   Cute idea!
 
1. baby's age  4 months
2. their cutest quirk  singing in the shower
3. any allergies/illness  he only has one functioning kidney
4. sleeping habits  Down at around 8pm after a solid hour of feeding and either sleeps through to around 6am or some nights wakes at around 2-3am.  Sleeps most of the morning during the day then a couple of shorter naps in the afternoon.
5. feeding habits  Roughly 3 hourly feeding during the day
6. baby's favourite thing  A dragonfly with crinkly wings on his playgym, its tail is just the right shape for chewing on and the wings keep getting poo on them when he does a poosplosion on the floor, dunks his feet in it, grabs his feet then grabs the dragonfly in the space of about 3 seconds, so lucky it's machine washable!

   1. baby's age  3 and a bit months
2. their cutest quirk  grabbing a handful of her hair while I'm feeding her
3. any allergies/illness  not really - a small hernia in her tummy button but that's about it!
4. sleeping habits  Pretty good at night - down at 7pm, wakes once during the night for a feed then up at 7-8am. Catnapper during the day - 4-5 sleeps of around 40mins each
5. feeding habits  because of her short sleeps, she gets breastfed about every 2 to 2 1/2 hours during the day, and once during the night.
6. baby's favourite thing   would love to say me   but probably the bunny that goes on all the car rides with her
