My mood while writing this blog: Ok

My gosh I am sooooooooooooooooooooo late with this blog ladies (Jayden actualy turned 5 months on Monday LOL) I have just been soooooo busy and sooooo tired!

Anways he is doing really well.....he has hit all his milstones as he should - he is talking so much these days, he laughs and smiles and giggles (it just melts my heart), he loves sitting up and can do it by himself for about 5mins until he tips over HaHa, he will have tummy time and try and wiggle around with him legs and scoot up so I think he will start crawling soon, he loves sitting on peoples laps and rocking back and forth.

He has started solids (He was so ready for food) - he has cereal with banana / apple for breakfast and has pureed food (veggies - chicken / meat) for lunch, then he has custard or pureed fruit for a evening snack - he still has ebm in between (while im at work) but he is pretty on track with his "eating times",6.30am - bm from mummy, 9.30am - breakfast and maybe half a bottle on ebm, 12.30pm - lunch, 3.00pm - fully bottle of ebm, 6 / 7pm - evening snack, 9 / 10pm - full bottle of ebm, 2/3am - bm from mummy! I did try and replace dinner with his evening snack but he would take a few spoons and then put it out of his mouth or look away - so he is clearly not ready for dinner ....I might start dinner in a few weeks - but my gosh he loves his food....he makes MmMmMm noises and gets all excited when he see's his spoon and bowl and sometimes gets mad if I take to long in between spoons - he just goobles it up LOL!

He is still teething - no teeth have cut through yet, his sleep has been pretty good - I only get up 1/2 times a night (but they say that is normal for breast feed babies) - we do have our bad nights where he thinks it is play time at 2am and then wont go back to sleep until 5am and being back at work that can be so draining!

My Mum has been having so much fun looking after him and is enjoying every minute of it - she only has 4 more weeks and then he will be back with my MONSTER IN LAW (which I am not looking forward too because I am having issue with her) so arghhhhhhhhh!!!

I am just soooooo in-love with my little man....he is truley the greatest gift that God has given Trav and Myself - he is growing right on track and reaching all his milestones as he should be - he is a real blessing!

I hope you ladies and your little ones and pregnancies and your ttc is going well - God Bless!

Big hugs and kisses - Sharon xo
