Hey Ladies!

I'm back! We've just come back from a lovely family holiday! Stayed in a holiday house near the beach with its own pool. Was really lovely. The kids were absolutely fantastic. DS slept in his portacot totally fine, was surprised there were no issues, but then he is a very cruisy boy. DD had a ball in the pool and on the waterslides we visited. Our car was packed to the brim, Jo! We didn't even manage to fit the big pram in. With having to take linen and towels for the house, portacot, food, etc something had to give! So we had the stroller for DD and sling for DS. Great extra long weekend, though.

As for solids, not planning to start until 6 months, even then DD was a little hesitant. Will see how we go, but no earlier than that. Not sure what I think about the rice vs finger food thing. Will play that by ear depending on the advice I get at the time and what I think will work. It's ridiculous that things have changed so much in between kids. To me, that just shows that they don't really know what's best!
