It’s been quite a while, hasn’t it? Well, that’s because every waking minute of my day is taken up looking after my little man. He was 6 months old on Saturday (13th September) which to be honest, just shocks me. How did he get to be 6 months old already? Where has the time gone?
He is now 16lb 4.5oz. Is around 68cm in length and is being weaned. We made it to 6 months with him being exclusively breastfed, which pleases me more than I can begin to describe. He is a joy to be around. He can be an absolute terror at times, but, all in all, he has calmed down a lot and smiles continuously so his tantrums are easily forgiven. If there was one thing I could change about him, it would be his scream. It’s awful. I’ve never heard anything like it and I actually believe that one day he will make my ears bleed. LOL.
He loves being outdoors, doesn’t like to be stuck in so much so we spend a lot of time out and about. I take him to farms, zoos, parks, you name it, we do it. His hair is still a gorgeous shade of red. I love it. Some days it looks blondish, other days bordering on brown, but he is a definite red head!
He loves, and I mean LOVES, In The Night Garden and more specifically, IgglePiggle. He goes crazy when IgglePiggle comes skipping down the path on the TV show. It’s extremely cute and I rewind the DVD 8 times in one sitting just to see the excitement in his face (and whole body) over and over again!
He still isn’t a good sleeper. I never get more than 2 hours at a time at night, something I think I am now used to, although I am always pretty tired, but I won’t complain, it’s all part of being a Mummy and having something more special than you can describe.
