Sunday 16th September 2007

Well, what a weekend it's been. Firstly yesterday I had a visit from Granny Judy, who babysat me whilst mummy went bellringing and daddy played golf. Granny Judy changed my nappy twice, and gave me lots of cuddles. Then today I had a visit from Auntie Shellie and Uncle Chris. Auntie Shellie is a health visitor and gave me a clean bill of health - she was very impressed with my eye contact and how I was trying to hold my head up. Auntie Shellie brought me some lovely clothes for when I'm a bit bigger to add to my already extensive wardrobe. I've been continuing to eat furiously to try and get the 9lb mark this Friday, so it shouldn't be too long before I can try my new clothes on. When I'm hungry (which is most of the time I'm awake), I make sure mummy and daddy know about it by making a loud noise, and I even suck whatever is handy at the time - like daddy's nose! It doesn't produce any milk, but it's quite nice to suck on.

I also had to have another bath tonight. I'm starting to like baths, especially now that daddy lays me on a special contraption in the bath which means I can lie just above the water, and he can wash me without having to hold me, which I know hurts his back. It means I can splash around. Today I was pushing the end of the bath with my feet to help strengthen my legs and build up my muscles. Mummy dried me with a special towel and blew raspberries on my tummy - I liked it so much that I nearly smiled.... Mummy and I are off to Buggyfit tomorrow again, so I'll sleep well tonight to make sure I'm ready for my workout.

Hello pretty girl
I had a wonderful time seeing you on Saturday. Thank you for entertaining me with your 'funny faces' and happy little ways. I guess I'm going to miss your first big proper smile - but will look forward to seeing it when I'm back from my holidays.
I now have your picture on my mouse mat, my wall, my fridge, my phone, my computer, on the mantlepiece.......! I just love being your granny.
lots of love & kisses xxxxx
