Top Tips for Babies

Hi Guys! It's Noah here. Mummy and Daddy are sleeping so I've crept onto the computer and hijacked their blog. I've only been alive now 10 days but I'm already picking up a trick or two.

No.1 Make Daddy work. At night time it's fair game to play up a little and this is what I do. What Daddy tries to do is hold me in his arms until I go into a deep sleep. When I'm in this supposed deep sleep he slowly walks me to my cot. He gently lays me down and then he works as quiet as a mouse to tuck me in. Just when he thinks I'm almost there..........I open up one eye slowly and then the other. He then realises I'm never going to go down and then starts all over again.

No.2 Don't take anything less than getting the best nights sleep possible. Sometimes, Daddy does manage to get me down on my cot for a few minutes before I realise that I'm in my cot and not in the best possible place to get my beauty sleep. Now the key to getting to this place is Mummy. To get to Mummy, what I do is start squeaking a little in my cot and kicking my legs to get Daddy's attention. Then he comes over and picks me up and I begin to try sucking on his arm as if I to want to feed. Of course I don't want to take anything that Daddy's offering me but it makes him think I'm hungry. I then get passed to Mummy and take up my position in the middle of the lovely double bed. Mummy and Daddy have just enough room either side of me to place one buttock on the bed with the other hangin off the edge. At this point I may take a suck or two or even just smile. It doesn't matter because I look sooooo cute they daren't move me.

No.3 Play time during nappy change. Yeah I did this a lot last night. The timing is crucial on this one. Simple really, I wait for Daddy to remove the dirty nappy and then a shoot my fountain straight into the air making everything wet. I'm actually aiming for Daddy's face and one day I know I'm going to get it. I did this the other day too when Aunty Lara was over. More recently, just after Daddy has taken off my dirty nappy and cleaned my bottom, I've pooped again!

There's lots and lots of fun to have with my parents and I'll keep you all posted.

Gagagugu for now.
