Hello from an old friend

Today (see! I am totally up-to-date now!) I was visited by Leanne, who was Mummy's doula and so was present when I was born.

I only remember her a little bit, so it was really nice to see her again.

We played down by the river, and had a lovely time.

I can do standing!

For a few days I have been pulling myself up on Mummy and trying out standing, but yesterday Mummy showed me how to do it on my own. She helped me stand by the TV table, and I stood for five minutes before I had to have a sit down.

I even moved around a little bit! Mummy says I am super-clever.

Look at how clever I am:



Visiting Droitwich

Droitwich is where my Grandma and Granddad and Nanny and Granddad live, although not in the same house. For the bank holiday weekend (see, I am nearly caught up on my blog!) we all went to visit them. we stayed with Grandma and spent a day at Nanny's.

I did lots of fun things, and had lots of stories read to me and people playing with me, which was fun. I also saw Uncle Martin and Auntie Cheryl.

Here are some pictures from the weekend.

With Nanny.



With Granddad Taylor.

Playing with Niamh and Conor



Niamh and Conor are two of my bestest friends. Conor is three and he is keen on me. He brings me toys and builds towers for me to knock down.



Niamh is my inspiring friend - I watch her crawl and cruise to see how it's done, so I can try it myself. Sometimes she is a bit rough with me but Mummy says to fight back, so I do.



These pictures are from when I went to Niamh's house and played in the garden with her tent and tunnels. Conor joined in too. It was really fun.

Visit from my friend

I had a visit from my friend Kian the other day, with his Mummy Emma. My Mummy knows her from her antenatal classes, which apparently happened before I was born - I didn't know things could happen before I was born.



Kian and I had lunch together in our garden, and then we went to the river where he had his first ice-cream. It was really fun and I hope I see him again soon.

Strawberries

I love strawberries. They're sooooo yummy! I had some in the park the other day and they were lovely.
Mummy and Daddy decided to take picutres because they think the way I eat them is funny.
I just hold one and then bite, bite, bite till I can push the last bit in my mouth. OK, the juice runs down my chin, but I don't see why it's so funny.
Anyway, these are the pictures so you can see what you think.




Just checking it over before I begin.
















A testing bite.

















Getting stuck in.













Another inspection.







More chomping.








This one apparently shows what a big mouth I have. How rude.

Going visiting

I am still very behind on telling you all my news. This post is about when I went to see Mummy's friend George in her new flat. George came to visit me when I was very little, and I have visited her in her old house, so it was nice to see her again.


She gave me lovely cuddles and also some snacks which was great because Mummy had forgotten to take my snacks with her!

George has two cats, and although they hid when I first got there, and kept running away from me, I was able to have a stroke with George helping me, although Chicken doesn't look too happy about it.



I love cats so it was very exciting to be able to stroke Chicken. I did try and play with her but she kept walking round the edges of the room so she was as far away from me as possible. I don't know why. All I would do is pull her fur - surely that's not so bad?
