Justin in his new surroundings

Justin has been an absolute star and has adjusted quite well. Row and I were quite worried about the 2 long haul flights that we had to take to get to Sydney but we worried for nothing. On our flight to HK, Justin didn't get a bassinet so he had to sit on our laps for 13 hours. Thankfully he slept most of the way as it was a night flight. On our flight to Sydney, we were able to get a bassinet for Justin and again, he slept most of the way as it was also a night flight. It took him about a week to get over his jet lag but we didn't mind as he would sleep at his usual 7pm, wake up at 10pm and go back to sleep until about 9am. Now that he's over his jet lag, it's back to the usual 6am wake up calls. Justin has experienced a lot of change in his short life time so he seems to be adapting a lot quicker now.

Justin's going to be 8 months old on Wednesday, where has the time flown to? He's crawling around really fast, still doing his leopard crawl. He's also started learning how to pull himself into a standing position and even stood on his own once. Now that's able to pull himself up, he's also started to try climb up things....now the fun begins! We haven't had a chance to take Justin for a baby wellness check but he has definitely put on weight, probably weighing about 8,5kg. He loves his food and is a good eater. We did take him for an immunization and he cried when he got this one. Thankfully Row was holding him so I didn't have to look. He has 2 little teeth so he's drooling alot and loves to blow bubbles and make raspberry kissing noises.

Raspberry kisses!
