There's no doubt that we're all glad to see the back of Week 23 but if that was a tough week, Week 24 has been brilliant.  Euan shook off his cold and excelled on his tummy at Gymbaroo making Mum and Dad really proud!  He's back to his beautiful happy self and who cares if his sleep pattern is still a bit all over the place...he's a growing boy!!!

Week 23 was very tough for the little fella.  He got his first cold and the poor little thing found it difficlult to sleep.  What with being worried about Euan and not getting much sleep Mum and Dad also had a long week but there were signs that he was over the worst of it by the end of the week.  Hopefully week 24 will be a much healthier one for Euan and a more restful one for all concerned!

Week 22 was a tiring week for Euan!  He decided to change his sleep pattern and wake during the night a couple of times for feeds - Mum and Dad were overjoyed!  He also visited the physiotherapist on Thursday to get some help with supporting that big old head of his!  He excercises are paying off already though and he had a good workout on Friday at Gymbaroo with his Mum.

Euan had an exciting Week 21 with his very first Melbourne Cup Lunch!  Euan and his Mum spent the afternoon with his little mates from Mum's Group and soaked up the atmosphere of 'the race that stops a nation'.  Euan didn't have much luck with Mum's picks but Dad won a few dollars following Makybe Diva's third straight Cup victory!

Week 20 was a really important week for our little fella.  After four and a half months sleeping in his Mum & Dad's room, Euan finally moved into his own room, sleeping in his big cot!  Grandma and Grandpa Cazzolato arrived on Thursday 27th October, so he had to share his brand new room with his Mum & Dad for a couple on nights!

Week 19 saw Euan and his Mum & Dad take their first holiday together as a family.  We headed up to Nelson Bay on Friday 21st October to celebrate his Mum & Dad's 5th Wedding Anniversary.  We had an amazing time but it was a bit stressful for Mum & Dad with Euan sleeping in a different room for the first time!

Week 18 was a massive week for Euan!  He had his 4 month Birthday on Wednesday, visited his mum's work, received a HUGE package full of beautiful clothes from his Great Gran & Papa and Great Auntie Gail on Thursday and had his 4 month shots on Friday (not so much fun!)

Euan's 17th week was lots of fun and started with the Wests Tigers winning the NRL Grand Final!  Dad and Euan stayed in on Friday night to let Mum go out for dinner with her friends and on Saturday we all went to visit Mum and Dad's friends, Damien and Susanne with their newborn baby girl Jorja...she is so tiny!  Was Euan ever that small?

Week 16 was another big week for Euan with Dad's Birthday on the 30th September.  We had a barbecue for family and friends on Saturday 1st October where Mum and Dad got to use their new outdoor setting for the very first time.  A great day was had by all and Euan behaved like the little champ he is!

Week 15 was another exciting week for Euan ending on Saturday with the little fella watching his first AFL Grand Final on TV!  The occasion was made even more special thanks to the Sydney Swans winning their first title since 1933 by 4 points over the West Coast Eagles!

Euan kicked off week 14 week by celebrating his 3 month 'birthday' on Monday 12th September.  Euan's good form didn't stretch to eating his formula though.  He certainly prefers the real thing!  Speaking of good form, Dad's greyhound showed none during her first race on Tuesday!

Week 13 and Euan had another good week even managing to go with his Mum to the movies on Thursday!  He was weighed and measured on Friday and now tops the scales at 5.7kg and is about 63cm long!
