My son is 3 and a half months old!! Its crazy!! He just got so big and started doing stuff and getting even scrummier!! And then i realised that id hardly taken any fotos of him in the last couple of weeks, and instantly went into a mini frenzy in the 5 mins before his bed time! Poor kid must think his mum has a flash attached to her head, he always looks so concerned!

| I found this one for his daddy, the Star Wars fan! |
 |
| Considering munching his tasty toy... |
 |
| Deciding to munch the pillow instead! |
 |
| Look at me being all strong and tall!! |
 |
| Tell tale drool patch....He's spied something tasty looking! |
I thought since i tend to waffle and go completely off on little tangents when i write posts, that i'l just quickly jot some of the things that my amazing and marvelous lil' guy can do!!
- He can now dribble with amazing proficiency
- He can reach out and grab things!! (letting go hasn't been achieved yet and has caused a few tears)
- He
screams squeals laughs out loud, especially when its daddy-play-time
- He can and does put everything in his mouth to gnaw on, leaving buckets of drool behind! (i cant be the only one out there who finds this gorgeous!)
- He can hold a conversation with his wipes box for a good 5 mins!! His chatter has taken on a few more sounds other than Gorilla, and now include Mouse and Excited/Happy Gorilla!!
While he was lying on the floor the other day i saw him actually see his hand, and then with the hugest go cross eyed type concentration, he brought his hand to his mouth and started to chew on it!!! I cant begin to explain how excited i was by this!!
We're thinking about cloth nappies now too, which is gunna be fun given my lack of laundry skills! But we would like to try to be a wee bit kinder to the environment and so it'l be worth the effort i think! Iv heard lotsa good things about them, and depending on the type of laundry products i use, we should be able to save a lil' bit too. Bad things iv heard include nasty nappy rash stories and some leakage tales that i could'v done without hearing! Mind you, this week 2 outfits and one blanky have been permanently scarred by explosive side seepage, so there really wont be much difference there! I'l keep ya updated anyway, and i welcome any feedback/comments/suggestions from other cloth nappy users out there!!
Toodles for now!!!
I might have considered cloth but we do not have a washer/dryer in our apartment so that would not really work out well OR save any money :( It would be nice to put something more natural, less chemical and better for the environment on my babes :( If I had seriously considered it sooner (their 9 mos old now), I might have thought about diaper service but it would just be too expensive for all of it at this point! I wish you the best with your new venture though :) Good luck and your baby boy is A-dorable! :)
ReplyDeletethanks! It is very easy to doubt yourself, especially when they are so little and are hurting but can't tell you where!!! Mom-tuition is a powerful thing! :)
