Saturday 19th January 2013

It has been a busy week for little Freddie.

Snowy school runs, play group, fun with Grandpops, Mamma and Zachary, a trip to the weigh-in clinic, friday jingling and sledging!

Not to mention endless laps of the living room and kitchen pushing his Trolly!

Freddie weighed in at 22 pounds, 14 ounces at the clinic.
He has gone from hovering around the fiftieth centile for his weight to around the twenty-fifth. This is for his actual age, for his corrected he is around the fiftieth still.

There is no concern over his weight. Given the fact that he did not sit still for a minute at the clinic, the health visitor said it is quite normal that his activity levels mean he is not putting lots of weight on.

He has a new crawl which is on his hands and feet rather than knees. He chose to show this off at clinic. He looked like a right cheeky monkey and was making us giggle.

He hasn't taken any more steps on his own yet but every day he gets more sturdy on his feet.
He goes from the hand and feet crawling position to a standing position without any support.
One of his favourite things is to get on his hands and feet put his head down like he is going to do a forwards roll and then fall back on his bum.
He is a character.

He also has a big tooth through which explains some of the grumpiness and restless nights we had over the last couple of weeks.

At the moment he is eating very well and some of his favourite things are:
Beef stew, cauliflower cheese, jacket potatoes, scotch pancakes, chocolate digestives and milk, milk and more milk!

Here are some of the latest snaps of the little man...
