Moving along

I just put Henry down for his afternoon nap, I'm afraid I am getting into a bad habit. I realized the other day that he can hold his own bottle, so I can put him in his cot with his bottle and off to sleep he goes once botbot is finished. I am a little worried that he will become relient on his botbot to get to sleep.

I had planned to get pregnant this month so we could have a September baby. I want to have the kids close in age so this makes for an 18 month age gap. I talked to Damon about it the other night and he wasnt sure that we should start trying just yet, I don't think he thinks he has spent enough time with Henry let along add another child to that. I did remind him that it would be nine months before the next one would be born. He asked did I think we could handle another one, I had to laugh at that.
I introduced the bottle at 6 & half months and he has been slowly weened since then. He has been only breast feeding once a day for the last month and is not really interested anymore. I would have stuck with breast feeding only but I have been planning to get pregnant in December so felt that I needed to wean him in order to get my period back although its not back yet. Not sure what to do about that.

Yesterday we got Henry's first tractor with farm points earned from buying chemical. He is a bit little for it just yet but he will grow into it. Dad loves pushing him around on it. He still comando crawls but he is pulling himself up on the furniture much faster now.

Chevy goes in for his operation tomorrow, they are going to remove 1.5cm of the bone that is not growing, then the bone should grow back longer to replace the removed bone. So hopefully all will be ok after this.
