Wiggly note

Authored

  • We had a weigh in and T is tracking his percentile perfectly. We wondered if he might have jumped above. Honestly I swear he’s huge already, where’s our little itsy newborn gone already? 🥹
  • All our NCT group babies are born now. R & T met up with the other mums, no dads allowed. Sounds like T is feeding really well but the other mums are getting more sleep, apparently their little ones go down in a crib relatively readily?!
  • Meanwhile I got a bunch of allotment time in. Vitamin D is great
    • Remembering that time I became quite severely deficient working in the FT basement with no access to the outdoors at home - that Thames side view from the office before was special though.
    • Weeded and trimmed, so far so good at preventing it becoming a jungle this year. Yet to see if I'll have the time to produce a harvest. The mice did find my direct sown peas. Covering with card and disguising the smell with lemon balm and mint didn't work. Determined to get a bunch of cubits in as relatively easy going crops that will smother weeds (cucumber, squash, pumpkin, courgette).
  • There’s a worm at the bottom of my garden, and his name is wiggly woo / There’s a worm at the bottom of my garden, and all that he can do / Is wiggle all night, and wiggle all day / He’s wiggling his life away! / There’s a worm at the bottom of the garden, and his name is wiggly, wig-wig-wiggly, wig-wig- wiggly woo (I like to freestyle that last bit 🎶)
  • Back to work next week, ahhh!
