Clare I get what you're saying but gee! A bit more warning would have been nice so you could have gotten yourself better prepared for it mentally. I know! it was far enough that I had to drive down and get him LOL. And it's sooo hard to be cross at them for it because you know their little hearts were in the right place and they are just so darn cute when they do it.

ETA - I forgot to say we don't do bottles anymore! I just started doing the 'don't ask, don't refuse' thing and he's not worried about a bottle of milk for about a week. With the really hot nights he was waking up thirsty so I would put water in a bottle for him to have in bed. So that's another thing I can cross off the 'He's still a baby because..." list ROFL. The only things left are sleeping in the cot and nappies. Then he's just my little boy
