Hi

Well last night was good, went to my cousin's 50th birthday party. Cameron was passed around to alot of people, but handled it well, he is a very happy boy. He then got a bit grumbly as it was dinner time, so I gave him a formula bottle (as I was drinking). Not too long after that DH and Cameron went home (DH was still feeling crook and it was Camerons usual bed time), we only lived a few streets away, so my parents dropped me home, still home by 10.30pm I'm sorry to say. Wasn't sure how Cameron would be as I'd had a few to drink and didn't want to many wake ups, but thankfully he slept through til 4, where I just quickly resettled him and we all went back to sleep, where we woke at 8 this morning, Woohoo!

I decided today was the day for Cameron to try something new in the way of solids, so I prepared the pumpkin. When Cameron woke after his lunch time sleep, I offered it to him... Well he loved it, no funny faces and he seemed he wanted more after the bowl was empty. We then waited about 30mins, where I then bf him, he still drained both sides (and I was rather full), so I think I'll do it like this in future (even though I know its a not recommended, he still drank all his milk so I don't see the harm)

Is it ok to offer more of the pumpkin tomorrow or should I wait to see if there is any reactions? Then I was thinking I might try some avocado later in the week, possibly Wednesday or Thursday.

Jess - on the tooth. How was Jordan's birthday? Did the weather clear up? It has been so stinking hot here today, but finally at lunch time the rain and a small storm came, which is slowly cooling things down.

So are we the only ones without a tooth now? Not concerned though, I was 9months old on my first tooth. How often do you's all clean there teeth/tooth? I'll have to try find my information I got from the parent class, as I can't remember if it's suppose to be after every feed or just morning and night. How are you's going with cleaning their teeth? What do you find the easiest way to do it?

Off to finish making dinner.

Bye for now,
