Enjoyable everyday









Here is one nice picture of when he was doing crosswords with granddad. Very exciting. The paper made Noises when one hit it!

Sometimes Alexander takes him for a shower ("what did you want, mum? You interrupted!")

First we couldnt find any names for Tristan Atreyu Alexander. Now he has lots; Fjunis, Mjukis, Spanisen, Little One, alongside with the usual vanilla names (Älskling, Gullunge, Pyret, Lilla Gubben). He will be seriously confused when he is old enough to be confused. Actually, he already looks confused most of the time.

We are starting to settle in on routines. I have started to give a small amount of banana porridge stirred out in heated breastmilk (50-60 ml) in the evenings before bedtime. Usually he is a bit cranky then, but when the milk-sweet porridge is served, he is delighted, opening his little mouth like a baby bird. He is highly spoon-competent by now, hardly spills anything any more. Then there is change of diaper, some play and finally breastfeeding knocks him out for the night around 19:00. Then he usually requests 2 snacks during night and when he wakes up between 06 and 07, he is brought to our bed (Usually by Alexander, who mostly manages to sleep through all other nightsessions). In bed between us, Alexander cuddles him - I am usually quite gone for most of the morning. Then we keep sleeping there, me and Tristan, while Alexander is off to work. Or alternatively, I sleep and Little One is checking out the world, being quite content.
Thats how he generally is, Tristan; quite content.
