No problem Robyn my mum has a great grand nephew named Ashton, and she has to stop and think before she says Aston's name. lol

So far this little man has been a dream. since we have been home has woken twice nightly for feeding, and settles very easily going straight back to sleep, which is wonderful, because the mumma follows right behind!

Had two hypo's yesterday - so the diabeties is obviously still settling down, I have to remember to eat regularly still, breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea etc. otherwise I will still have them. also means that I will have to still be mindful about what I' m sticking in my mouth too.

Aston seems to have a wakeful time in the middle of the day. (about 4 hours 10.30 - 2.30 yesterday) He wasn't cranky - just didn't want to go to sleep. I was racking my brain yesterday trying to remember how long babies should be awake for before going back to sleep. I know its different for each child, but for the life of me can not remember what the general 'rule' is. All contributions as to what the norm is are greatly accepted lol.

My little helpers are still hovering around, doing what ever needs to be done. My DS Nathan is very emotional at the moment. Because yesterday was the first day that I had been at home by myself since coming home from hospital, I got a phone call from school because he was worried about me and Aston. I'm so glad the school let him call so that he could make sure I was ok. God love him. I think he is a little overwhelmed with emotion at the moment. One of the things that makes Nathan such a beautiful soul is his capacity to care so deeply.

Laura being that little bit bigger is able to do a few more things, like get Aston out of his cot. She is pretty chuffed with herself about that. I think if I let her she'd be changing his nappy, and burping him too! She is very much in love with him too, which is wonderful, as she was a little at sea with herself before he was born, because in her words "he was only her half brother" but she has gotten over that now, and loves him to bits.

Bit worried that DH may burn himself out with attentiveness. He has been incredible, and I'm loving every minute of it, but hey, he is only human. He is getting used to having the snuffling stretching grunting little boy around, and as he is a light sleeper wakes easily, worrying about if Aston is ok. Hopefully he will relax into it soon, and realise that those noises are Aston's sleeping noises.

Well, have a few phone calls to make, which should do while my hands are free. Have a good day everyone.
