Has it really been three months?

Wow. Time flies. Let's see...

Johnny appears to be dropping his nap. It sometimes takes him half an hour to fall asleep at school, and at home he sometimes drops off on the boob, then wakes up furious when I pull him off and won't go back to sleep. For a few weeks I've been able to get him to fall asleep in the stroller, but no more of that... I'm distraught. I still need my naptime!

Some firsts...
- Yesterday he was drawing letters. Deliberately. Z, F, G, J. Correctly formed. Precocious twerp.
- Last night he slept in his big boy bed in his own room, at least until 5:30am when I took him in with me. He woke up at 11pm for a nappy change, then 2am and 5am for milk. When he woke again at 5:30am I decided the cluster feeding had started and we were doing it in my bed. He slept until 8:30 instead. Glorious. (Well, he'd gone off at 10pm the night before thanks to a v. late nap and some nasty candy/cooldrink at the neighbour's.)
- Friday night he was happy with a cup of warm milk instead of a boob when he woke up at 11pm. Hurray! Let the night weaning commence!
- He hit his first piñata yesterday at Andreas's birthday party at the neighbours. Big success. He also had a blast on the trampoline.
- Last week he blocked his first toilet. His new shoes were so exciting he forgot he needed to poo and made a huge ball of it in his undies. Must remember to put him on the toilet ASAP when we get home and it's been a few days since he's made a poo.
- Last week he made his first consumer decision. (Well, since the screaming-in-the-Walmart-parking lot "I WANT TO GO TO TRADER JOE'S" incident.) At Trader Joe's sample hutch he pointed to a display box and said "Mashed potato." Then he sampled the mashed potato and then after polishing it off, picked up a box, said "we need this" and put it into the cart. At least it was mashed potato and not candy. (Actually he doesn't like most candy -- hurray!)

Well, I'm off to plant things while the boys play at the library.
