We had a much better night last night, only one wake up. His day naps are generally great, just nights we have issues with. He is cutting 4 teeth and it looks like one has just cut the gum, so hopefully the others will come through quickly.

I can't believe some bubs are starting to walk and stand etc, we've only just mastered crawling! LOL Weird for me because my other two reached these milestones a lot earlier.

Also wanted to ask what sorts of food your bubs are eating? Lacking a bit of inspiration at the moment. I'll add ours too:

Breakfast
Usually just Rafferty's Garden cereal and some fruit
Have started giving him toast and raisin toast occasionally just cut into fingers for now

Lunch
Rice cakes with hommous or some other spread
Baked beans
Yoghurt
Fruit
Pasta and sauce
zucchini slice

Dinner
Usually a mix of meat/veg/rice or pasta. I made him up a batch of food last fortnight and he LOVED it. Just beef mince, grated carrot, corn kernels, baby peas, tin of tomatoes and a little gravy powder, touch of tomato paste. Then I cooked some rice and stirred it through. Makes about 10 meals so I freeze them and he has them for dinner. He also likes spag bol or pasta shells with pumpkin and sweet corn stirred through.

Its lunch I kinda struggle with to be honest. He's not quite ready for sandwiches I don't think, he'd gag too much. Toast is OK but bread is too soft I think Would love to hear what your bubs are enjoying. I'd like to give him more fresh fruit cut up but apart from watermelon, everything still seems a bit advanced for now. He did have a few sultanas today and managed those OK. We've only started yoghurt in the last few days because his brother has a lactose intolerance and couldn't have it so I kinda forgot about it until now! No problems so far, so hoping he doesn't follow in his brother's footsteps.
