Not sure how long I'll have... I put B to bed about 20 mins ago but he's still lying there awake - he's done the rolling, the banging his feet on the mattress and the chatting and is now just lying there. I'm kinda surprised as he hasn't called out and has never done that before so we'll see how much longer he goes...

Good to hear from everyone!

Food - Wow, everyone else's bubs seem to be such good eaters. I have decided that Saturday will be our first official day of solids! We're going away shortly and I don't want to be introducing solids while we're on hols and don't want to wait until we get back either. As I've said before, any time I've given B anything, he spits it out like it's poisoned so not too hopeful he'll take to it...

Clothes - B is still in 000 clothes but the bodysuits are getting a little small so we'll go to 00 shortly. I still find the size difference amazing between brands - some 000 are still too big, while some he's grown out of. Shirts are all still 000.

Colds - I am dreading B's first sickness - I will be heartbroken for him, but more importantly (), I'm dreading the broken sleep!

Teething - It's hard to know if he is or not. The amount of drool coming out of his mouth drenches his shirt, despite me wiping him almost constantly and he is chewing anything he can get in his mouth. But I'm guessing the true teething test will be when he won't sleep and is constantly grizzly, right? Not looking forward to that....

Sleep - Well, after being in tears for about four days, B seems to be loving putting himself to sleep atm! He's going down pretty easily, doesn't seem to want to be cuddled much anymore and hasn't 'tested' me for a good few days! DH and I had 'words' on the weekend cos he's never had a problem so thinks it's OK to lecture me as to what I'm doing 'wrong' when I put him down. Grrr, men! On the downside, we're back to only 3 x 40 min day naps with just the odd longer one. He mostly sleeps at night from about 7:30pm til around 5:30am, then goes back down anywhere from 10 mins to 3 hours! No such thing as a routine around here!

Voice - I swear I have a strangled cat/pirate for a son! I can also make out some word-like noises but just not sure what words yet! And raspberries galore the past two days - could that be related to teething?

SSM and Phoenix - Hope your little ones are feeling better real soon.

Hi caplay, sleepy, traylee and anyone else stalking out there!

BTW, he's asleep!!! Woo hoo, another afternoon nap without the fight!!
