The King of Swing

Hi

All is well in our household, our little man is finally sleeping through. Hooray. We can finally stop shuffling around like zombies. Dropping his night time bottle was pretty easy, we just offered water instead of milk and two nights later he didn't bother disturbing us and just kept sleeping.

Kai is also eating more and more these days. We bought a baby meal planner and recipe book by Annabel Karmel. Our friend, Theresa, recommended it to us and it has been fantastic. We have given Kai so many interesting foods that I would never have thought of. We have tried pureed apples and cinnamon, peaches, raspberries, strawberries, avocado, cauliflower with cheese sauce, spaghetti bolognese and salmon. We have added different herbs for flavour like fresh basil or parsley. It's as much a pleasure watching him enjoy his food as it is eating his leftovers.

As well as sleeping through, Kai is almost crawling. He can get up on all fours and rock back and forth and shuffle forward about 1/2 a metre before he gets frustrated and rolls over. He is such a determined baby, he won't give up until he gets what he wants.

Evan's Mum and Scott came up a few weekends ago and brought along a lovely present for Kai. It was great to have had them stay over and spend some time with Kai, as we all know how fast little babies become little boys.


Sincerely,
Kelly.

I am so glad you got the Annabel Karmel book. I have just purchased another of her books on ebay for toddlers. Kai looks like he loves his swing. Hope you are all well. I am working on a email to send you Kelly. Enjoy your night!
