Swimming is good isn't it? I started lessons yesterday, it's like a massive bath without the boring washing bit, and I get to wear a wetsuit! It's a bit boring all the getting undressed and getting dressed again but it's worth it. Next week I might try going under the water!

Mum has finished the playroom and I love it! She said that she finally realised that fireplaces and wooden floors are not baby friendly and that this is not a room to worry about interior design in! I've got posters on the walls, a story time corner, a ball pond and even a posh lilo. It's brilliant!

Here I am on my 8 month birthday!

The other day my friend Henry invited us round to his house. We had a lovely afternoon playing with his toys and chilling out to some nice music his Dad made. Then we all posed on the sofa so Clara's Mum could take some pics of us. Don't we look cute?

Here I am at one of my favourite places, The Limes. I go most weeks and meet up with my friends. They have a sensory room which is amazing, the Mums call it the disco room and love it just as much as we do. It has special lights and music and even a waterbed! I love looking at the magic light bubbles with Clara, it's very calming. We also have band practice, I'm on the maracas. Then we have singing and story time in the tree house!

Finally the weather is getting better and I can have fun outside! I've been on lots of picnics with my friends, alfresco dining is so nice but Mum won't let me eat the grass. I go to the park and play on the swings and roundabout. I even had a nap in the woods with Clara.

I've got a new toy and I can walk in it! My favourite game is to wait for Mum to go out the kitchen and to walk up to the door and shut it so she can't get back in.

Here I am with my friends Ivy and Sonny, they're really great and I love meeting up with them. Ivy lets me sit on her lap and Sonny says he's going to teach me lots of stuff, I think they're really cool. 

At the weekends Dad sometimes lets Mum have a lie in. I like to get breakfast ready for her when she wakes up.

As you can see I'm quite a messy eater! I love meal times and always have a laugh with mum. This is a pic of me pretending to have teeth on the top, but really it's banana, and a video of Mum making me giggle.

Now I have teeth it's very important to keep them clean so I'm learning how to use my toothbrush, I like the taste of the toothpaste it's so minty and fresh. I haven't started flossing, Mum says I don't need to do that yet.

Here I am having my first meal out at Busaba, Mum and Dad were really unorganised and forgot my bib, what were they thinking!! I got through a massive pile of napkins and then covered all my clothes in food. When I was finished Mum took me off to the toilet and changed all my clothes. I had a great afternoon but I hope they bring my bib next time.
