Some things about me
I keep wanting to make posts about things in detail but feeling they would end up too rambly, long and boring, or take too long to write. So here is a summary, also known as things you may not know about me. I ramble too much so please ask me questions if you are interested; a direct question makes it easier for me to elaborate without boring ( Read more... ) -
Smile
We all have colds and Ryan is going through the 4-month sleep regression. Apparently this is something to do with the fact at 4 months they are interested in everything and keep getting distracted during feeds, so they feed a lot through the night to make up for it. It was fine to begin with as I just brought him back into our bed but now he can't ( Read more... ) -
Voice of Ryan 1
Hey, I just realised, if I do this, I can move that flailing thing. Wow! What about if I do this?
Cool! I can control these things. What did Mum call them again, hands? Now I just have to work out what they are for.

This makes so much more sense now! Hands are clearly for getting things to my mouth, for purposes of exploring. Of course. Nyom ( Read more... ) -
Ebay woes
I am annoyed now because I have just noticed this little outfit I got from ebay is 0-3 months instead of 3-6 months. I looked at the listing but the size wasn't mentioned, which was when I remembered I bought it as a gamble because all the other clothes the seller had were 3-6 months and there was less than 30 minutes left so I couldn't email them ( Read more... ) -
Self Assessment Tax
I have been really panicking about getting my tax return done before the deadline of 31 January, and someone decides to tell me NOW that it's the 2007-08 tax, not the 08-09 tax, that needs to be paid! I wasn't self employed in the last tax year, just this one, so that is a relief as it means I don't have to do anything until next year ( Read more... ) -
Development
Just a quick note more for myself than anything. Ryan rolled over this morning from back to front. He is not at all interested in rolling from front to back but is still attempting to shuffle-crawl commando style. So the rolling thing is all backwards! Also, since last Tuesday if I put his dummy in his hand the right way round (or he takes it out ( Read more... ) -
Out of Stock
Grr, I'm really annoyed at myself! I was going to buy a fisher price rainforest booster seat for Ryan instead of a high chair, because they were in the argos end of catalogue clearance sale for £17 - and our house is so tiny there isn't really any room for a high chair anyway - but I left it too late and they haven't got any left in any of our ( Read more... ) -
BLW
I have made a plan to get us eating from a table (and not off our laps) by the time Ryan is 6 months old. I have also realised that at some point we are going to have to completely cut out takeaways and processed foods as he will be eating with us in 3-5 months time! This includes packet and jar sauces apparently, because they contain too much salt ( Read more... ) -
14 Weeks + 1 day
For the last two days Ryan has been trying desparately to roll over and getting increasingly frustrated by it. Then if I put him on his front he shuffles miserably forwards as if trying to crawl.
