Woohoo, my avi is up! I love it!!! Thanks to my RAK'er and RainbowBrite for creating it!

OP - thanks for the update on X! Sounds like he's cruising along nicely! Literally! How many teeth is that now? About that ticker message, I tried clicking the links in it to the policies and they didn't work. That's what made me think it was spam. Suppose I should look into it...

Dr T - thanks for the saline suggestion. Next time he has the runny nose I'll give it a go. How funny that B has started saying the dog's name before mum or dad! What a cutie. T just tries to imitate kitty's meow when he sees her. Poor kitty. He loves her so much, and just like B and your dogs he pulls her fur, ears and tail and smothers her with love. But of course he's a few kilos heavier than she is and I am constantly pulling him off her to stop him from squashing her! I hate to stop him from touching her altogether, it's so cute when he gives her a pain-free cuddle and buries his face in her fur. Just that the nice interactions are much rarer than the annoying baby (from kitty's point of view) ones!

Nice work B getting up to stand without pulling himself up!

AFU - not much to report. T has been going stir crazy the last couple of days. Even a trip to ikea to crawl through the tunnels between rooms in the kid's section didn't satisfy him. I wish I had a giant obstacle course for him to climb and crawl over. Sleep still no good which doesn't help, I suspect he's been over tired the last couple of afternoons because he's had his first nap too late and can't get in a second.

On that note, I'm off to bed in case there are hourly wake ups tonight like the last 2 nights.
