Bless her, she is growing up too fast!!

It is nice to see Poppy looking so well, especially after the scare we had when she was in hospital a couple of weeks ago with a nasty viral chest infection, poor little soul was on oxygen, steroids, nebulisers, she was not well at all.

She is not walking yet but at 10 weeks early, even though she is over a year old, her age should only be 10 months, and she is doing all the things she should be doing for a 10 month old baby, and come to that the things she should be doing for a baby of a year old too, basically she is getting along well. Her crawling is very fast, especially if you say you are chasing her she speeds up quite a lot, then turns round to see if you are coming and laughs at you! Standing up while holding on to the furniture is a doddle for her now and she can stand without holding on for a little while, holding a toy, she sometimes forgets and falls over but thats life as a baby I suppose! She wants to feed herself, flapping her arms around to try and prevent Mummy from pushing a spoon full of food into her mouth when she has had enough, it may be time to give her a spoon soon to have a go, though I doubt she would manage to get much food into her mouth herself at the moment with a spoon, though hand her a biscuit and she has no problem at all! Faced with a bowl of ice cream funnily enough her mouth soon opens wide! And the mess she can make with some chocolate! Unbelievable!!

Nappy changing is no easy feat either any longer, she certainly does not like to lie still so you have to be lightening quick, or chase her around and hope she does not wee on the carpet! She thinks it is very funny to roll over quickly as soon as her nappy is removed and crawl away as fast as she can!

Bless her, she is growing up too fast!
