Week 27 ( 23rd Feb - 1st Mar)

Aydin discovered a new toy sitting there on mamas nose. :) he was smiling so much I don't know if he was just happy with mama without glasses or just happy to play with this new object. 

Aydin had a bad night or three and then what did I feel on the bottom gums??? A tiny bit of a tooth popping through and the next day? The other tooth next to it. :)

Glad that solves the mystery of your rough night.:) 

Pictures to follow once they are more visible. :)

Enjoying hus greens (for now)

A few blueberries

And his toes

A serious conversation going on it seems

I completed and installed (asked Hal to install) Aydins cloud and stars mobile :)

Aydin has recently become so much more interested in objects and it's wonderful to look at. That look of amasement is, well, Amazing!!

look at that little face he is pulling. we hardly ever get photos together. :(

Very silly excited face

Week 26 (16th Feb - 22nd Feb)

Mr handsome turned 6 months!!! Half a year my little love, you have taught me so much! 

You are loved so much it's ridiculous!

This week you are going bonkers about rolling. I turn my head and you have rolled. Unfortunately you can only turn on to your tummy and not back so once you get fed up on your tummy you make yourself known so I flip you over.

You are still enjoy your food even though you developed a rash twice this week. Once after a bit of formula and once after yoghurt. Dairy allergy perhaps? For now we will avoid it and see if you out grow it.

Second swimming lesson went well and that was the first one just with me no daddy.

Week 25 (9th Feb - 15th Feb)

This week has been a lot of fun, experimenting with food. Aydin seems to be happy with any food he is given and rather greedy always wanting more.

We have tried:

Fruit - mango, apple, pear, peach and banana, tangerine 

Veg - carrot, sweet potato, courgette, parsnip, broccoli, peas, sweetcorn, beetroot

There is lots still to try and I hope his optimism continues. 

He discovered his feet which is very sweet watching him grab them and do all sorts of acrobatics with them. 

He also got his first Valentine's Day admirer and with it his first ballon. It really is a week of firsts with Sunday being his first swimming lesson aswell.

Week 24 (2nd Feb - 8th Feb)

Started this week feeling very rough with an awful head ache and blocked aching sinus. Aydin had his worst night ever at the end if last week which coincided with my roughest night bad combination. I do hope we have better nights this week.

On Monday I met some other mums in a coffee get together I arranged locally. It was a success and we have decided I make it a regular thing which is lovely. Met so many friendly mums that understand perfectly how I am currently feeling. Also spoke to my doctor who recommended CBT and booked an appointment with Simon for a session. Can't wait to see him I have a lot of faith in him.

On Wednesday I caught a horrible stomach bug that had me unable to stomach anything for 2 days and feeling like I had been beaten up.

Nonetheless I saw Simon while my mum spent an hour with Aydin. He behave really well much to my relief, I was sure he would spend the whole hour screaming at least that was my biggest fear. By Friday I was at least feeling like my old self again and could take care of Aydin properly.

Unfortunately on Sunday morning Halil woke up with the bug himself. I hope he gets over it soon too.
