I'm a big boy...

I've probably joined the 12lb crew by now as earlier this week I was 11lb 12oz's... what a whopper! Still smaller than my girlfriend, who has made the transition to baby rice (today in fact) congratulations gorgeous!

I've been mostly eating grown up stuff... porridge, rice, banana, butternut squash (my fave), salmon, smoked haddock, pear, cauliflower, sweet potato, broccoli; these are all the things I like which sometimes means that I need a bath after because I've yummed it all over me! Mummy's tried to push lentils down me and some stewed apple, oh and some bio live organic natural yogurt... she made me say it like that as it's the full fat yummy one that as I don't like it Mummy'll have to eat it and Daddy will tell her that every mouthful will go straight to her big bot!

In fact I'm getting on so well with eating that I'm having 3 meals a day and a milk before bedtime. Breakfast at 8am, lunch at 1pm and dinner at 6pm with my bedtime special milk at about 11pm with sleeps and dreams until a bit before breakfast when I have to talk to myself for a bit.

When I have my 3 meals I sit in my high chair... Isn't it wonderful?! My friend Georgie's Mummy and Daddy gave it to me. It's an all singing and all dancing height adjustable, back rest recliner, strap me in take it anywhere type. I'm very grateful for their kind gift because I know we'll just get along fine and dandy. Mummy likes it too, she says that it frees up her other hand to stop my hands from going in my mouth when I've got food it in - whatever does she mean!

Daddy's fishing this weekend. Mummy's at home with me being my sole entertainment - which is............ OK! He's caught 2 brown trout (no, one isn't Mummy!). I don't think that his were the biggest, but we all know that size doesn't matter............ I'm small. Daddy's missing The Kylie Show, he likes Kylie... I think she'd think I'm cuter than him though!

I was measured on Tuesday afternoon, I'm 54.5cm's long. I also had some blood taken from my right hand - ouch... I though that all of the poking about with needles had finished... it really hurt so I cried a lot and went all hot. A sleep in the car helped me recover though and I was fine and dandy when I got home.

On Thursday I saw Harriet and her Mummy. Gene and his Mummy were supposed to meet us for lunch but Sam is a bit poorly and she didn't want to pass it on to any of us, so she stayed in and kept Gene with her. We're meeting up on the 16th though so we can all chat.

On Friday I went for a lovely walk with Mummy, Ellie and her Mummy Nicky and Little Harriet and her Mummy Clarissa. Yes, you've spotted it, there's another wee Harriet in our midst, Little Harriet's tiny though, she's only 3 weeks old... but still weighs in at over 8lbs!

Bunny's still poorly so Mummy's very sad. Let's all wish him a speedy recovery... he's got more medication than me!

I can't keep my eyes open like this for long...

    What a lot of activity going on in your life at the moment. All these friends of yours and the walkies and so much new food. No wonder you can't keep your eyes open after so much excitement. Sorry to hear that the blood taking was a bit of a pain. I call those people that do those sort of things to you a bit of a vampire. I have a nasty cold at the moment so will have to wait until it decides to go before I can come and see again.

    Love Janice

  2. Hi Oscar,

    Looking forward to seeing you again this week. I'm going to wear something extra special - if I can get anything to fit! I've joined the ranks of the teenagers now - I'm a massive 13lb 6oz! Catch me if you can.

    love

    Harriet xx

  3. Hi Darling. What wonderful pictures on your blog, big wide eyes and then fast asleep, not surprising you are a busy boy. Glad to hear daddy was able to catch a fish on his weekend away, he must have had a good time, well done daddy. I miss you loads since being back in France, so when I see you next we will have to have plenty of kisses and cuddles. Love you always.xxxxxxx
