Musical discoveries

Hi little boy!

You discovered the drum-stick today, the one that your Daddy caught when he and I went to see the band Cake in concert a while ago. You realised that you could reach for things on the bookcase that were higher than your head, and you even stood on tip-toes to get it.

Sticking with musical discoveries, you scared the bajeebus out of yourself when you discovered what the volume nob on the amp does! Fleet Foxes were playing 'Helplessness Blues' and you had a good old cry over that one. Silly duffa! So now, no doubt, you are going to make a bee-line for the nob to play with every time you're over there... sorry, neighbours!

Putting cream around your mouth
is quite the mission...

I'm so proud of you today, little one. You are healthy again! You had a full bottle (yay! Finally!) and just had a picky lunch, like your old self. Corn (which you like to grab a handful of, smoosh somewhere near your mouth, and hope that some of it gets inside somehow), cottage cheese, zucchini and blueberries, and I fed you some plain cereal. You also had lots of water out of your new cup, though I don't know how much you actually drink - it's mainly just playing with it in your mouth and then spraying it all over the table. But I know that if you were dehydrated you'd get some, so I'm a happy mummy today.

Love you, bubbaloo. Did you know that it's less than three weeks now until we jump on an aeroplane and head to Australia to meet your Grandma and Grandpa, your Granny, your Aunty Jill and Uncle Ryan and your cousin Ashleigh, and until you get to have lots of cuddles again with Nanny and Pop? Wowsers!

Snow drops on our morning walk today

Love, Mummy.
