Poppy was here for the afternoon yesterday and again today, with her Mummy. Lee was out watching the football yesterday so Emma turned up with Poppy just after lunch, then this afternoon Lee was taking a mate to the airport for his trip back to Italy, Steven had been here for a long weekend and had met Poppy for the first time.

Poppy has not wanted to eat much today, she is probably teething, also she likes to feed herself and has started to object if you feed her with a spoon! Too independent that child! We tried her with a spoon last week but she has not got the hang of it as yet and my jeans ended up covered in yogurt! I made an apple cake luckily, and she did manage to eat some of that so at least she had something fresh and home made, even if it was not the Sunday roast I made!

Poppy was making us laugh so much today, she wants to drink from a cup or glass so every time she seems somebody with a drink she is immediately in front of you, waiting for you to allow her a drink from your glass! Problem is quite a lot of it ends up down the front of her tee shirt and some on the floor! She seemed quite suprised today when some dripped on her feet! Emma says she tries to drink quite a bit of her lemonade in the pub before Poppy notices it and wants to drink it instead! She even said "me" today when she saw me with a glass of water, at least thats what it sounded like!

On Friday Poppy spent her second ever day with the childminder, she had her undivided attention for the morning as the other little boy she has on a Friday was at nursery for the morning. Apparently Poppy enjoyed going in the pushchair to pick him up and seeing the other children. Yesterday morning she went to a birthday party for 3 year old Ava at Jungleland, she sat at the table with all the other children, even though she was the youngest at the party, Emma had ordered jam sandwich for her, though she wanted all the chips and fish fingers that the other children were eating! As Emma said she had to put the order in for her food some time ago, and did not think that she would have progressed to fish fingers by then! Emma had to sit behind her on the floor while Poppy sat on a little chair, I bet her knees were aching, and all the other children headed back to the play equipment while Poppy was still ploughing her way through her jam sandwich so she was keen to be off back into the ball pit! The rest of her meal was little bits and pieces, so she took it home with her!

Tomorrow Poppy is back at the childminders, she goes Monday and Friday for the day. It is apparently playgroup tomorrow with Sallianne so hopefully Poppy will enjoy playing with the other children and making new friends. Watch this space.
