Poppy was at her childminders yesterday but we still got to see her when Emma came to fetch Lily the dog, you see even when we don`t get the baby, we get the dog! She is not used to being on her own, so Emma drops her off every morning on her way to work!
Poppy went to the dentist with the childminder and her family yesterday afternoon! Sallianne had tried to change the appointment but could not manage to, and so she asked Emma if it would be allright to take her with them. Apparently she had a great time, everybody in the waiting room loved her, she was smiling and entertaining everyone! There were toys in the waiting room so Poppy was able to play with them and by all accounts she really enjoyed herself! She was the lucky one I suppose, she did not have to let the dentist look at her teeth - yet! Talking of teeth she has 8 though we think she has at least another one on the way, there is certainly a bulge in her gum which looks as though one is sprouting and she has been quite snotty the last couple of days, a sure sign. As she often gets quite chesty when teething, and actually spent three days in hospital on oxygen, nebulisers and inhalers because she was so wheezy last time some teeth came through we are just hoping she escapes it this time and hopefully her teeth will come through without the trauma of last time!
We had a fab bargain from our local charity shop yesterday, we pop in from time to time to see what toys they have, we have been able to get quite a few things from there in the past, and after a good scrub in hot soapy water they are sparkling clean and ready for use. I walked in while Gray was at the cash machine getting some money and saw, standing in the corner, a baby walker, and not just any old baby walker but a posh V tech baby walker. Grabbing it before anybody else had the chance I noticed it was on sale for £2.50, bargain. They are normally quite expensive, well over £20, maybe even £30 so it was a good find. Unfortunately there was nothing else to grab yesterday, I went in looking for some easy first wooden jigsaw puzzles but none were on offer, I saw some a few weeks ago and thought Poppy would not be ready for them just yet, only in the last couple of weeks she has started to be able to put the shapes in the shape sorter, put the rings on the toy and so I think she is ready to start doing the little easy jigsaws now, wish I had bought them when I saw them but hindsight is a great thing! Oh well, I shall just have to keep a lookout and grab hold of any I see in the future. Poppy is doing something knew each day it seems, or almost every day, we talk to her all the time and she is always coming out with new words, and quite a few you cannot understand at all! She babbles away, facial expressions adding to her "words" as though she knows just what she is saying, though we haven`t a clue! Looks like she is going to be just like her Mum, she never shuts up either! Sorry Em x
