PP yep I'm v proud of my bear - when not on a soy or dairy downer he's the jolliest soul. Today he didn't whinge at all and only cried once - when his 3 year old cousin scooshed him with a hosepipe of cold water whilst nomming his lunch all fresco (we were having a paddling pool party). Poor little dude. He was so happy in the paddling pool even when he face planted three times - not a tear. I also love watching his reaction when he sees someone he loves. My twin sister makes him wave and shriek delightedly and when he spots daddy he guffaws and bounces with glee.
Det Jonas drinks out of plastic cups at home - he only uses the Tommy tippee in the buggy these days. He looooves drinking out of normal cups and is getting pretty good at not waterboarding himself

Happy birthday JJ! 
Yes! Good point PP. I get so proud of p I could burst! She is tenacious and I love watching her investigate every single thing around her at the moment. My current favourite thing is watching her crawl. She is amazingly fast and I love the way she diverts mid crawl obviously deciding there is something more interesting elsewhere.

What was I going to say. Eeehhhm.
Oh yeah!
P's face was brilliant when she spent time with 8 year old twins recently. They aren't identical but very, very alike. She kept looking quickly from one to the other with a hint of a smile on her face. Almost like she thought that this was an amazing trick!
Also, they decided that they would play the recorder for her. I was a bit 
but when one girl played a particular note p watched her with interest then sang the exact same note. Even the girls were impressed.

Evening all, wonder if we can finish this Fred tonight! Well, today has been weird. He hasn't eaten or drank as much as usual, he only had 22.5oz all day :/ am now wobbling that he's not getting what he needs even though I know they're supposed to do this eating food malarkey. If he starts waking in the night I will go back to milk before solids, but I guess I have to give this a fair go before writing it off right? I should add that at tea time I put handles on his milk and was sat there with a bowl of purée and he chose purée, so he could've had more milk but didn't want it. It has been hot today, I guess, he's drank plenty of juice. Can I have a slap please? Anyway, he was cream crackered and went to bed at 6:45 :/ through choice. Weirdo. Better not wake later now!
pass hope it works out! I do the same and try to make sure e gets at least one home cooked meal a day but I get nervous when I give him new things still, especially home made new things as usually it means a difficult meal time. He has stopped clamping shut most of the time now but waves his head about and arms flail a lot and both of us often wear food! No idea how to combat this though lol
Glad you've had a good day madame but they'd do my swede in, that lot! Defo go with more alcohol ;)
I would go with a bottle det, have discovered e can work one, and can do the slurpy fruit pouches! He eats main meals out of bowls and with a spoon but I give him the fruit pouches and he sucks them up, it's so cute
Had to laugh pr!!! But hope she doesn't get poorly, am sure she won't :)
pikz will swap for similarly sized decent sleeping but food wearing milk reducing into everything immobile whingebag? Could do with a change of record :p
pp lovely post :) sometimes it just comes together wonderfully I agree :) sometimes I am so frustrated I cry, and other times I am so proud and astonished at the wonderment of my boy that I cry then too 
I love watching him sleep, and I love his excited reaction when he sees someone he loves. I also love watching him master picking small things up and his 'huhuhuhuhuhuh' of excitement when he manages it or he's please with himself in another way.
Happy birthday jj!!!! Sorry you've had a shitty week but sounds like a really nice day overall :) I can't wait for e to be old enough to enjoy nice trips out etc

happy birthday J!
snotty non sleeping teething baby currently back on pillow while mummy and daddy starfish on bed.
oh well, we know he can sleep in his own room for nearly 3 hours
I'm starting to think all this non sleep stuff (four month sleep regression that's lasted 3 months) is every single tooth coming through together. except still no sodding sign of a tooth!!!!

Happy birthday jupiter and welcome back dicks. Can't help with nappy ishoos but am 
at the thought of holidays.
PR that made me smile but also turned my stomach in quite a big way.
Det 
at O. Just when you think you've got to grips with him, he pulls a stunt like that and bam! Back on your toes missy.
I was mega proud of F today. We went for an impromptu picnic at the seaside after collecting dsd from school. F has been full of smiles all day, and giggles seemingly at nothing, beaming at everyone from within the pushchair, and sleeping like a pro prob because she was up half the bleddy night. Makes my heart pop.
