santa photo
... and what a funny photo it is! We weren't getting any smiles, so I did the mum thing... made a total fool out of myself for my kid... squatted down, wiggled my bum (shook the tailfeathers), waved my hands around (like a grandma pickles goodbye wave) and blew the biggest raspberry, which resulted in this gummy grin! Poor little man has been a bit off the air the past few days, grizzly, unhappy, not settling well, not sleeping, and when I look at this photo it reminds me of photos of brother pickles when he was teething... could we be getting teeth soon??? Each day I have a good feel around in that little mouth, but nothing that feels like teeth yet....
Oh, and in case you were wondering, no this is not a miniature santa, but an enormous baby boy!
Video of the little gherkin eating soon to be posted, so stay tuned!

He can't be... but he is.
Five months have flown by and I can feel myself clinging desperately to every moment with the gherkin, knowing that these moments are strictly limited and disappearing faster than I could ever have imagined.
I am loving being his mum, especially right now.... I feel as though we have gotten to know each other by now, and I not only love, but really like this little person who has entered our lives.
We are so thrilled the gherkin chose us as parents! We are very lucky indeed.
Chat soon xo
Oh! and yes, he loves his food! check out my flickr for more photos...
