The weather has been horrible here, and finally today it has cooled down! It just started pouring outside, and I could hear the thunder in the distance a little while ago.
This week has been a bit busy. Monday my boy had his four month check-up with the paed. All went very well, and in terms of growth he has now caught up with his age group :) He is also on the tall side, and apparently has a big head... On Tuesday I had to take him for some more vaccinations. The poor boy screamed, and was not happy with mom at all! So now the measles at around 6 months is the next stop.
Just a week before our big trip! I need to head to the shops for a few small items still, and early next week will do all the packing. Although I am very excited about the trip, it has come a bit sooner than I would have liked. I know that my two weeks away is going to go by so fast, and when I return home I only have about 4 weeks left at home before returning to work. I could never have imagined how this feels! Even though I am looking forward to working again, having some other stimulation it is going to be so hard leaving my boy behind. After spending 6 months with him 24/7, it is going to be a bit odd not having him with me. But, let me now dwell on those thoughts too much now....
The rain has put a bit of a damper on my plans for today. Was considering a quick walk to a shopping centre just down the road, but that is out of the question now. But if it lets down a little I may rush down to the car and take a drive...
On the diabetes front things are going as always. I am still having a few more highs than I would like. I will only be seeing my Endo after my holiday. Hope that with these highs (and a holiday which will probably add to it!) my A1c has not gone up by too much!
More on my boy: We will be starting solids just after he turns 5 months. I have no clue how it all works! Have a book I will take a read through - will probably have some time during my flights. Yet another milestone - it is going way way too fast...

You have some exciting times coming up!! :)
Solids is a lot of fun. Far more fun than milk. Our little poppet just had her first cupcake yesterday (at the grand old age of 5.5/7 months - corrected/uncorrected). LOVED it. Also loves beef casserole. It really is the transition between baby and little 'person' if that makes sense - seeing what their preferences are.
Diabetes schiabetes - argh. Do you find hot weather sends your sugars up? I do. Thought that might impact on you too esp with your destination?
Have a lovely w/end.
