My First Halloween

My Mummy and Daddy are very daggy, they dressed me up as a pumpkin all day today! Mummy even put me in the window for decoration ... ahh, parents eh! We also went trick or treating - well, just next door to see Vicki, Phil, Annabel and Pat. Annabel was all dressed up too for a Halloween party that she was going to.

We gave Mummy a well deserved morning off, and Daddy took me swimming. Gee I enjoy getting in the water! We almost didn't make it because Daddy couldn't find my bathers - luckily at the last moment he found them - hoorah!

Tonight we are off to Ellie and Paul's - Mummy and Daddy will have dinner there, and they are hoping that I will be a good girl and sleep well the whole time. I might have a few tricks up my sleeve though (PS. and she did!)

Month 9 Photo Link

8 months old today!

I've now mastered the commando crawl, and I can get about well, keeping Mummy and Daddy on their toes! I really want to get going now though. I have my 2 front bottom teeth, and a few more are threatening to pop through. Winter is fast approaching, and I've been catching colds and building up my immune system!

Here is the link for the Month 9 Photos. We will keep this updated as the month rolls on, so keep checking this link out.

PS. I just put a few more photos onto the Month 8 photo link as well.

A Walk in the Park

After playgroup today, and of course my morning nap, Mummy and I met up with Lindy and William for a walk. William wasn't so much fun today, he slept for most of the walk. Lindy said he wasn't well. It didn't stop Mummy and Lindy from nattering though!

We went along the Sankey Canal, and it was lovely. All the leaves are starting to change colours and Mummy even sat me in a pile of leaves that had fallen off the trees! It was fun! We stopped at one point to look at the swans and their babies. One was a bit scarey, I thought it was going to jump out of the water at me - we moved along very quickly, and didn't stop to look at them again on our return trip!

Splish Splash I was Taking a Bath

Oh what fun bath time is!

I don't know who got more of a bath, me or Daddy! I was very hyped up tonight!

On the Move

I am getting stronger and more adventureous all the time. I've just got to work out that crawling thing!

We've had another busy weekend! I've even been a good girl and slept through the night for the past 2 nights. The medication seems to be helping my cold, which is good news. Because I am sleeping so well, I am much happier during the day too. Mummy and Daddy also seem happier too, not so tired!

Yesterday we went to The Jungle for a play. While I was there I met another little girl called Megan. She was a couple of months older than me, but it was still fun playing with her and watching her do stuff like standing, clapping and waving! I must learn how to do that someday!

Ellie and Paul popped around in the afternoon with Sam. Uncle Paul was trying to show me how to push the walker. I kind of got the hang of it, well until the chair got in the way! They asked Mummy and Daddy to be one of Sam's godparents, which they are very chuffed about.

We went to church this morning. I really enjoying watching all the people and listening to the songs! Today there was a funny girl sitting behind us, and I couldn't stop laughing. Luckily Mummy rushed us home, and we got home just before the rain really came down! Otherwise we would've ended up very wet, as we were walking!

Daddy has just been for a run, phew did he look a bit hot and bothered when he got home! Good on Daddy for getting out there. When he is all showered he is going to take me for an outing! Hoorah, time with Daddy!

I Love My Daddy

I love my Daddy,
he makes me very happy.
When he has been away a while,
I give him a great big smile!

Yep, that is me, great big smiles for Daddy when he comes home from work. Now this is not to say that I don't love Mummy too, but I reserve my extra big smiles for when Daddy comes home. Mummy gets the extra big cuddles, so it all evens out!

This afternoon Mummy took me to the doctors, because I haven't been feeling very well. Today, I just could not keep my food down, and Mummy was a bit worried. It was a bit scary at the doctors, and when the doctor was having a look at me golly did I cry. She said I had a bit of a viral infection, and has given me some antibiotics to help clear it up. Hopefully it kicks in quickly so I can be a happy girl again!

We also went to the farm shop again today. But because it was so chilly outside, and I wasn't too well, we didn't get a chance to have a look at the horses. Mummy wanted to keep me nice and warm!

Brrrrrrrrrrisk Morning

Oh, what a chilly morning! Mummy and I were not rushing out, that is for sure! When we did, Mummy made sure I was nicely rugged up. When we arrived at playgroup, I was nice and toasty warm.


Also, Mummy discovered today that I have another tooth! It is keeping company next to my other bottom tooth!

The Jungle

Daddy had a night out last night, and I was up early, so we were all a little tired this morning. Daddy suggested a trip to The Jungle, which is where we went ... I went with Mummy earlier in the week, where we met up with some friends, and Daddy wanted to see what this place was all about! Basically it is a big play centre with things to climb all over. There is a special area for babies which is where I go!

Mummy and Daddy had a coffee and a chocolate muffin, while I had my lunch. I was even lucky enough to get a nibble of the muffin too - hmmm, I think Mummy is working on my sweet tooth! I then got to have a play with the toys which was fun. I really like the big mirror they have there, it makes me laugh!

Yesterday Mummy helped out at a Nearly New Sale, and she came home with lots of great new toys for me. I am particularly happy with the music on the walker - although I'm not up to the stage of walking with it just yet. I'll just press the buttons for now and play with the flaps!

Winter is Coming ...

Oh no, winter is officially coming upon us ... the heater has gone on! Arrrrgh! For how many more months, who knows?? Mummy is keeping me nice and warm and always makes sure I go outside rugged up! I think this is because for the past 2 weeks my nose has finally stopped running!

Today was the usual Friday, off to baby sensory class and then the farm shop. In our free playtime at baby sensory I even managed to crawl (somewhat) through a tunnel. Mummy did have to coax me through with the promise of a toy to play with at the other end, but none the less I eventually made it, and I could tell that Mummy was very chuffed with me! At the farm shop we bought our fruit and vegies, and then we went to have a look at the ducks and horses. There was a very friendly horse today, and gee he made me laugh! The way his tongue moved in and out was very funny!
