1st tooth, & crawling

Hey Mr Mitchie Moooo,
Our little boy has grown up soo much!
We've been so busy the few months - so many new things that you've been up to.

Here are some of them (in no particular order!)
You went to your first Bathurst 1000 - you must be your fathers son as you slept as the top ten shoot out drove past!! You also stayed with Julie for a day while dad & I went the next day.

Been to your first bonfire night :o)
Started on solids - now having 3 meals + bottles a day!! wow! my goodness :o)
You have another cousin - Stephanie :o)
Met Emma & Lee (finally!)
You went to your brother & dads birthday party.

Enjoying having your brother Greg - for hugs, chats and tumbles. Only tonight you guys had a rumble after the bath and I am starting to think you have the upper hand! lol! silly Greggie! Your cuddles are lovely - and if Greg hurts you he comes and says sorry by patting you on the head. He will bring toys to you - and more often than not will take them from you!!

The biggest bits of news is that
- You got your first tooth today!!! It wasnt there at 4 this morning when you woke up all upset, but when you woke later, there it was!! yayay!!

-You have also started crawling! You use those little feet and legs and push with all your might, it takes some effort but boy you are getting there. It wont be long before we can't catch you!

- In the process of mastering the skill of sitting up. You seem to manage this for a maybe a minute and the usually gracefully put your head on the floor and bring your legs around behind you! Mr FLEXIBILITY!

- You also enjoy the jolly jumper and have started standing holding things - you aren't pulling yourself up yet but you can hold and stand. If you are standing holding my hands you take lots of steps. I sat you on the lounge on the weekend while i was on the floor looking at you and you decided to roll onto your tummy and wiggle off the lounge onto your feet and stand there holding the lounge and staring at me as if to say "is that what you wanted me to do? huh?"

Mitchie mooo you are growing up soooooo fast. It's great to see your personality growing as you turn into a real little boy. I know that your dad has enjoyed being around you a lot while he has had some well deserved time out from working. You show off and grin and giggle and even babble lots. We're in the process of teaching you to say mum (seeing as Gregory HARDLY ever says it.... although says dad millions of times a day!).
Love you lots my not-so-toothless-terror!!
Mummy
