How times have changed!

How times have changed! The other night on my way to the kitchen, I saw a huntsman! Once upon a time, not that long ago, it would have been sprayed with fly spray until it was all foam. But now that my little boy has a bug catcher, my first thought was, do I have the courage to catch it?! It was all up to me as everyone else was in bed! Anyway, I was very brave and this is the result Lachie found the next morning.


Ryan turned 6 months old last Thursday! He is growing so quickly. He's still an absolute delight and smiles pretty much most of the day. He has just started shuffling backwards and trying to get up on his knees, so I don't think it will be much longer before he's on the move - oh dear! Sprouting some cute fluffy hair now too. Still not a huge fan of food but we'll get there eventually I'm sure.

Lachie continues to be a gorgeous, fascinating and delightful little boy. His vocabulary has improved even more recently and his latest 'thing' is reading all 36 Mr Men characters from memory on the back of one of his Mr Men books. Baz & I are really quite over reading about Mr Nonsence these days though! Toilet training has been put on the back burner for the moment - he just didn't seem too phased about not using the potty / toilet even though he knew when he should etc. So in a few months we'll bite the bullet again.

Lachie still loves his little brother and now Ryan follows Lachie around the room with his eyes and lights up with a big gummy smile when his bigger brother comes near him. It's really lovely to watch. This morning I captured the following video which pretty much sums it up between the 2. Lachie was stroking Ryan's head absentmindedly while watching a cartoon.




Also, this one shows Ryan starting to try and move around...
