Hello...has been a long time between visits...and I stopped getting the emails so haven't had time to keep up with everyone, just trying to keep up with my two DD.

Willow has two bottom teeth (since about 6mths), top 2 are just about there, is not quite crawling yet but can get from one side of the room to the other in no time flat with a bit of commando action. Still waking through the night for feeds...thought Miss C was late when she didn't sleep through until 6mths now just wishing Miss W would. But she does settle straight back down after a feed. Generally goes to bed around 6.30 and up in the morning at 6.30. Miss C usually comes in anytime from 4.30am and if its a good morning she'll just go back to sleep in our bed. Luckily I can survive on minimal sleep.
Loving her solids, especially mild Indian (!) pureed and served with whole rice grains. Also loves spiral pasta with some bolognaise which she just shovels into her mouth like no tomorrow. Still not keen on the bottle (even EBM) so no sleep throughs for me yet (even if I could convince DH to get up !) But it has meant no AF yet which I'm happy about.

On a sadder note, I lost my 2 beautiful labradors last week. Both were getting on in age, but I hadn't expected them to go just yet. My girl went very suddenly (vet only gave her hours to go) and my old boy had been struggling for a while and medications weren't helping so had to make a very difficult decision to let him go to Rainbow Bridge with his mate. Miss C has asked a few times where they are and i have just said that they are sleeping - she seems to be satisfied with that explanation, don't think she is quite at the stage of grasping the situation yet so feel it better not to say too much.

On the topic of car seats. I moved Miss W to forward facing a couple of weeks ago - she loves being able to see what is going on. She had been trying to sit up whenever I put her in the rear facing seat for a while.

Hope everyone and their bubs are well, those that have been crook/teething etc I hope all is getting better.

Cheers'
Jo
