I'm so pleased with myself! I can now motor across the floor at a pretty good rate. If I find something that I really want to get to, like Daddy's purple t-shirt or Mum's red shoes, then I put my head down, focus on the task at hand, and pull myself over really quickly. I now get up on my knees, move one knee forwards, slide onto my tummy for a quick rest, reach forwards with my hands, yank myself forwards with my hands and toes, slide one knee up, and do it all again. It works very well, although I am getting some pretty serious carpet burn on my knees.

I didn't sleep well last night. Oskar slept at Nan and Grandad's house, so I was put in his bedroom in the portacot. I lay there calling out, 'Hello? Why am I in here? Where's Oskar? I'm not ready to sleep! La la la...Is someone coming to talk to me? I'm lonely...I need a cuddle...Waa waa waa.' I woke up lots during the night and had to wait ages for Mum and Dad to come to me when I called. I was very happy to finally have a feed at 6am. All that calling out made me hungry.
