Jolly Jumping

Yesterday, I put Reuben in the Jolly Jumper. HE LOVED IT! Apart from the massive drool factor, which seems to increase proportionally with each bounce, it was a huge success. As usual, Reuben overdid it and started to bellow after about 15 mins and had to be thrown straight into bed. Another positive of the JJ, was that Reuben slept all through the night!- Nothing like a bit of exercise to tire out a growing boy.

Strong man

Lateley Reuben has started to sit up a lot. He loves to stand as well, as his legs are really strong. He likes to stretch his arms out at his side and make funny muscle boy faces whilst kicking his legs as if to say "Look at me mum, I'm so strong!".

When Ashleigh was at the computer, it was just too temping to try him sitting on her shoulders!

Fish

Every morning after Reuben wakes up and gives a hoy, I turn on the light and call out hello. He is always grinning- but not at me. Reuben loves his fish stickers which are on the wall all around his bed.
