Just a quick post (LOL, well it IS quick, I type fast!). Kenzie is getting stroppy. I think she knows it's just me and her all day today (Riley went back to preschool today and this year he is going for a full day, not half). So she is disturbing my peace!

Well, Makenzie's not pulling up on stuff yet, luckily. I don't want another early walker! She is almost crawling though - she can get around the room slowly but surely, I have to be very vigilant with what the boys leave on the floor near her - near her being 2 metres or more away! She gets really frustrated as she crawls backwards and then ends up against a wall with her feet and can't keep going so she had a hissyfit.

I've noticed her showing her "dislikes" lately, too. If she doesn't want something (rest of her bottle, a toy etc), she gets this frowny face and slaps at it and if she grabs it she'll throw it lol.

She had her first try of yoghurt yesterday. Ate the whole tub! I bought the Wiggles kids yoghurts for my boys and noticed on the box it said suitable from 6 months so I gave her the vanilla one. She couldn't eat it fast enough! She still doesn't like potato even if it's mixed in with something else she likes.

She's been unsettled with her sleep. Quite often screams at me if I put her down when she's tired but she decides she'd rather play. The night before last she woke about 4 times through the night, normally she sleeps through. Then a couple of mornings before that she decided 4.30am was a good time to wake up for the day! I think her top teeth are coming through now, they look very close, and they are a lot bigger than the bottom ones so might not be so lucky with getting away with no teething symptoms.

Astrid - they are so quick to grab things, aren't they! It's amazing how they can have quicker reflexes than us!

Brooke - Kenzie has been doing this growling noise, it's so funny. She does it for ages. I was doing it back to her one day and it was irritating my throat, don't know how she can do it for so long.

Oh, and she's started laughing to herself, it's so cute. Normally you have to do silly faces or noises or at least interact with her to get her to laugh, but the last few days she'll just be sitting on the floor playing and she'll start laughing to herself, not just a giggle but full-on laughing. I said to Dh I wondered if babies thought of something funny that had happened previously and laugh about it again - like when you're on a train or something and you think of something funny and start laughing to yourself and people stare at you like you're a weirdo coz you're sitting on your own laughing LOL.

Anyway, better go, with the boys both at school/pre-school I finally get an opportunity to clean up their rooms and also do a toy cull and also pack away all the small stuff before Makenzie gets too mobile.
