10 (& three quarter) months

Brrrrrrr, winter is definitely here. He's been taking a couple of shuffles while standing up. Xander has been enjoying a bevy of foods such as oats, mandarins (how hard is it to peel the skin off the teeny segments!), arrowroot biscuits, sultanas, cottage cheese... etc oh, and he likes olives. Who knows how long this liking of food will last, as yes, I too have heard the horror stories of food on the ceiling... Speaking of horror stories to cut a long stoy short, the previous owners of our house did bodgy work on the copper pipes when they moved the hot water system outdoors, so half of our beautiful new kitchen was flooded last week & we still have industrial fans drying it out. Thank god for insurance!
