saffi - i gave james his toothbrush before he had teeth. he has watched DH brush his teeth when they're in the shower for 7 months, so he was dying to have a go. he gets a bit of paste and he hangs onto it while they shower. he does a cursory brush and dh finishes it at the end. dh puts his thumb on james' chin and then does the bottom ones... he also does the part where the top ones are coming through.
i say, 'brusha brusha' when he's in the bath and i do my best to chase him round to brush.
speaking of top teeth... finally the top left popped through. thank god. the kid has been awful at night. the hot weather hasn't been helping.
he's standing on his own all the time now and shifting weight. he's definitely plotting how to get moving but he spooks himself when he shifts too much weight off one foot. it's cute.
he also stands up and dances to the night garden theme tune. bending his knees in time. it's so damn cute it makes me want another one. *shock*
also, dh revealed on saturday (after a couple of beers) that he wants another one "just like james"...
eeeeek.
*bats away dh with broom*
(secretly i've got the ticking back again... gah!)
nooooooo.
i would like at least a few months sleep before i try that **** again.
