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...

The last post of 2012.
Dear Freddie,
May I begin by requesting that you bring in the new year with a better nights sleep than last night.
Start as you mean to go on please little man.
Mummy and Daddy do not like 4am starts.
What a year it has been.
Though we won't ever forget your dramatic start to life it is going to feel good to have a full year behind us since those difficult times.
You have changed so much this year.
Your personality is so strong, we can't imagine a time when you did not rule this house.
It has been a busy year full of exciting times.
You have paddled in the sea, built sandcastles, celebrated a wedding, learned how to play with your brother, wrestle with your dad and fight over your Grandpops.
Your birthday and naming ceremony was the highlight of the year for me.
A beautiful day celebrated with those who love you.
You have seen your brother off to big school and enjoyed your daily school run buggy trips.
You have exhausted me with your tantrums and then instantly melted my heart with your beautiful toothy smile.
Happy New Year sweetheart
Love you
Mummy

Today Freddie took his first steps!
We went for a family meal and he decided then and there to show off and take a couple of unaided steps.
I never imagined that we would be at a pub/restaurant when he decided to reach such a significant mile stone.
Well done Freddie.
A lovely Christmas surprise.

It has been a while since my last post.
This has something to do with the fact that Freddie is such a busy little boy at the moment.
He certainly keeps us on our toes.
He has been a star recently at some of the Christmas events that aren't always baby friendly.
He slept through most of Samuel's nativity.
He was a happy chappy all the way round Asda yesterday whilst mum and I got the Christmas food shopping done.
He was rather noisy at a family meal we had at Lakeside on Saturday because I think his teeth were bothering him but nonetheless the meal was a success.
Tooth number six has recently poked its way through and it looks to me like a couple more will follow shortly.
Teething is not pleasant and the little man has been suffering a bit.
Calpol and cuddles solve all!
The photos below sum the little dude up...
A Cheeky monkey!
He rules the house, bossing everyone around. Demanding that polar express be put on most of the time!
Samuel is so good with him. He entertains him and let's him use his head as a drum in the bath!
We are all very excited for Christmas.
I am starting to wonder what Freddie will think once all of the Christmas celebrations are over.
I get the feeling he thinks all of the bright lights, decorations and parties are the norm!
We may have to have the tree up all year he loves it that much!
Hope you have all been good for Santa!
