Toby has become quite a proficient crawler, and perhaps he aspires to be a mountain climber.  He crawls over big bulky things like the vacuum cleaner and wicker baskets.  Sometimes he get’s stuck and makes it well known that he needs help, but mostly he manages just fine.  He loves standing and will use anything above ground level to hang onto during his standing practice.  The vacuum cleaner is useful for this too, though the couch is even more interesting, with a laptop computer to be often found there.  What is it with kids being attracted to technology?

Meal times are very messy.  Toby drops so much food on the floor…it drops into his lap and then goes through the leg holes and onto the floor.  I try to use towels to pad the holes but the food still manages to find a way down.  The unfortunate side effect of eating more and more food is that Toby has been having problems with his poo being too hard.  Nathan suffered from hard poos for along time after starting on solids, and it does look like Toby is having similar issues, though perhaps not quite to the same extent.

Toby now has three teeth, with the fourth looking like it is not far away.

EC is still going well, though at best we are part time with it.  Almost all poos go into the toilet (poos in the nappy are very very small, as if he starts and doesn’t like doing them in his nappy and stops until I notice and put him on the potty), and we do catch quite a few wees, though it’s always easier to catch the ones after naps than others throughout the day.  We aren’t doing much at night, and the dry nappies at night are now a thing long past.
