10 Months Old

I came home Saturday afternoon to find Kev and Maddie asleep in the lounge when really Maddie should have been having her after lunch nap in her cot!!!



Washing Machines & Mirrors

Maddie has only been crawling for two weeks now, but she is definitely fast and into everything, now she is on the move her favourite things are watching the washing machine and looking at herself in the mirror.

On the Move

Maddie started crawling properly today, shes very pleased with herself and is into everything. She's saying Mamma all the time too, after over 3 months of only Dadda, much to Kev's delight she is now saying Babba and bab-da as well and we think she was saying duck too when we went for a walk along the river yesterday.

Big Day Out

Maddie and I went into London (her first time) on the train today to see her Uncle Scott, he met us at the Liverpool Street Station and we took the train to his apartment in Canary Wharf, train stations are not very pushchair friendly at all, there were a few lifts but a lot of them weren't even working. Maddie had a great time people watching and making friends with people on the trains. I'm sure she said Mama twice tonight as well for the first time.

9 Months Old

Maddie was 9 months old on Thursday, its hard to believe really, its gone so fast and we will have been in our new house a year next week too.
Maddie isn't crawling yet, but shes not far off, she slides backwards on her tummy a lot and is attempting to pull herself up on furniture.

Boxes and Bubbles

Maddie had hours of fun with this box over the weekend, she played in it, around it, threw things in and out of it, ate in it. She loves bubbles as well, but maybe not as much as her Dad likes blowing them.

Bad Cold

Poor little Maddie, she has a terrible cold, its progressively got worse over the past few days, we didn't even go to swimming today and now I've got it too.

First Swim

We took Maddie for her first swim today, at the sports centre down the road, she loved it, didn't cry at all and was kicking and splashing around.

Maddie in her swimsuit, (togs to you kiwis)

Her NZ t-shirt from Emma

Feeding time can get a bit messy with Maddie because she won't sit still

Wearing one of my old dresses so almost thirty years old, a bit like a fluffy meringue, sorry Nanny.

Now this is more like it, rock chick

her black rock t-shirt from Uncle Sam is a statement, I'm sure there were old ladies at the supermarket tutting the other day, babies shouldn't wear black
