A Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba

or in other words, it's been a busy week. All the changes started last Wednesday when Mammy gave me a bottle. I've had bottles before from Daddy and from other people but never from Mammy and this one tasted different. I like it quite a lot which is just as wellbecause I'm getting one every day now. But they try to give me quite a lot and I'm not always thristy enough for that much. And I'm so busy eating 2 meals a day (which going much better now that Mammy is watering the food down a bit more) that I don't have time for whole bottles.

Then on Thursday when I was in the park with Mammy and Ella and Ruth and Stephanie, Mammy noticed my first tooth peeping through. She nearly missed it because it was on the bottom - it's the front tooth on the right hand side at the bottom - and she had been keeping an eye on the top. So it's out now but it's only peeping up a little bit so far. I'd say it'll be razor sharp. And it probably explains why I wasn't so happy sleeping a few nights last week. And why my nappies were extra specially horrible on Wednesday.

To top it all, yesterday morning I decided to try out talking. At about half seven in the morning I said, a ba ba ba to Daddy. He woke Mammy up to tell her but of course she didn't believe it because she hadn't heard it herself. So I said it again another few times during the day and again today because I like the sound of it. I can also say something that sounds like "va va va" and if you listen very carfeully, Mammy and Emma think I can also say "a ma ma" although Emma's sure this is my version of "em ma".

That was a lot of progress for just one week. And as you can see from the photo, I'm getting very good at spending time on my tummy now too...
