Thursday 31st January 2013 ~ Today Daisy and I went on a boat along the Thames all the way from North Greenwich to Embankment

And after Daisy had gone home, I had a lovely time with my Uncle Ellis and Aunt Veronica

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Nine

Wednesday 30th January 2013 ~ Today my friend Daisy and her Mummy Charlotte came to visit all the way from Llanbradach in Wales. We went for afternoon tea and then for a long walk along the Thames...

 ...when we got home, Mummy and Charlotte gave us both a bath...

 ...then we played together before bed...

...and they tried to get us both to smile for a photograph but we weren't keen

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Eight

Tuesday 29th January 2013 ~ Today it was Grandma's birthday

Grandma opened her card and presents and then we lit the candles on her cake and sang Happy Birthday. We went for lunch in South Woodford and then did some shopping before coming home again

I had a really fun day. I hope Grandma did too.

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Seven

Monday 28th January 2013 ~ Today I had a very busy day

I started a new Singing and Signing class near Daddy's work, Mummy and I met Daddy for lunch, we went shopping and then we went home to make a cake for Grandma's birthday tomorrow. I was really looking forward to helping out... 

...but I was fast asleep by the time the cake came out of the oven

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Six

Sunday 27th January 2013 ~ Today I had a lazy Sunday.

I had a lie in, a cooked breakfast...

 I spent some time lying around with Daddy...

 ...and hanging out with Grandma Catherine and Grandad John

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Five

Sunday 27th January 2013 ~ Today was a very busy day. I swam underwater three times...

..and I rolled over for the first time

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Four

Friday 25th January 2013 ~ I'm five months old today!

This morning I ate some rusk, mainly to stop my Mummy eating them all. I understand why now because they're delicious.

 This afternoon I went to Yoga and Singing and saw my boyfriend Eddie-Frank. I'd been playing hard to get and ignoring him for a while now but today I realised he's actually pretty cute

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Three

Thursday 24th January 2013 ~ Today I was gracious enough to be entertained at baby sensory, although I roared like a pirate when mummy took me out to lunch afterwards. Perhaps tomorrow will be a little more pleasing.

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Two

Wednesday 23rd January 2013 ~ Today Mummy and I went to meet Cyra for lunch in West London. Cyra was very nice but I didn't think much of the cafe we went to. There wasn't much space for my buggy and Mummy had to change me on the floor of the toilet.

Day One Hundred and Fifty-One

 Tuesday 22nd January 2013 ~ This morning I enjoyed my tummy time...

...and this evening I enjoyed eating my sponge in the bath

(in between there was some sleeping and some watching of television)

Day One Hundred and Fifty

Monday 21st January 2013 ~ Today Marianne and I went out for coffee in Wanstead and our Mummies tried to get a photograph of us both smiling...

...but didn't quite manage it

Then we went home and Marianne came round to play. We kicked our legs and held hands on my blanket...

 Marianne pulled my cardigan and had a cheeky stroke of my face...

...then we both hung out in our chairs while our Mummies had lunch. 

Marianne's my best friend.

Day One Hundred and Forty-Nine

Sunday 20th January 2013 ~ Today Mummy, Daddy and me went out in the snow for lunch with some friends...

 Mummy and me sat next to Tammy - you wouldn't guess it, but she's having a baby!

 Auntie Amy came along too, she was very nice to me, but I was a little distracted by my naughty Daddy.

See what I mean? He said some very strange things and left me all confused.

After a lovely time, we said goodbye and Daddy pushed me home through the snow.

Only to find this friendly snowman in our front garden waiting to say hello!

Day One Hundred and Forty-Eight

 Saturday 19th January 2013 ~ Today I went swimming with Daddy and I was a very good girl...

...so Mummy and Daddy bought me a tasty new giraffe teether that feels nice on my gums (I can hold it  myself when I'm not feeling lazy) 

Day One Hundred and Forty-Seven

Friday 18th January 2013 ~ This morning it started snowing and I watched it with Mummy from the window

 Then we went out for a walk in the snow. The wood looked like it was coated in icing sugar

 I was wrapped up all cosy and warm but I could feel the snowflakes on my face

 ...until Mummy put the camera away and put the rain-cover on my pushchair

Day One Hundred and Forty-Six

Thursday 17th January 2013 ~ I met my friend Marianne at Baby Sensory today and we had a lovely time 

Day One Hundred and Forty-Five

Wednesday 16th January 2013 ~ Today I went to see Les Miserables. It was an epic tale of life, love and the fight for justice. It was gritty and colourful, full of excitement, adventure and passion; an emotional rollercoaster. I was surprised at how well Russell Crowe could sing and I especially liked the little urchin boy. Sacha Baren Cohen made me laugh and I cried a bit at the beginning. At the end Mummy cried all over me. I'd like to see it again 9/10

Day One Hundred and Forty-Four

Tuesday 15th January 2013 ~ Today Grandma and Grandad came and I played Peekabo with Esme

Day One Hundred and Forty-Three

Monday 14th January 2013 ~ I spent much of today inside watching the snow and practising my screaming
