    So Ike (Jaxon looks like 'Ike' from
    South Park) woke at 2:45😒😒😒😒😒

    I went in to try and help Will settle him and about 45 mins later gave it up and took him out to chill in the lounge room. We hung out for about 1.5 hours before Will came and swapped and I went back to bed. They came got me at 9.
    They went for a stroll at like 5 and he went back to sleep for an hour and a half.

    I took Jaxon on a date to the aquarium and Will
    went back to bed.

    On our walk to the station I went and bought 2 more of those delicious muffins. I sat outside the shop feeding Jax his then ate mine as we walked. Everyone's front gardens are so cute. So small but cosy.
    He fell asleep on the walk there.
    It's a direct line to Westminster so that's convenient. What's not convenient is the lifts.
    You have to catch FOUR separate lifts to get to the street.
    It took so friggen long waiting for each lift, I was getting the shits big time. The forth one I couldn't find so I ended up carrying him and the stroller up the massive staircase next to the bridge - Me and some other lost family.
    Over the bridge and had to carry him down more stairs.
    Gah, the ticket was so expensive! Lucky he was free!
    £26 for me 😓
    You first walk over glass with sharks swimming underneath except he couldn't see because he was in his pram..
    Obviously, a lot of fish. He loved pointing at them but got a little cranky that I couldn't physically get one for him hahahah
    The big problem was lack of space though. So many prams and people and not enough room. I skipped a lot of the displays because it would just take too long to get to the front to look and maneuver the pram out.
    We had a good look at a few tanks though.
    He is so cute. He was chatting away.
    It's quite a good aquarium but I do prefer Sydneys. I'll take him there when he is out of his pram.
    I love seahorses.
    He got a little whingy at one point so I offered him a bottle but he wasn't Keen.
    The jelly fish exhibition was cool and I think he liked the flashing lights.
    There were penguins but not very many. Melbourne had more. Only one crocodile.
    There were piranhas, crabs and rays too.
    So proud - didn't buy anything In the gift shop even though I had Wills wallet.
    Caught the train back - our little adventure took about 3 hours. It was good, just the crowds let us down.
    On the way home i went to the shop to buy more nappies but they didn't sell them. We will run out soon - and I'll need new wipes too because the wipes we have a sticker close thing and it's lost its sticky so air is getting into the packet and drying the wipes out.
    When we got home we played and spent a lot of trying to keep Jaxon out of the kitchen.
    Jaxon fell asleep on me and we had a half hour nap. He was so sweaty so we agreed if I showered with him I could have an hour lie down so I instantly agreed.
    I don't know if I wrote this yesterday or not.. but he loves it if I put a bit of the shower spray towards his mouth so he can try catch it 😂

    Oh how I loved my nap.

    We then Started prepping dinner.
    We put he lasagna in the oven and I made a salad.
    Gave some of the lasagna to Jaxon and he inhaled it.
    We kept him up until 8 today.
    Jess video called and Jaxon was so excited. He kept looking at me as if to say "look! Do you see! It's my mum!"
    It was really cute.

    Jess asked if we thought he misses her.
    I'm sure he does but he has given no indication that he is distressed by her absence. I might have told a little white lie. She obviously misses him so..

    Toilet is blocked hahahah

    Watching NCIS again.
