I have teeth. Not tooth. Teeth. Last Saturday my second tooth popped through my gum above my first tooth so I could click them together. Then, on Monday my other top middle tooth came through but I can't click that one because the bottom one isn't about yet. Two weeks ago I had no teeth and now I have three! They clatter and click when you bite ( Read more... )

I am super-happy at the moment. I feel all full of energy and, now that I can crawl, I want to look at everything. I have an octopus gene which means that even though I have only two arms that you can see, I secretly and invisibly have eight and I can reach in eight directions all at the same time. I've realised that not everything has to go in ( Read more... )

Today I am 9 months and 6 days old and I have my first tooth. This morning Mummy told Claire that I had a 'nearly tooth' and she expected it to pop out today - and it did! It is white and shiny. Mummy is obsessed by it and keeps wanting to look at it but I am not that bothered. I have seen and grabbed enough teeth of other people not to need to ( Read more... )

Now I am officially ill. The doctor says I have viral gastroenteritis (isn't my spelling good for a 9 month old!). I haven't eaten properly since last Saturday really and I've been sick a lot ( Read more... )

Oh, oh, oh I am not well. I have been feeling very sorry for myself for nearly four days now. My mouth hurts and my tummy hurts and I am too hot. Mummy keeps making me drink nasty sticky strawberry flavoured syrup which I hate and the world is just horrible. I have learned how to hold it in the back of my throat and then blow raspberries with it. ( Read more... )

I have been practising getting around a lot lately, and doing more chewing stuff too. I can't crawl but I can bum shuffle a little bit. What I am best at is still rolling everywhere. I have used my chewing and rolling skills ot best effect in the living room. We have an electrical cable from the socket to the hifi. The hifi has lots of lights. I ( Read more... )

Two updates in two days. I am feeling very literate at the moment. It must be the jelly. Yesterday at nursery we got to play with strawberry jelly - it was fantastic! You could spread it all over the place and rub it in your eyes, ears and hair before you ate it. I even threw some at my keyworker. I was so tired when I got home that I could hardly ( Read more... )

It is such a long time since I wrote. I have been very very busy at nursery and at home learning how to do things. About a month ago I learned how to sit up and not fall over. I'd been sitting up for a few minutes for ages but now I can roll about to where I want to be and then sit up if there's something to pull myself up on ( Read more... )

I have decided that salmon is the yummiest dinner I have had so far. It is much tastier than nasty dry turkey so I ate so much I nearly burst yesterday. Baked potato with cheese and carrot was pretty good today aswell. I'm either going into another growth spurt or I'm making up for being poorly last week. My cold and chest infection have almost ( Read more... )

Now that I am six months old I can do lots of things. I eat everything that is given to me, even plastic spoons and the remote control. Mostly though, I like beef stew, chicken curry, chicken tagine and roast pork with vegetables. Stir-fried turkey is very good for smearing in my hair but I don't much like to eat it. I have even learned to hold my ( Read more... )
