Easter...new beginnings???

OK, as links go this one is pretty tenuous! But Mikey has finally got his 1st tooth!! He is now the grand old age of 10 months an the first one has appeared! It probably explains why he was so clingy and grotty last weekend and why we have been getting crying at really odd times for no real reason, but he is perfectly happy now!

We are still not crawling - but to be honest we don't need to! Who needs to crawl when you can roll pretty damn quick and get to wherever you want to that way!??! Yesterday poor Daddy had 2 big problems..1) keeping Mikey's sun hat on Mikey's head and 2) stopping Mikey rolling off the rug into the few plants we actually have in the garden (especially as these include nettles mixed in with one rather large shrub!) I know we need to sort the garden out to be Mikey friendly but neither of us likes/is any good at gardening and paving it isn't really an option unless I can get rubber paving slabs as those won't hurt when he falls over! (But the 'lawn' is so hard/cracked I'd imagine that will feel like falling on concrete as well!)

Lunch time today was a real battle - Mikey is not in an eating mood unless the food happens to be fromage frais! Which his main course his mouth was firmly close and he was not in the mood to eat at all... he is now covering everything in his radius in juice - not sure why to be honest but he seems to be enjoying it! And he is now eating his phone, or at least sucking the strap designed to let Mummy attach it to things so Mikey can't just fling it at the world!

Daddy has been busy this morning fixing a fly/insect screen to Mikey's bedroom window meaning we can try to reduce the temperature in there to something below sauna level which is what it's been for the last few days whatever we've tried! Mikey has spent most of the morning rolling again, and trying to collapse his mat! There are 2 arcs which cross it diagonally an fasten together in the middle - Mikey finds it totally hilarious do make them fall down... well it makes him laugh/chortle etc! Who am I to argue with whatever amuses him!
