Lunch like a big girl

I can't believe that you are now big enough to sit up in your highchair and eat properly, (although your table manners probably still need some work, as I'm not sure shoving your fist in your full mouth is quite proper etiquette) You seem to be really loving our little weaning adventure, and no longer push every mouthful back out with your tongue. Each feed, however always starts with a face like you've just sucked on a lemon, during the first mouthful, which I have to admit has become quite endearing, if a little bizarre, as the following mouthfuls you seem to enjoy with gusto and can't quite eat it fast enough for your liking!!

So far we love sweet potato, butternut squash, pear, apple, blackcurrant and banana, but you seem to have an aversion to carrot!!

153 days old!

Today you turn 5 months old!! It's been exhausting and thrilling, emotional and rewarding, at times frustrating but consistently magical. By far the most amazing 153 days of my life, thankyou for brightening my world.

Our daily routine

Your in a really good routine now, which makes life so much easier....

7am - breakfast bottle
8am - breakfast (usually consists of baby cereal mixed with fruit puree)
9am - nap time (45-60 mins)
11am - bottle
12pm - nap time ( you have 1-2 hours, depending on what we're doing)
2:30pm - bottle
3pm - lunch (vegetable puree)
4:30 - nap time (usually just 30mins)
6pm - bathtime
6:15 - bottle
7pm - bedtime

Then Mummy crosses her fingers for a full nights sleep.

Thankful Thursdays.

This weekend we visited the Apple Orchard (my nickname for a store that sells the latest computers, which will no doubt seem pre-historic, in years to come when you read this - but are currently the hip and happening things to have), and bought a new computer. It has a fantastic video editing suite which I've started to use, to start putting together some of our many home movie clips. And I can't believe, how much you've grown and changed already.....

So this week I am grateful for the many moments and memories that we are lucky enough to have frozen in time, and that will I know, always lift my spirit and warm my heart.

Just a simple bag of lettuce!

All that money spent on the latest toys and all you really needed to keep you entertained for 20 minutes was a pre-washed bag of lettuce leaves! Mummy is sorry that she's neglected this up to this point!!!
