Nearly 8 months & things are happening!!
This probably won't make sense lol but I feel like Gabe is having a major development phase, I felt like this at 6 weeks and 4 months too, it's like he just suddenly changes!
He is becoming so much more aware, he has been recognising his name since 5 months but now does it all the time, he's started crying when you leave the room or pretend to eat his finger food lol, and throwing tantrums when you take something off him that he wants like the newspaper! If you pretend to cough, he does it back at you, and when I'm holding him on my lap if he doesnt want to be held he wriggles off to get on the floor....he's finally started moving about in his walker (backwards) and trying to crawl (again backwards, well he moved about an inch lol). He's figured out he can 'bounce' around on his cot top changer by picking up his bum and banging it up and down so the whole cot shakes (scary!) So in general he's just becoming a little monster & I feel like before long he's gonna be a terrible toddler!!!
It's even making me feel a bit....broody????
Anyone else? lol xxxxx

freya has paddys when you take things away from her, she doeffinatly knows what she wants! nappy changes are a nightmare she just throws a total paddy and tries to crawl off. she is also going through a bit of a developing stage, she has been crawling and walking round the furnature for a while but no she is much steadier and can go all around the kitchen cupboards and she also hangs on to my legs and walks around behind me, which can get a bit annoying after a while. and also the last week or so she has been pointing to things and really trying to say the words, she makes the right sounds for most things and will also copy things you do like pretending to talk on the phone. it amazes me how much she has learned in just 9 months, she is so much her own little person now. x
But even I felt broody when I visited a friend with a newborn last week, must be mad !! S x
Was looking at Evie the other day wondering where my little baby has gone! She's 8 months on 3rd Jan and she's just started crawling commando style (well, she's done it a few times) and she copies if you cough and she does kisses which is so cute. But she also has a major strop if you take something from her and is a nightmare at nappy changing times, she goes all stiff and rolls over to one side all the time. She can go from laying down to sitting up now too.
It does make me feel a bit broody but know I've got to wait to have more, we've got no space for any more! Never thought I'd hear you say you were broody Tiger Lily

One day he'll just go off wriggling across the floor then the real fun starts!
Charlotte's started to clap a lot more now by copying us. I'm trying to get her to wave but it's a work in progress. She keeps trying to stand but is quite wobbly. I can't believe she will be 1 in 2 weeks time.
I do get broody again like you when these things happen, but I certainly wasn't last night when we were up for 4 hours with her (bloody teeth)!!
I get the tantrum thing too. Only in the last couple of days and always over food!! It makes me laugh though, I keep calling oh and saying "come and look at what he's doing now".
I dont get online so much now I've gone back to work. Nathan is still a really early riser and the two together are killing me, I'm sooooo knackered.
I do get on and read a lot of posts though even if I dont reply to any. Want to keep it up to hit my 1000 soon!!
