2005 November

I am now 10 months old.

I have started standing by myself. I also sometimes manage to climb onto things like chairs, the problem is getting off.

I love water and spend lots of time in, on, at the fountains. Dad is going to spoil my fun by making them baby-safe, bummer.

We went to St Francis for uncle Clive Shamley's 60th birthday. Everyone had a great time and sore heads the next morning.

Mom has been busy finishing off work on some contracts to Dad and I have been spending the last few weekends together. I have helped him around the house quite a bit!

I can now climb up and down from chairs and sofas! I also took a few steps on my own but haven't done it again.

Mom stopped feeding me in the night and dad had the pleasure of soothing me back to sleep when I wanted some milk. Well it paid off, I now sleep from 8:30pm to 6am, dad is relieved. Mom has also started weaning me off the breast, I now only have an after supper drink. By middle December I will be breast free!

We went to the Wilderness National Park for a break. We pitched our tent right next to the river. Mom and dad had a great time just relaxing. Dad tried to catch a fish, but there were no bites.

I have 6 teeth now, 4 on top and 2 on the bottom. I have great fun every morning brushing my teeth with dad.

I now walk by myself. I am still very bad at it and fall a lot, but I am improving every day.
