Nearly 1 !!
After visiting the family over Christmas, we spent a week in Devon over New Year with a group of friends, which was fun. With two other babies, a toddler and a pair of eight year old twins in the house, Sam was not short of people to play with, and thoroughly enjoyed himself! Unfortunately the weather wasn't too great, but we did get a few walks in (using our backpack for the first time) and visited a local zoo.
Sam is just cutting his eye teeth it seems, although they aren't completely through yet. He's dribbling lots, but he isn't complaining too much (famous last words!). He's still not crawling, but has decided that it's easier to get about by shuffling around on his bum, which is hilarious to watch (especially on our wooden floors at home!). He can definitely shift when he wants too - the other day we turned our backs for just a few seconds and he was across the floor, had both his hands in a plant pot, and was eating the compost! Ah well, it's extra fibre in his diet I suppose!
