This month has been ‘choc’ full with christmas, new year and family visits. We’ve laughed, cried and sometimes shouted. You’ve learned to dance and clap. You finally cut your first teeth on new years’ day.

Mummy: This photo looks just like one of me when I was a baby, ask me, and I’ll show you.

Mummy: The competitive streak is in you, even if it is only winning some bed space.

Mummy: You’re around 4 months old here, I chose this picture because the expression on your face is so grown up.

Mummy: A sneaky little smile lets me know that you were happy to be here.

Mummy: Daddy gets the biggest smiles when you’re playing your silly games.

Mummy: We did lots of activities, I don’t know if you …

Following on from my last post;
I was saying how Erin loved playing her piano, here is the link

also, today, I gave her a special treat. This Fisher Price Musical Pipes toy was supposed to be for christmas but I sneaked this one in early sorry, no link, can’t find it anywhere, perhaps Erin has the last one….in the whole world!!
I’m finding that only now has she started showing any interest in toys, this bodes well for christmas!

Lots happened this month.
We went on our first family holiday and you talked to the ducks, rather you did this funny coughing thing at the ducks, which you think is talking. All the family now ‘talk’ in this funny coughing way, and I am considering a packet of strepsils to be a useful addition to the christmas stockings this year.
You can say mumum and dada. You ask for Daddy when he is at work, then you act all shy when he comes home. Mumum usually comes out …

Erin has grown up a lot this month
She is up to three meals a day (with deserts). She loves laughing and trying to talk to everyone. Her physical development is definitely a bit slower than her emotional and mental skills, which I think are quite well developed – but then I’m her mum

Wow! It’s been six months? (I check the calender again, yip definitely six months)

This month we took Erin swimming for the first time – which she really enjoyed. She is babbling like a baby pro, some of her ‘stories’ last upwards of ten minutes (you should hear some, so interesting!).
Her character is definitely starting to emerge, she’s cheeky, happy, nosey, smiley….
and great company – I haven’t felt like that before but recently I have been quite enjoying our little ‘chats’ and impromptu ‘sing-alongs’
