bobby is 2 months old today!! How quickly has that gone!!! I'd describe his temperament now as totally chilled out. He's happy to just watch the world go by and the lovely thing is we're getting more and more smiles with each day that passes. I wanted to capture in this post some of the things he currently loves to remind him of when he's older.

So some of his Likes include.....

Being Outdoors
He loves the awe and wonder of being outside. Sometimes on the occasion when he's crying and we can't settle him we just take him into the garden and he loves it! We enjoyed a lovely picnic with Hannah and Will today and he was as chilled as anything, having a little nap on the grass and then enjoying the fresh air.

Keeping Active
Every morning he does his sit ups with Daddy. This is not so he can get a 6 pack (he has a big jelly one pack at the mo like his Mum!) but apparently it's supposed to strengthen his neck muscles so he can hold his head.  We give him a big cheer when he sits up and he's started giggling at this! He also loves being out and about in my brand new running buggy; we managed our first run together on Monday and are aiming to complete our first Park Run together this Saturday.

Loving the Out and About Sport Nipper Buggy!

In The Night Garden
I had never heard of this before! God knows what these weird and wacky creatures are but he seems to find them hilarious!

His Dressing Gown
After his baths we always put him in his dressing gown (thank you Hayley!). It's way too big for him but this means a) it will last and b) he's even more cuddly!!! Quite often he will fall asleep in it....melts my heart!

Sunday Morning Lie Ins
As much as possible we have a lie in on a Sunday and cuddles and chatter in bed before getting up. I always try to use that time to really stop and savour the moment....these days are going so quickly I want to enjoy and remember them all before they whizz by us!

Other Babies
Bobs seems to be really chillaxed around other babies. It's not so much that he interacts with them but I think he enjoys hearing their babbling around him and takes in his surroundings. Bumps and Babes on a Monday continues to be a hot favourite along with Moo Music on Thursdays.

Chilling with his mates

In terms of dislikes I'm not too sure.  Bobby used to hate getting changed and having his nappy changed but he doesn't seem to get too fussed by this now.  I'm not too sure if he likes his baths as much as he used to as we have some real tears now (there's something about real tears that's so heartbreaking!)!

The exciting thing is that we're doing more and more all the time and so as his personality unfolds, so will his likes and dislikes.  Next up on the list is swimming.....I'm keeping my fingers crossed he likes this so he can be my new training partner!
