So you know Caleb fell off the bed. That was last Friday.
Yesterday I got a call from Hot Mummee, telling me that Caleb's fallen again. This time it was because the bouncy hammock spring snapped. Snapped! Can you believe it?
Luckily this happened with Grandma around. Being a manual bouncer, I ...

So he's coming up to 6 months old already. He can prop himself up temporarily and hold his head up, looking for whatever caught his eye earlier, or looking for something to look at.
He's only been able to roll from his back to his front.
Or so we thought.
Last Friday night, ...

Kick...

Thumping limbs on the bed...
Time for some more photos to share!
Okay, truth is I am having a writer's block!
Yup, those are drool patches, and sorry I missed cropping out my foot from the photo!

You all know how I looooooove feeding Caleb when it's my turn, during the night / wee hours of the morning; and how I looooooove exacting revenge on his bullying antics to his Daddee!
And you all know how I am resisting comparing my two kids and their respective "achievements".
But...

(a.k.a. Chuck-a-brown-eye practise!)
HIAKKKkks!
I know how to roll from being on my back, to being on my front! But DARN IT, my arm gets stuck under my tummy and I cannot get it out!
I look up to see what's around, but DARN IT my neck muscles are still not strong enough! ...

She props herself up on her elbows, on the bed, peering over the mini-mountains of pillows. In this light I can just make out the outline of her japanese doll haircut, and her eyebrows. She is looking at me.

Caleb the Daddee-bully, takes forever drinking his milk. He'd start off all keen; naturally cos he's hungry, then at about 3oz left (we give him 6oz at the moment), he'd start showing less interest and start being distracted.
By distracted, for a 4 month old kid, is: Stop sucking, looking around, ...

It shouldn't be, given that Caleb is our second child...
But this Daddee seem to only have started knowing how to read the little human's signs. And for the life of me, I can't seem to recall those of Caitlin's when she was his age.

I wanna post something, but I don't seem to have anything on my mind to share at the moment....
So, here's an image, or two, to share, instead.
Taken only just now. The room was dimly lit, naturally. Set the camera to very slow shutter speed; 10 sec shutter speed in fact. ...

Taking the cue from the comment on checking my own old photos and comparing them to my kids now, I thought I'd do this comparison!
I was actually naked in that picture! No, not shy, just that its easier doing a mugshot comparison this way.
When looking at the photos, I couldn't ...

A prequel episode:
Visit to the Doctor!
As with all newborns, Caitlin's first few visits to Dr Pixie's weren't exactly pleasant for her. But the one visit that really stood out in my memory, was the time when her cold / nasal congestion was so bad that she needed suction performed up ...
