Little monkey!

Right up until Sunday a week ago, Braeden was supremely unimpressed by playground equipment.

Now that he's gained mucho confidence walking, he's suddenly decided to become upwardly mobile. This extends to clambering over windowsills & table tops. We had to take his table & chairs out of the playroom because he was giving me heart failure.

Amazing how fast they change... Hopefully he will still feel like climbing everything/one in sight when Playcentre starts up again next term in February.

Which, by the by, is when I start Uni. I'm finally going to get a crack at that degree I had on schedule before I found out about the impending baby.

Thank goodness for modern universities who offer online study. You can pretty much guarantee I'll be doing most of mine in the wee hours ...

Btw, busy month just lately. Brae got the seasonal flu, then chicken pox, then measles. His doc grinned and said it meant he was getting plenty of exposure to other kids, and that all (normally healthy) under-fives need this to built their army of antibodies.

The most obvious of Braeden's antibodies is his aversion to some male bodies ;-) You never know when Mr Shy Guy is going to surface, and oh BOY can he suddenly become velcro-kid at top volume!

Photos ARE coming.. I just have to get my A into G.

Hi Karlene:
My name is Elaine and I met your mom on the net several years ago. She was always sending me pictures and updates regarding your aviary not to mention your pregnancy. I haven't received any emails from your mom in a long time and I noticed in your blog that she was in the hospital in August. Is she ok?

It's been two weeks... is the A still not in G? Where are those damned pictures??? I'm afraid that at the rate Braedon grows I'll miss a whole foot if you don't post pics often enough! Guess maybe you should make him a fancy gym and give him his own section out in the aviaries. LOL!

Then Cranniepants can eat her heart out looking at YOUR chick by Wayne. Don't it make your bare eyes green? Hee hee.

Hi Elaine

(Hmmm.. blogger no longer sends emails telling me there are comments.. must look in to that!)

Mum's hanging in there; do you still have her email address? I'll email it to you :-)

MB: Yeah get off my case already ;-) Seriously though, you're absolutely right and I must must must get on to that! Speaking of growing, he's now a knee biter not an ankle biter. Felt a nagging pain in my knee tonight, and looked down to see him seriously munching my kneecap. Seems he was trying to simultaneously break in a new molar and get my attention at the same time.. yeah you could say he succeeded in the latter ;-)
