Thursday 8th May

Had a fabulous holiday. KK was lovely and sunny - we were very lazy. I spent most of the time sitting in the shade around the pool and beach restaurants in my car seat. I have not used it very much before but it was nice and comfy with the sunshade over the top - i have included a picture of me in it, hope you like it. I also went in the swimming pool in my huggies swim nappies - one of which had tigger and winnie-the-pooh on (mummy thought auntie becca would have liked them!) I had some fun splashing and managed to stand up and lay on my tummy and my back - I enjoyed floating around.

KK was very pretty and we had lovely weather - I got to wear some of my summer shorts and tops which was nice. We were back very late on Saturday night but I was on my best behaviour the whole way home. On Sunday we went for lunch with Neil, Lou and their baby bump - another playmate for me in August. It was very very hot so we spent the afternoon relaxing in the a/c at home - bliss!! Mummy gave me a lovely massage and then me and daddy had a giggling session. I am really enjoying sitting up with mummy helping me up, but on Sunday I was sitting and managed to push my legs up so that i was standing (mummy held my arms as my balance is about as good as daddies after one too many beers!). It shocked me that i was standing up so I giggled, which made daddy giggle and then we both just kept giggling, until i exhausted myself and had to lay down again!!

On Monday we had a WAG's catch up - we went for afternoon tea at the 4 seasons. We had scones and jam, which were very nice and i had lots of cuddles from all the ladies.

The other exciting news is that we now have curtains for the lounge and mummies bedroom - this means it is now nice and dark when i have my morning feed which helps me go back to sleep. Mummy phoned the man on Monday morning and we had curtains made and put up by wednesday lunchtime!!!

Had another baby massage class on Wednesday. It went okay, although I really hate laying down unless I am on my change mat or in my cot. Mummy thinks I am particular and the HV said it is because I am bigger now and know what I like and don't like - hence the screaming whenever my nappy is changed in toilets - they are soooo uncomfy!!! Anyway, we managed to do some facial massage and one arm before I needed to get up and move around. We have learnt a new song though - "Peter Pointer" and have taught it to daddy as well.

Hope you like the pictures - "speak" to you next week
