Passport Performance

We are going home to NZ for a couple of weeks soon so thought we had better get Felix's passport organised, isn't it silly that you need passports for babies as they change so quickly. Jarvis got a passport at 5 months which is valid for 5 years but it doesn't look anything like him now.

Anyway, we went to get Felix's photo done for the passport, WHAT A PERFORMANCE - the young man in the chemist took about 100 photos, they have to be looking straight at the camera, they can't smile, the parents hand/arm can't be visible, the head has to be still as the photo can't be blurry and if they move it changes the size of the photo which has to be just right......as you can imagine this took some time with a 3 1/2 month old. The young man even offered Felix some jelly beans to try and get him to focus, he had no idea, Jarvis however was delighted with the jelly beans!!!!

Felix is sleeping really well at the moment, he had a couple of days where he slept in 1/2 hour lots so I thought I would cut down the amount of tea I drink as I do love my tea. I reduced my tea intake to nil for the first day and one cup in the morning for the last 4 days. Last night Felix slept from 8pm to 4am this morning, thats the second time he has done it I'm absolutely delighted and feel great for getting more sleep, lets see if he can keep it up.
