Kanthika is 1 month old now but somehow it feels like he has been a part of our life for much much longer. Uthpala and I are finding that our days and nights a getting a litle blurred as we work our way from feed to nappy change and 3-4 hours of sleep. The little guy is slowly getting into a routine and sleeping solidly between feeds more often now so things are not so bad. This picture was taken just after one of his feeds and as you can see he might have taken in just a little too much :-)
It's all being put to good use though since he is growing by leaps and bounds. Already he's outgrown his first set of clothes and I noticed today that the second batch can't be considered 'too big' for him. Given that we were a little worried about how small he was at birth, this is great news.
Uthpala's mother has now gone back to Sri Lanka but my parents are still around to help us out as necessary. Our first 'fully solo' parenting experience is going to be in a couple of weeks time when we have to take Kanthika to the hopsital for his first vaccincation while my parents are away visiting some friends. Hopefully it will all go fine!
