Hmmm....I have the energy of a racehorse.....the patience of a saint, NoM.....but I think I'll save both for something a bit older....thank you anyway....x
Clarion, his paternal grandparents can't get enough of him. Oddly enough he's an absolute angel whenever he's in their company. In fairness he's very little trouble to us, but these last few days ...
I only asked because you said he was sucking his mitts NoM. If he cannot yet swallow instinctively he is not ready, but if he is putting his fist in his mouth he may now be able to. It happens almost overnight at that age. Haha wait till he is eating solids. Be ready to realise that parents potty train kids, not for the kiddies benefit but for their own! You will not enjoy that stage. Most parents lose weight because they cannot bear to eat. :))
You may have a point there, Togo. Until recently it required real effort to get him to swallow his Calprol but tonight it just seemed to disappear when I squirted it into his mouth. Ergo, he might be ready to swallow solids. I'll try him tomorrow and let y'all know.
You've hardly started yet - the best is to come! Many years ago my daughter was playing up in the checkout queue. I complained about her behaviour and the woman behind me said " my son's six, just wait!" Someone else said her daughter was 12 and that was the worst and so it continued until an elderly lady in the next queue trumped us all " my daughter's 55 and it doesn't get any easier" good luck!
