Oh goodness! Reading about everyone starting to head off for their chrissy hols really shows how fast this year - particularly our babies first 6months have gone! Crazy huh?????

I can see two white lines under DD's bottom gums but I can't feel them! All her teething symptoms have disappeared (red cheeks, red bot) so maybe it was more a growth spurt than anything else.

Tried first taste of baby cereal the other morning She was so excited and waving her arms everywhere with a massive smile on her face as the spoon came towards her BUT!! As soon as she got her first taste her face truly went inside out and all screwed up!! Then she'd gag So might try again tomorrow.

Out to dinner tonight so really should go get ready as I have to feed before we go as I am not a very graceful public feeder and the best the place could offer me was the loos......um, hows no sound?? Thankfully DD is sleeping really well atm so hopefully she will be a very happy chappy at the restaurant and not squeal the place down as she tends to do when she is tired

OMG!!! I have to tell you this!!!!!! Had the huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugest hunstmen spider in my house this morning and DH was at work!!!!!!!!!!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!!! It was MASSIVE!! (picked up that I hate spiders???hahaha!) So both my DD's were wondering why mummy was acting like a mad women and dancing this funny dance and singing this song that only had funny sounds in it like "ewwwwwwwwwww, eeeeeeeeeeeeek! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!! Blehhhhhhh!! Yayayayayaya!!!"

Eventually I managed to almost drown it in spray - whilst on the phone to DH who suggested I stepped on it!! WHAAAAT?!?!?!? Seriously!! It was that big it would've thrown me off!!! ROFL!!!

So I conquered in the end, lol, and then had to go and wipe over everything that got sprayed in the process, twit! Poor DD#2 was so famished as it went past her normal feed time as I couldn't leave until I was certain the horrid spider was well and truly dead as I was paranoid it would crawl and surprise me else where if I let it out of my sight ................ yes coz they are very smart!! I need therapy I know.................................

Okeedokee.................to all those off on Christmas holidays, have the most precious time with those priceless memories with your families and oh so sweet and amazingly precious babys! xx And to everyone else, will bbl hopefully with no further traumatic events - LOL!!!!

Ok, DH has just drawn my attention to the time, really should go get ready

Mwa!!
