If you have been following my status updates on Facebook you will already know the big news on the Magnus front - he cut two teeth last Saturday!! He is a month ahead of his bros and two months ahead of average. We got zero sleep on the Thu and Fri, it was so bad that I didn't run on Sat morning. Then Iain was bathing M and shouted through "Magnus has got two teeth!!" He saw them cos M always screams his head off when Iain is changing his clothes. The other excitement in M's life is he has started on solids. He has had baby rice and pureed apple, carrot, pear, and papaya and likes them all so far. The baby rice has come from a packet but I have made the rest myself which I'm pleased about. I wasted hundreds of pounds on babyfood jars with the other two boys so I thought I would try to do my own this time what with the credit crunch... One of the photos is the scene when I'm on the laptop. Thought you might like to see the chaos!
Magnus is a really contented baby now and is back to sleeping through (hurrah!) This is probably due to the fact I've stopped breastfeeding and started him on formula. It had reached the stage where he was feeding for an hour at 4am every morning and we were all getting v tired and stressed so we thought is was time to change. Magnus is really happy so I don't feel too guilty.

Wow. He's moving fast. That's a great photo of the three boys. Love your lego t-shirt by the way.
Thanks! I love that T-shirt; it is a Paul Frank Lego T shirt - build your own Julius! The boys keep asking me to build Julius but we don't have enough peachy coloured bricks.
How is Nikki's pregnancy going? She'll be almost reaching the begging to be induced stage! (Maybe a couple more weeks til then ;-) ) You haven't blogged much lately. Better get your blogging in before you're too tired to do it!
Nikki's going great. Today's her baby shower, so I'm going to have a lovely afternoon of geeking out with Battlestar Galactica and/or GTA IV. Blogging has taken a bit of a back seat recently, you're right. I'm not promising but, including today's there may be as many as two new entries this week.
we discovered there is wi-fi at the hospital and we'll be taking the laptop with us, so Ian will be blogging from there. I better remember to take some make-up with me so I can look half-decent in the photos.
Did you enjoy your baby shower? Are you holding up tiny clothes and imagining a baby in them? I did that for about twenty weeks!!!!!! Every night I went in to the room and looked at them! What a sop :-)
Magnus is asleep upstairs in his cot for the first time as he has outgrown the moses basket. They don't stay wee babies for long... I want another one now!
PS I don't know what to say about the wifi/makeup comments!!
I do keep looking at the nappies and thinking "oh my god, how small!!!"
