So how is everyone lo doing this week. Jacob is doing great he can now take 2-3 steps from the sofa towards me before losing his balance. and can stand alone for about 10secs until he realises and grabs something
His 9th and 10th tooth poking out now, so he has 4 on bottom and 6 on top now the 2 new ones are the pointy ones, not giving him any bother yet so been quiet lucky. He is now sleeping 7pm till 7am straight, but i think this is due to him dropping all naps in the day unless we go out and he gets bored lol.
Eating is becoming a problem he refuses everything now more interested in playing than eating...and hates to be fed so its all finger foods at the mo, tried a spoon but it does it backwards and get the food all down him
so how is everyone else's doing?? XxxxX
Hi Ema
How fantastic is Jacob doing!!!!! You go boy
And how many teeth??!!
Gabbi has just got her third coming through, 3 1/2 months after she got her first 2! My sister said my niece didn't get her first till she was almost 14 months old!! She had strong gums! lol
Gabbi has taken 4 steps, BUT I almost forced her, started a few feet away from her dad and she walked!!!! Well she is daddy's girl!!! Luckily I was on Skype with my mum and she saw it!!!
She stands on her own or leans against something with her thighs. BUT I caught her standing one day, not holding or leaning, she saw me look at put her hand down on the table!!!! No need to try and pretend you can't stand Gabbi, you were caught!!!!!
She's been off her food a little for the last couple of days, so maybe she has more teeth coming through. We are going on a long weekend holiday this weekend, not sure how long, flexible, 4 - 7 days, depending on how much money we're spending!!!! So I'm off buying Hipp jars today, I hope she likes them. She tried one of my friends a few weeks ago, so hopefully she'll be ok. I am also going to look at the buckets and spades they have in the shop
Got to build sandcastles
Also going to see if they have anything inflatable. My sister got my niece a type of ring, but it had a seat in it so she couldn't fall through. Not seen anything like that here, but we'll see what's available.
Gabbi went for her check up last week. Her head circ is 42.3 cm. 0.3cm bigger than last month, in fact, her head circ has been 42 cm for the last few months. What do your LO"s head measure??
Her weight ............................ the scales are still broke.
Her length ............................. same as last month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok we did it at home in the end:
She's 10.6 kilos, 600 grams heavier
Her length is 75 cms, 2 cms longer than last month.
if you go off the percentile chart:
Length to age - steady for last 4 months at approx. 85
Weight to age - slowly coming down, she's now 90, but was 93/95 for past6 months, but she is much more active.
Head circumference to age - always been low but coming down and is now 5! I would really like to know if this is ok.
Weight to length - pretty steady, slightly down this month but she's no stop active! lol 90
I don't really pay much attention but it is interesting to see their growth. I use it as more of a record rather than anything to do with the %ages!
Gabbi loves re-arranging furniture, anything that isn't bolted to the floor gets moved, she loves pushing her pram around the garden, good job the dogs are fast movers because she's a dangerous driver, she has a thing about pulling hair, scratching and pulling on her dads hairy legs when standing up (LOL), she has started wanting to hold her spoon, she has an empty one for now, lol, she has started climbing into her rocking chair on her own, scares me when she tries to stand up, (swiftly sat back down!!!) and then sits or rocks in it laughing like she's in an arm chair. So funny. She's still the Queen of Whingeing, but she's my queen of whingeing. She's funny.
It the cutiest thing!! We do it at the water park as im scared to let him go on his own as scared he'll fall
where has the time gone?
