Strange reactions

I walked up the little set of steps today. I know it’s not really interesting news, but the real subject of this post is my parent’s strange reaction. They were very excited and discussed how I did it for ages. I really don’t understand. They do it pretty much everytime (occasionally I get them to bump down with me!), so why is it a big thing when I choose to do it too.

Two favourite requests

I love to ask mama to “catcht you”, because when I do she will chase me and throw me around when she gets me. And sometimes I just need “durdles” like when I’ve hurt myself or feel sad. When I ask for them I get squeezed tight in mama’s or Dada’s arms.

18months old or 1 and a half

Today was my birthday, mama and Dada insisted on me sitting on the sofa with them so I could smile before a big flash of blinding light happened over and over. 

Then mama and Dada made me stand on the little flat white square, which I usually like to sit on or stand on leaning on the wall. This time I had to stand without leaning and very still. After a little while they clapped and congratulated me I was 9.7kg, so that must be good.

Then I was very good standing in front of the tree, so mama wrote on it. It means I’m 75cm. I think this was good too as I got another clap.

All this forced activity has made me tired, so I’m off for my usual afternoon nap.

Fun in the Sun

Spent the day in Queen’s Park with mummy. We saw lots of doggies, a bee (which mummy said was busy and so didn’t have time for being tickled), budgies, goats, chickens, a rabbit, a hoover fly and lots of planes.

After a nap, I played with K and his mummy. But I really wanted to play ball with lots of other children. I got a tasty ice cream, but mummy ate loads before I could, though she let me finish it. Then we went to play on the slide and climbing frames.

It’s been a busy, but fun day, so I am off to bed.

I was helping Daddy with the washing this morning

Just be nice to me!

I have 6 teeth trying to poke their way through my gums, so my mouth is in lots of pain. I’m doing the best I can to get through each day and night ignoring the parin. However, if I suddenly decided to scream and cry for no apparent reason or get cross when I wouldn’t usually, please understand that I just need a hug.

Daddy finished putting together a QuadroPlay castle today (he ran out of connectors and had to order more, silly!). Here I am playing on it.
