7 months


Sorry we haven't blogged for a while. Katie has been up to all sorts, so we thought we'd fill you in.

She has now progressed to 3 meals a day, usually fruit or weetabix for breakfast, followed by vegetables for lunch and more vegetables for tea. Debbie has been busy boiling and blending various combinations and we now have a freezer full of colourful ice cubes. Meal times are interesting, challenging and funny (but funny in the same way as when I came home to find the dog had eaten the budgie!)

It's been a month of consonants. She's been good at vowels for a while, but we now have da, ba, ra, but still no ma.

Swimming has been great. The first thing she learnt was to hold her breath when Debbie says 'Katie, ready, go'. This is to prepare her for her underwater swims (which she is loving!). The problem is that everytime we say 'Go', she screws her face up and closes her eyes.

New game. Katie's latest bit of fun, is reaching her toes and pulling off her socks. This is great when she's in bed, but not so great in Asda.

Giggles galore. Katie seems to be a naturally happy baby and loves laughing. She isn't particularly ticklish, but if you build up enough anticipation she bursts with squeals and giggles. It's very special and guaranteed to make your day.

It's great to hear Katie is doing well. Gabe and I are only at the "dunk" stage in the pool and he's not even sure if he likes it...some days he does, some days he doesn't!
