Month 4.5

Hello All- Its been a little while since we last spoke and Mum sends her apologies. She has had a bung back which has made sitting in front of the computer impossible. Her osteo also said that breastfeeding me was releasing hormones that kept her back muscles untoned...so she has had to wean me recently. Good thing I love her or I would trade her up for a newer model.

We have had some lovely days on the couch however!

New learnings for this month:

My Aunty Steph's finger makes for a good teething rusk. I think she needs to toughen up a bit though....how hard can a baby really bite?

Mum learnt that the stroller is good for inside as well as out. She doesn't have to lean down so far to grab me like when I am in the bouncer.

What she expects me to do with these rings I'm not sure though..

I'm really enjoying the variety of many floor mats we have been given...

And so is Dad...This one has a tricky elephant ear that makes cool noises. I'm trying to work out how to rip it off. So far it seems to be too well made...

Granny and Grandpa have got one too...I really like the frogs

Grandpa has been trying to teach me about matching my socks with my outfit...I thought Mum did a good job!

My Mum says my Daddy is the best in the whole world. After a hard week at work he has been helping with me and the housework when she has been too sore to do it.

But even if she is a little broken right now...she still tries hard.

But I've gotta stop having these late nights and early mornings...

Overall a good 6 weeks or so for me. My growth is all normal, my dexterity is great, I'm still very strong and I enjoy increasing my social skills with all the wonderful visitors. As soon as Mum toughens up I'll be ready to take on the world!
