Mummy finds tea time quite stressful, especially if I am a bit tired and grumpy! So I end up sitting in the bouncy chair in the kitchen so Mummy can chat to me and keep me distracted! She has hung me up a toy on the kitchen drawers which keeps me busy for ages especially as it is both noisy and great for chewing on!!!
Mummy found out Sam's old baby walker (that actually belongs to Abbie - Mummy is hoping I am walking before Ben wants it back!). I love it. I can stand and play with toys on the little table and if Mummy puts me on the kitchen floor (laminated) I can actually move myself around! Mummy was astounded how clever I was!
Abbie has been very generous lending me lots of her clothes. Mummy loves these pink PJs and thinks I look very cute!
I love to put things into my mouth and I am not fussy what! I am happy to chew on someone's finger, a toy, a newspaper or anything else I can get my hands on. Still no sign of any teeth but I have bright red cheeks a lot of the time so I am sure my teeth are moving under my gums!
I have well and truely got the hang of rolling. During the last couple of weeks (from about 5 and a half months)I have discovered how to roll to the left (previously I could only roll to the right!). Mummy has now discovered that I never stay where she leaves me when I am on the floor. The trouble is I don't seem to have any sense about objects in my path and I will continue to roll until I bash into something!
Mummy decided that the time had come to try me on some solid
Now that Lisa has had baby Ben, Abbie and I are the only two girls in our group! We'll have to stick together against all those boys!!!!
Unlike Sam who didn't move for months, I am getting the hang of getting myself about! I haven't mastered crawling yet but I can now sky dive and have also worked out I can get to the top of my cot if I lie on my tummy and bring my knees up like a caterpillar! Mummy doesn't think it will be long before I crawl!
Mummy has found me out Sam's old door bouncer and has put me in it a few times. The first time I had a go I wasn't too sure, however once I got the hang of it I was quite happy to bounce around, even turning myself round if someone called my name! Mummy is happy we've found something new to occupy me 
with!
In the true spirit of Christmas, Mummy tried to dress us all up with various bits and bobs in an attempt to make us look Christmassy!
Mummy can't wait until my hair gets a bit longer so she can put it into bunches and plaits and ribbons! Until then she thought she would get me a pretty head band. I, however wasn't too keen on wearing it as I kept getting my fingers underneath and twanging myself! I guess Mummy will just have to wait a bit longer before she can do things with my hair!!
ssed, we popped into Auntie Rosie's house, I got lots of cuddles from my cousins. We then went to Nanny and Grandad's. Once I had said hello, and had my bottle I very kindly went to sleep on Nanny's bed (surrounded by lots of pillows to stop me going anywhere - Sam was in the cot!). I slept for over an hour and a half (as did Sam) so everyone could eat their Christmas dinner in peace! After lunch we had more present opening to do (or rather watch) and this time I enjoyed playing with the wrapping paper!
