So my bubba has just turned 10months old and I have lots of crazy stories already!
so recently he has been learning to walk with his walker and been doing really well. At the same time he's also taken to climbing everywhere!
so far he's climb up the stairs, climbed up a trampoline ramp and regularly climbs up the back of our settee and hangs on to the radiator and bangs on it.
we also accomplished another first for the bubba he went trampolining, he mainly chased a ball round and clung on to a net and we did some joint bouncing.
he is becoming a boisterous little boy who loves cars and spends his time chasing a green scented ball round the room or pulling telephone on wheels around.
he's very shouty whether its babbling full pelt or screaming/squealing he doesn't shut up unless hes asleep!
he's still very fidgety in the night but now he's started sleep crawling or spends ages holding on to the head rest and bouncing up and down.
he's still quite violent when I cuddle him he opens his mouth says "ah" then starts thrashing his head n head butting me.
so they are some of the random and crazy things my bubba gets up to

9 months
well I've been slightly disorganised with this one! I've missed the official date for his 9 month picture but lots has been happening!
firstly I've ordered some more pictures for my goal to get a full years worth of pictures for him that I can put in an album! secondly he's become lots more mobile over the past week he's finally learnt how to crawl forwards!
it was a random Tuesday morning and id sat down on the rug with cinnamon and raisin bagels, which are our favourite bagels! and he was sat at the other end of the rug and I told him it was breakfast time and he got into the crawling position and instead of going backwards he shot forwards! I wish id have filmed it.
since that happened he's started doing lots of other new things. For example he wants to climb on everything now and is pulling himself up on the settee or footstool or toys. and he keeps trying to walk, hell climb up my legs if I'm stood up then if I take his hands he's off.
he also has his 9-12 month assessment soon which I'm not worried about as he's very clever!

first holiday!
in the most British way possible
so over the holidays we went on a caravanning holiday! two main points
1 we didn't kill each other
2 the bubba slept relatively well
so these things made it really enjoyable and we ticked some new things from our list of firsts
the first is the zoo!
it was really good the only downside was that the bubba is afraid of sheep and pigs and any animal that wasn't small lol baby guinea pigs ducks and rabbits were all winners though!
the beach!
although is was super windy and cloudy! we did at least manage to get on the front and show him the sea and sand. it will be much better when we can go and build sand castles and more importantly holes!
so it was a great holiday with lots of pictures! and the first of many!

coping with hospital visits
well at 8months (ish) we had our first official hospital visit apart from when he first popped out!
so he had a temperature of 39 that would go down with calpol but then once it wore off would shoot back up and he did some green slimy poo's (which aren't normal). so first I phoned 111 for advice (always good idea) they asked loads of questions to help and point me in the right direction. so for the next day we carried on doing this and then I arrived home Friday to find him burning up again and he'd got an appointment to see the docs who got him booked in to the hospital. from their it was a long wait in hospital where the bubba did really well with all the docs he just smiled at them and after a few examinations he started getting into position when they came round.
their was a moment where we had to catch his pee in a plastic bowl which was a piece of cake to catching his pee in a little bottle that we had to hold over his lil wiss.
while it went pretty smoothly over all it was really stressful constantly waiting for results etc the main thing is that when its all going to pot you stay strong and be positive!

captain textbook!
well at 7months the major thing to happen is you start getting teeth!
yep the first tooth came! like the legend himself no one saw where this post was going! but you can see the effects of the tooth coming through apart from being a grumpy fecker who had a mixture of bonjela and baby cocaine which is a white powder that you put on the tongue and it numbs them just like cocaine! but cheaper!
so aptly armed with bonjela and baby coke we waged a war on keeping the baby happy during this turbulent time. it didn't last long though until it came through and everything settled down again. for those babies with sensitive skin its a stressful time so double up on the creams to keep any flare ups down.

development
so here are a few things we've noticed with the bubba over the last week or so
firstly his balance when sitting down on the floor has improved massively, he doesn't fall over much at all and if he does he can stop himself with his hands. He's a lot steadier now so we've tried helping him stand up he's not quite ready for it but I don't think it will be long.
most of his talky noises have been when he's sleepy but when he's having a nice time he does smile and laugh a lot. although he has been babbling and he can say mamam when hes crying which is cute as its really clear. But today when I came in from work I went into the living room n called him n he beamed and then was really vocal saying bababa.
He recognises who people are and he knows who is family are and things like that but now when his mummy leaves the room he knows shes gone and cries.
its short and sweet the time is flying by and we can see how he's changing everyday. We have lots of things to look forward to in the coming months.

7 months
so a pre amble my missus is lovely but sometimes she comes out with funny things and lately she's been a mumzilla and I have a funny story to go with it.
so it all started recently as we are planning bubbas first birthday, which takes lots of planning as he's a baby socialite.
we are really excited for his first birthday and have booked a nice play area that does finger food and a sensory area its awesome! the problem arouse when planning and making sure all his baby friends and family could come
enter the copycat! a source of annoyance and rage because my missus hunts out play areas like a sniffer dog finds drugs this means some others in the group sit back BUT the downfall of the copycat is that their party is after ours! cue evil laugh as ours will be better and first .
not to derail from the precious memories that we have made so far but another bee in the proverbial bonnet of my mrs is a local baby group is looking for a baby to be the face, now only a slight exaggeration but harry is well known as a happy smiley baby and an example of this is I took him to the library and the woman behind the desk said she recognised him and he was really smiley last time he came. so the point of this is that he does this where ever he goes laughs and smiles except when he's tired then he grumbles. so the on to the "bee" another baby at the same class doesn't smile or do much during the session except at the key moment all the babies entering wore special t-shirts for the group and had a picture taken. a slight role reversal our bubba grumbles as hes tired and the other beams a smile and another source of annoyance is born.
an well end with a nice thing over the school hols me and the bubba went out for a walk round a local park and it went really well! he woke up happy half way round in a good mood and smiled all the way round we went to the café for breakfast and to warm up and then on the way home he slept for ages and when I go part time well do lots more!
gagging and choking! if ur baby is 6months and over chances are you've started looking at feeding him solid foods now its a scary prospect but its worth knowing that a babies gag reflex is a lot further forward to stop them from choking, this doesn't mean they cant choke.
to put your mind at ease have finger food that will dissolve in the mouth corn rings and wafers all help hand eye coordination as well as being fun!
