3 July 08

Bettina and Tim and Tracy and Lottie came over for lunch. Emily was a gracious hostess and let them play with all her things. I'd already decided that I would get rid of the Bumbo as we just don't have room for it here; Tracy tried Lottie in it, but just like Emily, her thighs were too big for it! In the end, Tim tried it and seemed happy in it so I gave it to Bettina.


Tim was putting Emily to shame. He is two and a half months younger but already rolling onto his tummy and even making good attempts to crawl. He gets his knees underneath but doesn't have the arm strength, whereas Emily has been doing pushups for a long time but can't get the hang of the legs at all.

Maybe it wasn't the chair after all. I still had trouble with food today and a few tears and refusals, even of the banana. There are so many reasons why it happens that it's hard to isolate why. I thought weaning was supposed to be fun.
