Abi’s been chosing her own clothes for a while now. Citing a preference for dresses or trousers and skirts. This week she has taken it up a notch. She is chosing her clothes out of her draws and then laying them on the floor in the order she wants them put on. She still wants [...]

She’s my Daughter
Those that have had children will know about sleepless nights and funny smelling nappies. But then they’ll also know about the unbelievable feeling you get when you hold your child for the first time and smell its skin and think this is about as good as life can get!
As a father, I know I will [...]
Ice Skating
Eden have had some special infants on ice mornings. After initial trepidation and wearing the wrong very slippery shoes Abi and her friend millie loved it.
such a monkey
I asked abi to stop doing something the other day, she kept going. So I asked her again. After the third time I moved her away so she could not do it any more. She retorted with “you’re such a monkey, mummy”.
The Attitude
It continues to increase, she still wears nappies, probably because she knows mum would love her out of them. When we clean her up on a nappy change she has taken to saying. “it’s my bum, don’t touch me”. If she knows she’s about to be told off she put her fingers to her lips [...]

Please car
Abi is comming on in leaps and bounds with her talking but still uses baby signing to emphasise some points. She has a new book with a fire engine, an ambulance and I have just discovered the please car as she did the baby signing as she said the word.
Shoes
Abi is finally big enough to have aproper pair of measured shoes. She has just about reached a size 2. Her shoes are so lovely she calls them wow. However she also loves a pair of soft swede boots she has been given. In fact she is turning into quite a dressing up girl.Possibly a [...]
