A Mouthful of Chompers

Jude has now got 4 teeth to brush!!!

As you can see from the photo, he thinks that the toothpaste should be milk flavoured and not pepperminty. I think he looks a bit like a dehydrated Mongie. But don't his jimmy jams look so very very cute?

Jude saw the Ocean for the first time in the weekend. We took him up to Orewa on Saturday morning and to our surprise he cried. We don't think he liked the sound of the waves crashing (not that there was much surf). But he didn't like it. We'll just have to take him back another time when the tide is not so high and try again.

Jude has got his 9 month Plunket check tomorrow so we will see how much weight he has put on and how tall he is going to be (I estimate a veritable giant at 5.10"). But seriously, it will be interesting to see if he has put on any weight at all due to the amount of crawling and other activity he has been up to lately - he must pretty much burn off everything that is going in to him at the moment. He only ever stops moving to sleep.

And lastly, a big shout-out to Uncle Jez and Aunty Debs in the UK - we got Jude's wee package in the post on Saturday and I just had to have a quick peek before wrapping it back up and putting it away for his Christmas stocking. VERY VERY cool. I can't wait to see him in his very own mini Welsh rugby jersey. I wonder how many people will ask me if Jude's name is actually "Brains"?
