6 Months 4 Weeks

My first time at the beach. The whole family went on a picnic with friends of Mummy and Daddy. I got to touch grass for the first time and played with other kids. Things were going pretty well, just after this shot was taken I fell head first into the sand and got a mouth full. Mummy panicked and Daddy wondered off. After a few cries and Mummy sticking her fingers in my mouth, everything was alright, except for the taste.

Mummy brought me a new toy. It plays many tunes and teaches me to count and say the alphabet amongst other things. I like to close the computer, see I'm doing it now. It looks so much neater that way.

After a few days of crying nights my two bottom from teeth have made their way out and now you can see them. I have put my parents through sleepless nights over the last few days, but get use to it, there will be plenty of sleepless nights over the next few years.

Off to the Doctors today to receive my 6 monthly injections.

After waiting so long for my name to be called up, why do we make appointments? We went to another room. I sat on the table and received two injections. The first one into my left leg which I did not even feel, the second one in my right leg made me scream out for a few seconds and that was it.

I don't know what all the fuss is about. The lady in the waiting room said her daughter screamed and cried for ages as it really hurts.

That goodness that is over for another six months.

Oh it has been an interesting few days.

Since the visit to the clinic, there has been a change in my diet. I am now eating Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. But I do not know what they have been making for me. After we left he clinic, Mummy and Daddy brought some chicken for my dinner. I did not like it at all. They pureed the chicken and mixed it with my vegetables, Mummy leave my vegetables alone, who eats pureed chicken anyway?

The next day Daddy fed me this chicken stuff again, I nearly spewed it all over him. I was gaging each time he gave it to me. I think he got he ratio all wrong. One cube of vegetables and one cube of chicken does not work. He threw that out and gave me vegetables. Now thats what Im talking about.

The next day Daddy divided the ration a little better, two cubes of vegetables and a quarter cube of chicken. I ate it but did not enjoy it at all.

Today was much better, Daddy threw the pureed chicken out and made a nice batch of Green Split Pea (for protein), Potato and Sweet Potato. This is so much nicer and I ate it all up.

Daddy I just don't like that chicken stuff, leave it off my vegetables.

6 Month 1 Week

A visit to the clinic to have my six monthly check up.

Here are the facts:

Weight is 19.9lbs (9.015 kg)

Length is 27.2 inches (69cm)

Head Circumference is 17.7 inches (45cm)

I'm well in the top 90% for my weight, just in the 90% for my height and well within the 90% for my head circumference.

So at the moment everything is on track, well except for my sleeping patterns. I wake about 3.00am each morning and scream the house down. The nurse believes that I may be hungry and need some protein in my diet and to increase my feeds to three meals a day and decrease my bottle intake to 180mls before my feeds and 240mls before bed.

I don't think I like this lady.

Happy Fathers Day

I could not decide what you get you. I know you like shopping, so I thought a gift voucher at Y.D so you can purchase something you like. Hope you enjoy it.

I went to the eye specialist today to have my watery eye checked out. Mummy and Daddy took me to the Prince of Wales Hospital at Randwick. Things were looking up, cause as soon as we sat down we were called into a room with the nurse.

The nurse conducted a number of eye checks, she kept sticking up placards with white and black strips at one end, each time she threw a card up the strips changed ends sometimes. The strips got smaller and smaller each time. The nurse also kept shining light in my eyes, I like looking at lights.

Suddenly my eyes stung a little as she put drops in my eyes, everyone was saying what a good boy I was. Ahhh I am brillant.

We went out to the waiting rooms and sat there for 2 hours. The doctor called us into another room and ten minutes later we left with everything in its correct order.

The first nurse walked into the room and spoke to another nurse, they were talking about me. The nurses and the doctor could not believe what a good patient I was. The doctor mentioned that I was so placid.

Im so perfect, I think that I have ruined the thoughts of my parents haveing another baby as it could not be as good as me.

For the first time I had yoghurt today. Daddy brought me one especially for babies. But I didn't like it that much, when he fed it to me I scrunched up my face at the taste of it.

But I ate it anyway..

Today is Nunno's birthday. Happy Birthday NUNNO
