As well as learning to say 'Doctor Who' Bethan has also:
[x] been weighed and is 12lb 13oz - that's a lb in a fornight
[x] has two front teeth hiding out just under the gums - the Health Visitor thinks they'll be out in the next couple of weeks.
[x] took her swimming on Sunday with two of the ladies from my antenatal class. Much LOL was had by all. Bethan liked it. (Well she didn't cry)
[x] she also had a go at stroking Bilbo - there was now clawing so it all ended well hoorah!
[x] she's drinking a lot less now - she's dropped from 900-980ml to about 760ml. The Health Visitor says that it's not a massibe problem because the girl is still putting on weight and has suggested that we start giving her a teaspoon of food at tea time because it looks like she's getting ready to wean herself. I eat and I've got her and the cat's eyes following the fork from plate to mouth. It's disconcerting.
[x] she was doing some heated tummy time over the weekend and actually rolled over from her front onto her back. I thought it was a fluke but she did it another four times. She's not done it since though.

The baby formerly known as Cheddar and I had just finished watching The One Show (She loves Adrian Chiles (and who doesn't?)) and a trailer came on for Doctor Who.

I swear to God that at the end of it she went "doctor who". She's 21 weeks old.

OK, she may have gone "ooh, ooh ooh" but it really would be too much of a co-incidence.

Today the Baby Formerly known as Cheddar had her second piece of post that wasn't appointments for injections. Her Aunty [livejournal.com profile] morbid_sparks had sent her a pile of ace little crocheted animals.



How cool are they???! Very, I think you'll find the answer is.

Sparks also sent a card which said that Mummy (aka me) will be able to do the animal noises. But what sort of noises does an octopus make? Or a Ladybird? It's going to make Old McDonald's Farm interesting to say the least. (Currently ex-Cheddar has some IKEA fingerpuppet animals for use in said song. One of them is a shark, he goes Dum DUM, dum DUM, &c &c)

Thank you so much for these. The Baby Formerly known as Cheddar has picked out the piggy to play with tonight. His little trotters are just the perfect size for her to grab.



In related baby!news, she's now 11lb!! Go her!

So first I had a massive box of knitted awesomeness from [livejournal.com profile] kharma2815, then a handmade dragon from [livejournal.com profile] doylefan22 (all for the Baby Formerly Known as Cheddar, not me)


[livejournal.com profile] nacbrie knitted, with her own hands and everything, this lovely little TARDIS vest. The TARDIS even has a little doorknob. It's brilliantly cute. Sadly it's a tiny bit big on the Baby Formerly Known as Cheddar at the moment, but give her another week or two and she'll fit it fine and more photos will be forthcoming.


[livejournal.com profile] nacbrie also sent said baby her first Dalek. Just look at it! It's rather ace! It's currently in the living room on the bookcase with Gary/Darren the Dragon so that whenever people come round I can go "Look what my friends made for [the Baby Formerly Known as Cheddar]!" (Then they get shown [livejournal.com profile] kharm2815's knitted stuff of awesome too)

So far, everyone who has seen it, thinks that it's quite brilliant. So well done [livejournal.com profile] nacbrie and thank you so, so much!


Also arriving in the post yesterday was a package of yay-ness from [livejournal.com profile] dune_drd which consisted of an activity flower for Bethan (which is in her Moses basket), some crafty stuff for me and this brilliant, limited edition FIMO Ood to go with the FIMO Adipose she made me last year.

I luffs him!

Bethan, His Lordship and myself would like to give you a big thank you (and massive hugs when I next see you) for the parcel of joy that arrived today. It was really very, very generous of you and you shouldn't have spent so much on her.

(It had, not one, not two but three hand knitted baby blankets, little bootees, little gloves (which are the cutest thing ever), a cute little hat (which is a tiny bit big on Bethan, but should fit her by Christmas), a pile of sleeveless vests (you can NEVER have enough), a fleecy romper suit, this gift set from Mothercare (which I'm really pleased about as we have it in tiny baby size for Bethan already but she's nearly grown out of it and I love the vest, trousers and babygrow so much!) and two teddies.)

Thank you!!

Meet Cheddar, who has now been rebranded as Bethan, and is a very special outside baby! There's a few photo's behind the cut. A full account of my adventures with the NHS is currently being typed up (I'm doing it in between feeds, it's taking a while) and will be posted on the baby-filter in the next day or so. If you're not on that filter and you want to be, let me know.

beware, here be cute! )
