get outta here…
i love this expression on her face…kind of 'well you know im sat on the floor, on my brother's coat and thats okay..its interesting..sat here..on the floor….im not bothered….
..um…..
so i think….
'waaaaaaaaaaaahhhh'
heh heh..no she didnt burst into tears, she was okay and after this she decided to forage in my bag which is just to the right of her and she what she could find.
I know every month i come here with and lament the speed of time…its just not fair, it moves to quick and i just cant.stop.saying.it!
Someone said to me the other day the more kids you have the faster the baby stage goes by, probably because you are so busy. But these days with Matilda have flown. I was writing in my 2010 diary the other day and realised how close we are to her shhhh 'first birthday' and im just staggered that this time last year she was so nearly here…..
<sigh>
Anyway…Matilda Rose James at 10 months you are:
1. Going backwards, as in motion, its frustrating for you and us. You end up under the furniture and we have to come rescue you…often…
2. You like to stand, you get a bit smart and try one handed but so far that produces the mother of all wobbles.
3. If its on the floor its worth giving it a taste…
4. You have already sussed out that the iphones look int-er-esting…grabby grabby…
5. You have 1 dress and 1 skirt. We like trousers, they are easy and especially good when sliding round on your belly is the way forward…..or backward
6. You will not drink anything but milk.
7. Still no teeth, hey still a breastfed baby..you wont hear me complaining!
8. You were the best behaved a your sisters ballet show. Sat and clapped your hands and pumped your legs to the music. You were enchanted i think.
9. early morning you decamp to our bed and snuggle for a bit. Although its a bit on the early doors side kid, i love the snuggly bit
10. You are still sleeping in the nature nest and bouncing it like an athlete.
11. you have been to your first party. A swimming party for one of Isaac's buddies.
12. You hair appears to be going curly at the back, it might just be bed head tho 🙂
13. You are still very cautious around people you dont know, particularly if they pick you up. Horrified usually describes your expression.
14. Who needs to learn to move when you have a big brother and sister who will tote you around the house, even if the way they carry you looks pretty unsafe…to me..
15. you take it into your head to do random back flips when sat up. You can be sat happily playing and then all of a sudden throw yourself backwards..its like spinal turrets…its not always a happy ending tho, sometimes there is something soft behind you, sometimes its the cold, hard floor…you may want to re-think this behaviour lovely.
My bonnie wee girl. We love you.
