In at five this week...

Holding hands with other babies. Aw! (However, trying to take out the eyes of other babies - that's not so cute).

At four...

Feety battles with cousin Isla on her playmat (she won, and then stole his bunny and rolled off. The shame of it!).

No movement at three...

Trying to crawl. Not managing, obviously. But what a good effort that boy has been putting in. He can't help it if his fat wee tummy is stuck to the ground...

This week's number two...

Chatty baby. Think "Charley says" and you'll have a good idea of his current range of yelps, "whee"s and "woo"s. Also "ma ma ma" and, occasionally, "da". He knows how to butter up his doting parents.

And straight in at number one, yes, you guessed it...

Foot in mouth syndrome - something he may have inherited. (I'm not saying from whom...)
