A Photo Every Hour - Saturday 20th February

February's Photo an Hour challenge fell on the 20th - a day which didn't involve anything in particular, other than the usual jobs of changing nappies and feeding a hungry little munchkin!


9am - I could have quite easily started my photo an hour day at either 2am or 5am in the morning as those were the times Lily decided she wanted some grub. We're doing combination feeding (due to the fact she had a tongue tie for the first three weeks) but we're also feeding on demand and as luck would have it after 5am, she didn't demand any food til 9!



10am - After feeding, we did a nappy change and an outfit change, ready for the day and someone wasn't too happy about that...



11am - This is the view from my rocking chair, where I was sat feeding (again) and watching a cup of tea grow steadily cold. The plan was for Andrew to take her out for a walk every Saturday morning but that idea wasn't going too well!



12pm - The rain finally cleared off so Andrew set off with Lily for a scenic stroll up to his mum and dad's house.



1pm - I took the opportunity to catch up on some paperwork and emails.



2pm - I actually managed to drink a hot cup of tea, as Andrew and Lily were still out. I was beginning to miss them though - it was the first time she'd been away from me for any significant length!



3pm - They finally arrived back home and Lily was sporting her 'feed me now!' face.



4pm - After 45 minutes of munching, this is what her 'milk drunk' face looks like...



5pm -  And this is what happens after all the eating...


6pm - Still asleep...



7pm - And again... In the meantime, Andrew had organised dinner, done some shopping and bought me a magazine to read.



8pm - Last shot of the evening; I've been going to bed for a few hours each night while Lily has some 'dad time', then I can take over and do the overnight feeding shift.

For next month's photo an hour, I was thinking of Easter Sunday - 27th March - perhaps it'll be a nice sunny spring day, perhaps it'll involve lots of chocolate or perhaps it'll just be a nice relaxing day spent with family. Hope you can all join in!

 
Also, check out what I was up to in...

  1. Easter Sunday sounds like a good idea! I think I have a friend coming to visit that I might even be doing something haha! That also means I might forget.

    Sounds like a nice relaxing day in parenthood for you guys!

  2. Aw nice to see all the baby pics! Hmm I'll likely be knee deep in moving house that day, could make for some interesting pics (here's me stuffing wool in the car, here's me driving home, here's me crying over how much stuff I have...)
