Gnashers

Sorry for the lack of blogging recently. I'm on holiday now, so I can catch up a bit.

No sign of any teeth yet but Charlie's hand is never far from his mouth. He's discovered a new sound which is a high pitched screeching noise. Sometimes he makes it continuously for 30 minutes.


We tried him in a door bouncer last week. At the moment, he doesn't do much bouncing, but he did take the opportunity to try to wander off while on his feet (probably trying to get away from the stupid noises I was making).



This week he has started on solid food - baby rice, pears and carrots. As expected, he loves his food and can polish off a bowl of baby rice in a couple of minutes without spilling anything. He doesn't quite understand the concept of a spoon yet; He expects a continuous flow, like breastfeeding, so he whinges impatiently in between spoonfuls.



On Monday we went swimming (my first time with C.) with about 30 other babies. One mum swam off with Charlie's swimming seat (he wasn't in it at the time).
Today we took him ten pin bowling, where he enjoyed all the bright lights and loud noises. It was funny to think that he is now heavier than any of the bowling balls! Tomorrow we hope to go to the Sea Life Centre to see what Charlie makes of it.

Latest weight tomorrow - by which time he will probably be the weight of 2 bowling balls.
