[NaNa]

deancey - lol, nah, he's just toxic. Haven't been regular with the solids as I've been out and about so often I just forget. But I'll make more of an effort this week. He only sometimes shows an interest, so I'm not pushing it. Luckily, despite everything Aadi's still so happy all the time. It's really only momentary that he's grumpy or whatever. I'm just a whinger coz I haven't had a full night's sleeep for over 6 months!
Sounds like a nice weekend! Too bad u have to go to work on such a gorgeous day, tho...

Jess - forgot to answer your question, "papa et maman" means literally "dad and mum". NaNa is a nickname I've had since I was a kid since most people can't pronounce my name, let alone remember it. Everyone calls me that, even my mum. Aadi has been very vocal since he was a few weeks old, but I have no idea what his first real words are going to be, and whether they will be french, english or arabic! I think the times he's said "NaNa" and "Aadi" were just a fluke, and he's continued to babble and grunt as before...

Mis- oooh work boring... same thing's happening here - the bump is back, the stink is pewwwyy, and sleep is not happening again. Aadi gets agitated and grunts/moans continually when he's sitting in the car seat or pram for too long. It's the worst noise. I think it's wind too.
DP rarely changes nappies, only on weekends really, and only if I'm asleep (not often) or I hassle him that it's "his turn". I even put printed instructions with diagrams on the wall next to the change table so there would be no excuse for him to do it wrong. So now he gets the nappy right but puts Aadi's clothes on back to front, inside out or both! He's a bit dippy sometimes... but I do have an overwhelming nappy stash, and like to confuzzle him at times. heheheh! I'm so mean.

Have a good day at work ladies! I dont envy you...

Sass- jinx! posted at the same time. I have no idea about the bottle feeding... sorry. But do those measurements take into consideration the fact that she's having solids as well?? Posting a thread in that section is a good idea tho. I'm glad you're not bummed about the jobs, something better will come along for sure, and you'll probably be a lot happier anyway when you've cut your hours down.
