5 months

(and 4 days) so another month has passed :(

Little man is now 5 months old (sobs a little) so he is now starting to wean, sitting up on his own, has rolled from back to front and does an excellent crunch the second he wakes up! He is getting even more vocal and getting very active, those chunky legs are always on the go.

Today we went to 'notts tots' which is basically baby gymnastics. In the room was lots of apparatuse set up so that the kiddies could climb, slide, crawl over, on and through. I knew Erin would love it, her lack of coordination was going to be the problem, but to be fair she did very well, albeit a bit of a fluke that she didn't fall.
She'd be walking on the balance beam but checking out the rest of the class, when I say look at your feet, nothing. So I ask where are you feet? So she lifts her leg high, now you just showing off!!
The two instructors set up two different stations with different activities. The first one was to do a (aided) forward and backwards roll over a Raised box, and as a reward all the kiddies get a stamp. Erin was very reluctant at first but 4 stamps later she moved onto the next thing. The second one was to jump (again aided) on a trampoline, over a box then back to the floor. And again 4 stamps later she was done with that. Think I did the biggest workout not only was I supporting Erin but also carrying chunk round who got board in his pushchair.

And also today me and mum have joined weight watchers. I will shift this last bit of baby weight!! My aim is 6 lb by xmas, wish me luck.
