Hi Girls,

Glad to see everyone back!

Jen - I chop the blueberries in half, but yes they are very soft and small, he seems to like them. I've started giving him peas and corn which aren't fully purreed, just mashed. He handles them okay but coughs sometimes. it's hard isn't it getting onto the next stage.

Tina - I was looking at the Marrickville Gymbaroo as the times fitted in but I don't like the thought of paying up front, it's $185 for a term. You should check out their website, it does look good. I'm going to try and get to a music and movement class in Coggee and then when Lewis drops a sleep and just sleeps once a day I will go to Gymbaroo.

Mel - yes it is a vicious cycle working and being a Mum isn't it. but I feel I have a good balance now and feel less guilty. I don't know if when they are older and realise we are going it will get worse.

Well Lewis started properly crawling today! He has been doing a few crawls for the last few weeks but now will crawl to wherever I am. Luckily my playpen/room divider arrived from ebay yesterday. Although he started crying when I put it up to keep him out of the kitchen. He has a fascination with my toes, wherever they are, he wants to follow!

He weighs 9.3kg now and is 8 months old on Monday. Did I ever mention he cries everytime he sees his Grandad? I find it quite amusing but obviously his Grandad gets upset!! Wonder how long that will last?

Anyway am off to enjoy a glass of wine and Thai takeaway, YUM!
