It was a bit of mutual lovin’. He squeaked; cooed and smiled, while I made silly noises at him and smiled back. It was so lovely to have some real interaction with my son. He is such a total joy. Christopher now weighs 3.4kg and is 47.5cm long. he is finally growing steadily and is just that much closer to coming home and I can’t wait. I have been so patient for the last 11 weeks, but now I just want to bring my little man home, which is where he belongs.

I will take a photo of them tomorrow. He had a very good day, and its likely that Christopher will be home sometime next month. He has a sleep study on July 31 to monitor his breathing and then with a bit of luck he will be home not long after that. Yipeeeee! Can’t wait for that. Its getting harder and harder to leave him of a night after spending the day with him. He is so alert and looks at you quite intently whilst you speak to him, to which he responds with little squeaks, “goos” and “gahs”. He really is such a pleasure to be around. Christopher now weighs 3225 grams and his head circumference is 33.6cm. They haven’t measured his length for a little while, so I am not sure how long he has grown since the last time they measured him.
