T is now fully mobile, which leaves me about 5 minutes a day where I get to sit down and do nothing!
So he's now crawling about 7 crawls and then dragging himself the rest, but he's so fast now, look away for 2 minutes and he's into something that he shouldn't be, e.g. Daddy's PS3, he can switch on, eject and fling the disc across the room in the time it takes to sneeze!!
The word 'no' currently translates to T as "look at mummy and cry whilst carrying on touching what you're not supposed to be"
His first tooth is merrily on its way through his bottom gum, he's doing quite well with it, i've only been up once for about half an hour 3 times this week, so from what I hear he's doing fairly well.
Went swimming for the first time with him last week, he was amazing, he was face planting in the water and having a drink, then I was advised to try dunking him under the water seems as he was doing so well. That takes some hard mental adjustment (my friend that I went with is a fully qualified kids swimming instructor before you think I was advised this by some random) It's almost impossible for you to physically put your child under the water, your brain screams 'noooooo, you're essentially doing this and hoping he doesn't drown, but what if he doooeeees?!' Eventually I got the courage to do it and I was advised to laugh and smile when he came up so he knew it was a fun thing, and sure enough when he came back up blinking and spluttering he giggled his head off.
I shall begin the training for the Olympics.
His feeding has now progressed, he now refuses to be fed, unless he can 'feed' himself.
This is how that turned out:
Spoon in mouth, but minus food |
You can't make it out but it's right down to his feet! |
So needless to say not the best, but he had fun and it's apparently good for them to get to feel food and it's texture....yeah tell that to my washing machine!
As for the chicken update, we're getting about 6 eggs a day, the 'babies' are now bigger than the original ones.
Very mucky chickens! |
