New games

As the days pass, you seem to entertain yourself and amuse us more and more, making taking care of you such joy and makes waking up 3-4x at night more bearable :) We think you play peekaboo with us by bending your body halfway to look sideways. However, you do it even when you are not looking for anybody.
Your enjoyment of bathtime and laughing with yourself in the mirror
Your love of tearing tissue and paper to bits and putting it in your mouth
This is also what you did to your cotbed headboard, which we have wrapped up nicely (to be used when we convert it to a bed in the future) when you are left inside your cot and bored. Showing your creativity or just simply because you can't reach to tear behind the cot bars?
Taking posed pictures of you when you are not distracted require some skill. You do try to smile into the camera but because you are so active and move about so much, the photos always turn out blur. Hence, most pictures of you are taken while trying to make it into a game or opportunistically when you're not looking.

Playground

After 'making' us dispose off the coffee table, you proceeded to take over the whole living room and make it your playground with toys constantly all over the place.

You can also sit very steadily now and crawling in your own way. Your latest amusement? Yourself :) We have caught you kissing and licking yourself in the mirror many times.

High chairs

Since you are able to sit on your own, you have sat in many baby chairs. The best one had to be the one with a large pooh behind as you were first scared by it and later amused you throughout dinner. We ate in peace. Maybe this is the one to get for our house.

Indoor activities


In the week before I started work, I decided to bring you to all the activities available in the children's centre as this was probably the last opportunity to do so. So, in one week, you went for an activity a day including the 'kindermusik' class, messy play, softplay and baby swim class.

Although you were a little shocked by the classes as they were quite noisy with lots of babies/toddlers, you enjoyed everything except for the messy play. I suppose stepping in cold and sticky jelly and strawberries' not your cup of tea, and probably a good thing too. I will definitely bring you again to the soft play and sensory room because they open in the evenings but its a pity I can't bring you to anymore 'kindermusik' or swim classes.
