Walker

Tom reaches the 7 month mark this week and is turning into a very determined child. His legs are so strong and he just loves putting his weight on them so we got him a walker which he thinks is great. He moves himself across the room after things and people he wants to get hold of. His expressions in photos is always one of surprise -it seems impossible to catch that cheeky smile of his.

On the food front he is eating all sorts of everything although he as just begun to display his fussiness by smelling the food on the spoon and deciding then whether he will open his mouth or not. I'm also finding it hard to move towards 3 milk feeds a day - he is very vocal if he doesn't get it 4 hourly, so am going to start weening him onto the bottle.

Sleep is another issue still. Waking at 3-4 am has not stopped so perhaps with a bit of luck the formula may do the trick. Controlled crying worked to a point but I think he is going to be one of those kids who doesn't need the 12 hours.
