Hi ladies

Debbie I was speaking to a friend last night who has an almost 1 year old and she said the same thing about teething - apparently the teeth move around in the gums for a month or two before the bottom ones eventually break through.

Sarah its awesome that Lewis made Baby of the Month - he's gorgeous and it was such a nice idea to give him a little 2 month birthday cake. Do you do that every month??

Well things have been a little unsettled here recently. I dont know if its just the 3 month change but Mikayla has been very naughty of a night - she just isn't sleeping well and is getting very grumpy - she's even starting to throw little tantrums. I think I've got a cheeky little one on my hands. When she wants your attention she screams at the top of her lungs until you give it to her - then she stops and gives you a huge smile.

As the paediatrician suggested I've started her on solids which she is slowly taking to. I make up a teaspoon of rice cereal (farex) mixed with a little bit of formula every morning which she doesnt really like all that much but I dont blame her the stuff is tasteless. Initially she just spat it out but she's now starting to actually swallow it and yesterday she ate the whole teaspoon. I've also bought some jars of Heinz baby food for 4 month olds so that I can guage what she likes & dislikes before I start production on the homemade stuff. She loves the pear & banana but doesnt seem to like the pumpkin & beef or apple & mango much but I'll give them another go in a couple of weeks.

My precious little girl is starting to kiss back now too - its sooo gorgeous. As soon as I say "kisses for mum" she opens her mouth up wide and when I bring my face to her she sticks her tongue out and gives me a big sloppy kiss. DH has been making kissing sounds to her too so she's also started pursing her lips but instead of sucking in to make the sound she blows out - very very cute!! Ahh she's growing up way too fast!!

Hope your all well.

Hug & kisses to all the beautiful babies xx
