Hello everyone, sorry to not have been posting very much - it's been pretty busy here in HK and I can't always get on the computer for long! Matthew's two bottom teeth are through and visible but he's still drooling and seems to be more bothered now than when they were coming up. Not sure if this means that others are on the way but I've started him on teething rusks and teething biscuits that we bought at a supermarket here. I was going to hold off until he was 6 months to start him on solids, as directed by the early childhood nurse but given the gusto with which Matthew is chewing on the rusks, think we will be letting him try solids this week. He's 5 and a half months so think it should be all right.

We took Matthew to HK Disneyland on Friday and despite being too young for pretty well everything there, he did enjoy the big parade and the fireworks at the end of the day. Grizzled a lot and had a good scream when mobbed by about 20 Chinese women all trying to get him to smile. A common occurrence here :P

Glad to know everyone seems to be dealing with the same grizzles and whinginess - it will get better, won't it?
