Ollie has his very first taste of cucumber. He really seemed to enjoy it. Maybe because it was lovely and cold on his gums! It’s cool that he is at the age now where he can [...]

My poor wee man

Ollie has moved on to the number 3 milk! I figured since he is only having 3 bottles a day now that maybe this would be a way to get extra vitamins into him!

7 months today!
O0o0o0oh my goodness how fast the year is going! I can’t believe that Ollie is now 7 months old. He is changing so so much everyday.
He is becoming so much more interested in his toys rather than chewing EVERYTHING. The music makers (jingly thing and a shakey thing etc) I got him for Christmas are [...]

4. [...]

Ollie still sick…
Ollie’s chest has cleared massively but he is still so so congested. His little nose is running constantly and he has a very chesty cough. His mood has been fine the last couple of days but the nights have been horrendous with him waking almost every hour!! Were not sure what is causing it or [...]

Ollie’s First Christmas!

Christmas Eve was spent with my family. My youngest brother Ryan was away to Scotland with my dad to spend Christmas with relatives, so my mum and Harry came over after lunch time. Mum helped me decorate Christmas cookies and then we went out for dinner with my other brother Jason. we [...]

WOOHOO!
Ollie cut his first tooth today! You can’t see it yet but I can feel that it has cut through his gum! On Christmas! So proud of him. He is in the happiest mood today that I’ve ever seen him and I’m sure it is because the tooth is through and relieved him of a [...]

This is how my Christmas table looks so far. I know I have decorated it early, but our kitchen is very open plan and looks a little un-Charistmassy… so I decorated to jazz it up a little!

p.s….
Ollie smiles at him self and then hides his face whenever I get him to look in the mirror. He has never paid any attention to his reflection but in the past week he has TOTALLY noticed. He squeals with delight when he seems himself. I’m not sure if he knows it is him… or [...]

Were all doing good here… had a really busy weekend!
Our car kind of gave up the ghost during the week… so many things were going wrong with it and the last was the radiator so we decided to take out a car loan and buy a new one. We got a lovely gunmetal grey Seat [...]

Clever Boy!
Ollie has dropped his 11pm feed…. now he is on just 4 milk feeds a day!
He kind of did this himself… but the wrong way around. He would drink the 11pm feed but would’nt drink any of his 7am feed. So last night we didn’t give the 11pm feed and this morning he took a [...]

…and last night?
OK… he didn’t need picked up or anything but he did wake at about 1am… James went in and it was just that he had kicked all his blankets off! Once he had fixed his blankets he went off to sleep straight away. James said he also woke up at 5am and fussed for about [...]

His own room!
We finally (well James finally… I can’t take the credit), cleared out the ‘miscellaneous room’ in time for Ollie spending his first night in there on his own! It looks nice. The large cupboard is getting picked up tomorrow and the room will be even nicer! I’m a little nervous that he won’t like it, [...]

Aw my little Ollie…
ALMOST slept through the night again. I think he is waking not because he is hungry (he only takes 30ml or so if James tries to give him a bottle in the night!)… but because his teeth are so sore. Maybe that’s why he woke so much the other night… and in our sleepiness didn’t [...]

Were not happy today!
Ollie has never been an upset baby…in fact he hardly ever used to cry but now with his teething he seems to have learnt. He cries when i’m there and he cries when I leave the room and last night he woke 6 times in the night crying! It might be down to his sore [...]

Adventures in Weaning Part 2
So Ollie is now on two meals a day… when I say meals I don’t mean MEALS… he already seems to be a fussy eater and only really eats a lot of fruit… he doesn’t seem to be all that keen on ANY of his vegetables!
He has been having baby porridge for breakfast (which he [...]

My arms feel useless!
Today I haven’t had to hold baby and a bottle… I haven’t had to push a pram… pick up crying Ollie or throw him in the air to make him giggle… I haven’t had to cuddle him in my arms to help him fall asleep for his naps…
My arms feel useless…. but at the end [...]

Ollie is going to Granny’s this morning and is not coming back until lunchtime tomorrow! I have no plans… I should have plans…. I should get the housework doe but I think a day to myself should be spent doing something fun I can’t do with Ollie… like getting my nails done….

My baby is 5 months today!
He is growing so fast! His little personality is not so little anymore. He chats and smiles at everyone he meets! He knows familiar faces and I THINK he can roll (most of the time he is a little lazy to try though) (I think he can roll because I had to catch him nearly [...]

Carrots are a no-no!
Ollie’s solids are going ok and he is now eating about 3 teaspoons of puree :)
So far he has had the pear, which he was confused at but enjoyed and yesterday I tried carrot. I made the carrot puree myself so it could have been my cooking skills, but he HATED it. His face was [...]

It went a bit better than I expected. I thought it was super sweet so I mixed in a little bit of his rice to bring the strength of the flavour down a little bit. He seemed a bit confused at first then seemed to really enjoy it. He opened his mouth after swallowing each [...]

There is a shortage…
on Ollie’s formula! Were currently using the Aptamil number 1 formula but we can’t find it anywhere! Everywhere seems to be sold out and only selling the number 2 (hungrier babies) or the easy digest… :( We got the easy digest stuff as I thought that would be closer to the original than changing brands!

Adventures in weaning!
Ollie has been having rice now for a few days… he gobbles it down and has had no tummy problems… so I think he is ready to try something else. Yesterday I went and bought more apples and pears (already pureed and frozen a few of those previously), some potatoes and carrots! I went WILD [...]

After a blissful 4 or 5 days the teething seems to have come back with a vengence. Ollie had a few really happy and settled days which I think is the calm before the storm… I think his teething is really going to take of soon and maybe a tooth will come through… it has [...]

Staying at Nanny’s!
Last night Ollie stayed over at James’ mum’s house for the first time. He slept through the night!! What?? Why won’t he sleep thorugh the night here at home where I try my hardest but he will sleep through at both of his grannies houses. I find it a little bit cheeky to be honest [...]

Miserable night!
I didn’t take Ollie for his jabs on Tuesday… he was in strange form… wouldn’t even smile for my mum and that’s extremely uusual!!! So I figured that if there was something wrong or he was getting sick then it was probably best to reschedule.
Yesterday we started Christmas shopping. I got Ollie’s presents form the [...]

Jabs
Ollie is going to get his next set of jabs today. The last set before his 12 month boosters! Instead of just 2 injections, today he is getting 3 so I am not planning on him being very happy! Our health visitor is lovely though and tries to make it as easy as possible.
