today was an alright day. i didn't really cry much, i was mostly just fussy. my gram worked all day. i didn't get to see her much at all. i waved at her from the window when she went off to work. instead i had to hang out with my mom- all day. she pretty much just let me do what i wanted so we got along alright. we played, sang song, worked on my situps. i sat in shaky chair and blew bubbles. i had my naps when i felt like it and drank my bottles when i was ready. i hung out with grandad for awhile too. i helped him try to fix my lighty octopus. you smack his head and it lights up, except his light no worky. i guess that's it. mom says it's late and i better get to bed if i know what's good for me.
you know what's good for me- warm milk.

my mom woke up bitchy. or was that me who woke up bitchy? either way we snarked at each other most of the morning. i was fussy and puked loads. my poor beloved blankie caught most of it. mom took it off me and replaced it with a new one. new blankie is soft like a million kitten kisses. i've been petting it most of the day. mom made me hang out with gram for awhile. gram went to work and i was back with mom and the snarky continued. i didn't want my bottles i didn't want my naps. the merest suggestion that i should have such things sent me into screaming fits.
gram had a short day at work. her and mom decided to go for a short shopping trip in town. i tried to get out of it by not having my afternoon bottle. mom went upstairs to shower and i was supposed to eat with gram. i said no way lady. mom came down and sorted me out. i drank the bottle in the end. mom uses her mom voice on me and i must obey.
shopping was alright. there is always loads of cool thing to look at while they wheel me around. i even got a few things. mom hooked me up with a baby speedo for my swimmy time lessons with uncle tom.
yeah so i was a real pain the ass when we got home. i was super hungry and very tired but i refused to eat or have naps. ok, more like i refused when the big people said i had to. as soon as they said i didn't have to do something then i wanted it. i settled down eventually. even i can't be evil 24hrs a day.

today was the complete opposite of yesterday.
yesterday i screamed most of the day. my mom ran away and hid. well she took a nap and went for a walk to the food store. i hung out with my gram. i screamed about everything. for hours and hours, gram said she's never seen anything like it.
today i've been really good. i've hardly squeeked at all. i've taken all my naps, drank all my bottles and played all with out complaining too much. mom has been using this thing on me she calls a sucker. it's more like a baby ball gag. she sticks it in my mouth and it keeps me quiet, some people call it a pacifier. it's like some kind of S and M club around here. mom wraps me up in my blankie, she calls it swaddling and sticks the sucker in my mouth. before long she'll make me wear rubber pants and spank me. what kind of world is this? a world where my mom listens to way too much nine inch nails.

my mom got me dressed for bed last night and saw that my sleepy suit was too small. she told gram to stop shrinking my clothes. i mean really i just wore that suit last week. so mom grabbed one of the new 6-9month old suits and plopped me in that. she was shocked to find it fit me perfectly. oh yeah, i'm huge. now mom has loads of clothes that i've never even worn which are all too small. i'm growing faster than i can wear stuff.
having an alright day. spent the early afternoon hanging out with my gram. we did loads of stuff. i helped her bake chocolate muffins, we sorted laundry, we sung song and she watched me play on my wigglematt. my mom on the other hand went to bed. so everyone is happy.

video uplinky seems to be set on malfunction today.

my gram told me off for screaming at my mom. now i'm sulking.

ok i'm really sleeping and mom made me wear sockpuppets again.

my mom says that i have to be quiet today or else my gram's head will explode. how that works i'm not sure. so far so good. mom and i have napped on the couch most of the day. every few hours she pokes me awake and i get a fresh diaper and some warm milk. it's been a total lazy sunday. went out for a buggy ride with grandad and he brought me back, cool. when i was awake, mom and i played. we chatted and i did sit ups.

pope hardwick decrees all your sins absolved.

i'm home alone with my mom. i'm doing my best to be a good boy. i've only yelled at her a few times. she is using that audio sedative cd on me.

yesterday was a mixed bag. it started off well enough. i woke my mom up at 6am with a diaper full of stinky poopies. that gag never gets old. i laughed. mom and i hung out. we chatted with gram while she got ready for work. watched stranger than fiction- not a bad little movie, i rather liked it. woke up from my nap to find that not only was it bottle time- gram was home already. had a drink and we all got into the car for a ride to burton. walked around burton with my mom, gram and grandad. i mostly slept while the old people shopped. mom bought me loads of chew toys. i was really good during the trip. when i got home i made everyone pay for it. i screamed for several hours. i was hot and my gums hurt. mom assured me that everyone goes through this and she is pretty sure that no one has ever died from teefing. i'm not convinced. i sucked on my cool fish and chewed on my dribble cloth. i went to bed when my name is earl came on.
had an uneventful night. got up this morning in a pretty good mood. i had some breakfast chatter with my gram before she went to work. watched frasier with mom. drank my bottles and filled diapers with an assortment of pee and poopies. mom let me take my naps on her while she rubbed my back. still a little hot today and biting anything that gets close enough to my mouth. had a nice buggy ride with the granfolks. that's it so far. today's video is me yelling at my mom because my lunch is late.

i hate you and everyone you know.
my gums hurt so my mom gave me a cool fishy to suck on. i'm teefing and it sucks.

my mom says that she is pretty sure that aliens are not abducting me in the middle of the night. she got up last night at 4.30am and i was happily sleeping away. oh well.
slept alright last night. i got up at 5.30 for a bottle. i wanted to play afterwards and mom wasn't too in to that idea. eventually i went back to sleep and we officially got up at 9am for bottles and changing. mom tried to keep me busy. we sent happy birthday email to my dad. we played. i had some playtime with grandad too. in the afternoon time i hit mom with a surprise poopie attack. hahaha. i started to get fussy after my 3pm bottle. people kept coming by to see me. the june lady came over with a new jacket for me and autie pasty stopped by. i just wanted to play and watch cheaters on tv.
mom says that tomorrow we are going on a shopping adventure and first on the list is teeth toys. today i tried to chomp her finger and it wasn't even close to my mouth. i dove after her hand. i also spent a good part of the day trying to gnaw on my snuggly blanket. gram felt my gun and said it was rough. i soaked both my sock puppets too biting my own hands.(mom made me wear sock puppets today because i need scratch mits and my hands are too big for the ones she bought me. oh and i need scratch mits because my fingernails are long and i won't let mom cut them. she tried to the other day and ended up snipping the tip of my finger when i jerked my hand away. i screamed but she kissed my booboo and made it better- mom magic.)

no video today, mom is short for time and stuff. she did shoot some, there just isn't time to upload it. had an alright day. i got up at 3am for a bottle and change. mom was cool with that since i slept so much the day before she figured i'd be up in the middle of the night. we went back to bed and didn't get up again until 7am. i woke mom up with a poopie attack. she asks me- are there poopies in there and i just smiled and giggled at her. oh yes stinky poopies. mom got me cleaned up and i downed my morning bottle. we hung out and played. mom left me with my gram while she ran some errands. i watched gram cook and then we had a bottle and watched frasier.
spent the day with mom since gram had to work. we watched shows on the history channel- seconds from disaster and air crash investigation. mom says that when we make our grand return to the states, it just might be by boat. i didn't give my mom too much hassle today. our biggest dispute was over afternoon nap time. she seems to think that just because my belly is full of warm milk and my eyes are half shut that i want to nap- no this is not the case. so i had a good scream at her but in the end i did fall asleep. woke up and my gram was back- whooo hooo. she tried to give me a bottle but i said- no way. slight mistake on my part. she gave me a bath. oh nuts. i'm going to hang out on the couch with her for a bit and watch medical dramas- english ones.

it happened again. i got up for my midnight bottle and the next thing i know it's 6am. i lost a whole 6hrs. mom says this is a sign of alien abduction. i am rather sleepy today so something strange is going on.
i had an ok day. i slept loads and had warm milky bottles. mom and i had lots of play time and snuggles. i was in a super good mood. i was pukey after a few of my bottles, not sure what that was about. my gram came home and i hung out with her a bit. not a whole lot to report really. i went poopie twice- go me. i really did sleep most of the day.

good morning world.


so far so good. i'm having an alright day, as far as grey cold wet days in england go.
i watched borat last night with mom. it was funny and oddly touching in a strange way, an enjoyable film. i slept alright. mom says she can't complain too much. i got up at 2.30 and 6.00 for warm milk and diaper changes. hung out a bit with mom this morning doing stuff on the computer. she is still trying to figure out her quicktime/flash issue. it's something super simple and i'm just laughing at her getting all annoyed.
mom hit me with some musical mindcontrol. gram turned her onto this cd of things called lullabys. mom puts it on and the next thing i know i'm waking up with drool all over my face. it's some kind of audio sedative.
just before 9am i downloaded some stinky poopie. mom managed to get me cleaned up before the stink made her pass out. then she handed me off to my gram. mom ran upstairs for some sleep while gram and i did things. we laughed and played games, read stories and drank warm drinks. gram also took me to visit my auntie amy and uncle tom down the street. i'm spending some time there this afternoon hanging out. uncle tom let me play with his video games- i'm a driving ace at 3months.

good morning danna bunny and greatest gram. check me out. here's the super secret surprise mom was talking about. she bought me a video camera for your viewing pleasure. once i figure out how my arms work, i'll wave for you. my mom says that hunter should start his own blog- the adventures of hunter and rachelle e.
anyway. mom says i slept through the night. i don't belive her.

testing, testing. is this thing on? hello world. i am now in video form. check me out.

my mom says that i owe my very existence to this man. and i'm lucky my name isn't hardwick henry

you tubage testy
my mom says this band does ruleth hard

all kinds of stuff going on here in wicks world. tomorrow could be exciting.
but anyway today is today. i woke my mom up at 7.30am with a big pile of stinky poopies. i laughed. got cleaned up and hung out with mom while she did things on the internet. i got so bored i fell asleep in my shaky chair.
i spent the morning with my gram. she said that my mom could go out and have a fun day without me. is such a thing possible? mom came home with bags of stuff. she bought me all kinds of cool things. what did she get herself? a pack of envelopes. yes that's right, envelopes. but man wait until you see the stuff she got me. wicked cool.
mom and gram switched off. i spent the afternoon with mom while gram and grandad went shopping. gram came home with even more stuff for me. i'm so spoiled it's not funny.
then i was told to hang out with grandad while mom and gram went out for a further shopping adventure. what the heck? how much can a person shop? this time all i got was lousy formula. grandad called them on the cellphone- come home quick- he's screaming. i yelled a lot at my grandad, just because.

here i am having a wiggle this morning on my playmatt. all my friends are hanging out. the barnyard crew is there, flutterbye, 6leggyoctopus and bob my giraffe. i've been a little fussy but not too evil today. i spent the morning with my gram. she gave me lots of kisses and a warm bottle of milk.
mom checked my blog tracker for me and says that someone with a harvard id popped into my world. hello smart person. mom was just telling me about harvard this morning. we were singing row row row your boat. every time we sing it mom makes me practice my strokes. she says if i work hard maybe one day i can be on the harvard crew team.
my gram came home and i'm hanging out with her some more. i made my mom curse this afternoon. i was pretty evil to her. she tried everything- bottles, playtime, snuggles, singing, rocking, stretching, on and on. nothing was making me happy. i just yelled and yelled. then i would be quiet for a bit before yelling some more.

here i am this morning having a bit of shaky chair action after my morning bottle. had on ok night and a pretty good day. i haven't been too horrible to my mom. i only screeched a little this afternoon. i drank my bottles and i had short naps. i was slightly evil to my grandad. we were having a bit of a play on my matt. he picked me up and i started to scream. he got all upset- what's all this noise then? he thought that he might have broken me until mom told him that i do the same thing to her every day at least once. my gram is home and i am having a good cry at her so she doesn't feel too left out.

here i am this morning having some play time in my shaky chair. my dad left at 6am. luckily i was up and was able to collect my good bye kisses. he told me to straighten up and fly right. mom says he might come back in another 2 weeks. i snuck his favorite picture of me into his laptop case so he could have a happy surprise when he went to work.
went shopping with my mom and grandad this morning. i fell asleep on the way there. mom didn't want to wake me up so i got left in the car while they took turns going into the store. mom got me more diapers- whoo-hoo.
spent the afternoon driving mom crazy. instead of sleeping i like to screech. there was lots of screeching. i finally passed out at 5pm, just in time for my gram to come home. mom got her revenge when she told gram to give me a bath. oh nuts.

it's sunday and i'm still hanging out with my dad. we're working on how to: scratch, fart and drink from a bottle. for some life lessons a boy really needs his dad.

it's saturday. i'm hanging out with my dad.

here i am about to fall asleep while waiting for my doctor's appointment. it all started out fine. mom took my clothes off me and this indian lady(dots not feathers) poked me and listened to things. she was nice enough even if she did wake me up from my nap. we went back out and sat in the waiting room for the nurse to call us.
the nurse came out. she was really cute- young blonde thing, i gave her my best sleepy boy smile. she talked to my gram and mom about what she was going to do. i was too busy trying to smile and keep my head from wobbling so i wasn't following the conversation. a mistake i will not make again. gram undid the legs of my sleepy suit and next thing i know this huge needle was jammed in my leg by the nurse lady. i was shocked. i turned bright red and didn't breath for a few seconds. then i let out a mighty scream in protest. it didn't matter, gram let the lady jab another needle in my other leg!
how could you gram? how could you. i screamed and screamed. mom took me and tried to calm me down but i was furious and had two ouchies. the rest of the day was ok. i wasn't very fussy considering how my morning turned out. i had my bottles and finished them off- so no problems there. i slept. mom said i did get a bit hot. i got up at midnight feeling very hot with a fever and my dad was there. hey dad. i'm pretty sure i didn't hallucinate him up.

first picture is me in the car. i'm on my way to burton for a day out of shopping with my mom, gram and grandad. it was a nice day. lots of sunnyshine. we parked at the lieberry.(my mom says it's not some kind of fruit but where you can get books.) the lieberry is next to a little river and loads of candian geese hang out there- stupid illegal immigrants. i was trying to feed the swans with my gram but the geese kept stealing the bread. grandad grumbled the whole time because gram was using his morning toast bread. we went shopping. gram bought me a present. we ate subway for lunch in the park. i started to cry and it was back in the car time. spent the rest of the day in a terrible mood- lots of screaming. i wore my gram and mom out. eventually i calmed down and went to sleep. everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

having an ok day today. i slept pretty good last night. got up at 4am. had a diaper change and a bit of a bottle. got up again at 6am i was hungry so i drank my bottle then. mom let me sleep on the couch with her. she is way snugglier than my bed. we got up at 9am and it was another round of diaper changes and warm milk bottles. had loads of play time. in the afternoon time we all got in the car for a shopping trip. walked around the food store with mom and helped her put things in the cart. old ladies stopped to tell me how cute i am. yeah i know- i'm wicked cute. i was good in the store. mom got me more formula so i will be well fed for at least another week.
got home in time for an afternoon bottle and change. mom said i had to take a nap and i wasn't too sure about that. i was a little fussy but eventually agreed- a nap would be nice. mom and i slept on the couch together. got up and it was 6pm already- milk and diaper change time. good thing about 6pm is my gram is usually home from work. and she was. going to spend a bit of time chilling out with her tonight. there are pictures but mom doesn't really have time to rip them off the computer. she'll get them posted up soon though.

someone must of set my switch to evil. i was evil last night and i was evil today. last night i didn't get up for my midnight bottle. my mom decided that at midnight 30, i would probably be asleep for awhile longer then and she had better get some sleep. ha. i waited until she has just fallen asleep and started squeeking. it was 1.30. so mom gave me a bottle and i reluctantly went back to sleep. mom went to sleep. i started squeeking again at 2.45. mom was not happy. she changed me and got me to close my eyes. i got up at 4.20. mom gave me a bottle and rocked me back to sleep. i got up at 5.30. mom growled at me. she picked me up and rubbed my back until i went back to sleep. i got up again at 6.45. mom said i was taking the piss. she gave me another bottle and rubbed my back. surprise attack- poopies! haha. i was stinky and squishy so she changed me. she wrapped me up in my snuggly blanket and rocked me until my eyes closed yet again. she put me in my bed. 8.45 my eyes flew open and i started to turn red. mom looked at me and said- oh man. yep more poopies on the way. i got changed again. mom left the room. i guess she ran into my gram because she is the next person i saw. mom went upstairs for some sleep and i hung out with the gram. i gave her extra fussies. i got warm milk, snuggles, play time, a bath, clean clothes and i still wasn't happy. gram finally got me to sleep. i woke up to find grandad pushing me around in my buggy- what the hell. i started crying and cried all the way home. and i pretty much cried the whole day. nothing my mom did would make me happy.

oh yeah my doctor's appointment for today was canceled. i guess the reception girl is new and double booked everyone. fine with me, i didn't really want to be poked by needles. i got rebooked for friday. mom laughed. my dad is coming for the weekend and no doubt i will be extra grouchy for his visit now.

my mom says in a perfect world they would make such a movie. hell they made one about restaurant workers.

ok i've had a really shit day. and that's all i want to say about that. check out my two pictures. the first one was taken on june 22, i was just about a month old then. the second one was taken today, i'm like 10 weeks old. check me out- i'm totally huge! we're going to need a bigger basket.

it's been one of those days. i made sure my mom didn't get any sleep last night while i snoozed away happily. gram has been hanging out with me on the couch watching only fools and horses most of today. my mom handed me off and went back to bed. went swimming with uncle tom. oh splashy splashy fun fun. i like the water. it's fun to pee in. oh yeah like you've never peed in the pool. had a tummy ache and yelled a bit. poopie came out. mom says i have a doctor's appointment on tues and she will talk to him about all my issues.

ok, it's later in the day. the color picture is today's shot. i had wicked red eye and mom shopped it out for me. after my last post i came down with a terrible tummy ache. oh my belly. mom held me and rubbed my back while the poopie worked it's way out. she even called in the hot water bottle. agony. i think there were actual tears. when i was done mom changed me. she is not sure why i had such a hard time. the poopie was no worse than any other ones i've done. mom let me sleep on her a bit. got up and had some play time with my gram and another poopie- that one was not nearly as horrible. i had a bottle and slept on mom some more. i got up and had some more play time. now i'm going to have another bottle and settle down for the night. more tomorrow.

i totally forgot to post so here are two pictures from yesterday.
let's see friday was on ok day. i wasn't too good and i wasn't too bad. i fussed here and there but for the most part i was in a good mood. mom and i played. i sat in my shaky chair. fishfinger cleaned my parasites. crikey and i wrestled. i played on my wiggle matt. i sat on the couch with mom and she helped me stretch. i got lots of tickles and kisses. i slept pretty well. mom says i need to sleep more. the more i sleep the happier i'll be, i guess she is right. i always feel good after a nice nap.
today started off with me annoying my mom. i went to bed at 11pm last night and got up at 3.30am for a bottle and change. i managed to keep mom up until 7.30am. oh she was not happy. turns out my gram has the day off so i am spending time with her while mom sleeps. tomorrow i have another swim lesson with uncle tom- whooohoo

today i had my first swim time. whoo-hoo it rocked. my uncle tom and auntie amy took me into the pool. i floated around and splashed. oh it was super duper fun. my mom watched from the sidelines. she couldn't take any pictures because in england anyone with a camera around children in a public place- must be a kiddie porner. but she watched me and i waved at her. i was the youngest baby there and i think the biggest too. i could totally kick those tiny babies asses. other than that i'm back to my usual self. no sleep til brooklyn! i've been wide away since 5am. mom doesn't know it but i secretly drink grandad's coffee when no one is looking. i got told off by my gram this morning for screeching. mom pawned me off on her so she could go back to sleep. when mom came in to see how i was and then left the room, i got really annoyed and started to shriek. gram scolded me. not sure what the rest of the day holds.

here's me on the way to my first swim time.

it's been a good day for me, look at my shocked face. i decided to switch things up a bit, keep the old moms guessing. today i have been as good as gold. last night my gram gave me a bottle at 9pm and i eventually went to sleep. now i usually get up at midnight, but last night i didn't wake up again until 2.30am. mom gave me a bottle and i went right back to sleep. then i didn't get up again until 6am. mom gave me another bottle and we staid up for a bit. the warm milk eventually was too much to resist and i fell asleep. i had an appointment today to have my hearing checked. so mom got things ready and when i woke up she changed me, gave me a bottle and after the burping we got into the car. grandad drove us to the hospital for our appointment. it was an in and out deal. i had little probes stuck in my ears and within 10min we were out of there. grandad hadn't even left the hospital grounds yet, so he swung around and got us. next stop was shopping. we went to a few places but i don't remember where cause i was sleeping. got home at noon just in time for a bottle and nap. i was a little fussy after that bottle but really that was the only time i cried all day. mom thinks the gremlins might have switched me with another baby during the night- i've been that good.
here is what my dad had to say about my behavior yesterday: that definitely comes from your side of the family, no crazy, irrational, screaming monsters on this side.
my mom sends him full reports of what i get up to, every day.
and that is pretty much it. will spend the rest of today hanging out with my gram. tomorrow we are supposed to take a car ride somewhere- no one is sure where yet.
oh yeah, my hearing is fine. so usually when my mom is talking to me, i'm just ignoring her.
