My mood while writing this blog: Alright I guess!!!

Hi all you lovely ladies!

I wondered where February went, but now, March, April and May almost done and dusted.

These months have been interesting to say the least, I have been more pre-occupied with work than anything else, but my baby boy has also grown into a little smiling machine, even at 2am in the morning, not the time to be smiling and shaking his little booty for me to pick him up, but nevertheless. He also is doing great with his solids, has not taken to the lumpy food yet, just enjoys his smooth baby foods and when you try and give him anything lumpy, boy does he pull that mouth stiff, you will not be able to put one more drop in his mouth. He especially likes vegetables and lamb with peaches. Doesn't like the dessert too much, which is a good thing, I think. He loves sucking on a lollipop and can hold on really tight if you try and take it away. He has not started crawling yet, has anyone else's little one's started?? But he loves standing, with me holding ofcourse. Everytime I put him down to sit, he pulls his legs stiff so that he can stand. I think this little man's gonna move straight to walking and not even crawl. Bouncer and bumbo seat are no longer safe for him, tries to wriggle himself out of them and turns 180 degrees, so I've got to be so careful when I put him in those. No teef (as Ty says it) yet either.

On the home front, Neil and I have been arguing about how little he does, I guess its because I'm just so tired and havent slept properly in a very very long time. But seriously, the man still does very little around the house, if not feeding the dogs, then he eats, shits and sleeps. So now I've got him to wash and bath the kids, not Jayden, and dressing them both, while I take some time out after cooking and feeding baby, not like I can even take time out, I've got to still make his bottle for the evening and then pack his bag for the next day, and then I've got to put him to sleep, which eventually ends up being the other way around, I fall asleep!!!

Ah, such are the joys of life and parenthood!!!!

Besides the tiredness, I enjoy every minute of being a mother to this awesome person, he is the highlight of my day!
