Lucky - Wow I can't believe Dash is taking the odd step! Max isn't interested in even trying to stand, even when I'm holding on to him. Just bends his knees... Oh well.

Shanti - How did your fathers day 'experience' go? What did you do? My DH got to go to the footy - without DS. Gee I'm a nice wife!!! I did make him get up earlier than usual though so he got to spend a bit of time with DS in the morning.

Caidens - Wow, 6 teeth all at once! Max has got his first 2 bottom ones and that's all so far. I'm not looking forward to the top ones coming as I've heard the biting while BF can get much worse

AFM we had a bad couple of days at the end of last week - Max had a high temp and just wasn't himself. He cried pretty much all day on Fri and didn't sleep well Thurs or Fri night. I actually slept him in our bed for most of the night on Fri - first time ever! Thank goodness he was pretty much back to his usual sunny self by Saturday though. It's so hard seeing them not well - especially when you don't know what is wrong. I had taken him to the doc on Thurs, but he oculdn't find anything. I thought in the end maybe it was teething, but no sign of any more just yet.

Other than that, well Max is sitting really well. I usually still put a cushion behind him cos he sometimes throws himself backwards for fun, but he doens't really overbalance anymore. He can roll tummy to back (but not the other way) but isn't really interested since the first week when he did it all the time. Still sleepign really well during the day, which is great for me! And has been sleeping through the night for a few weeks now, which is even better! He is also saying 'buba' and I think maybe last night said 'muma'. I think he will buck the trend and say mum before dad though as his sounds are more like mum than dad.

Anyway, better go wake him up. I know - never wake a sleeping baby! But he's been asleep for nearly 2 hours now adn I don't really like him to go too far past 11 with his morning sleep. Then we're out and about before getting home by 2 for his afternoon sleep
