2years 1month

How has it already been a month since her birthday! Goodness me. Well, today's blip is brought to you by my temporary stand-in camera. Which I utterly hate and makes me feel so sad that i am missing beautiful photo opportunities. But I am trying to convince myself rubbish photos are better than no photos. Its not working at the moment.

Anyway, she has had such a good day at nursery today. I arrived and the nursery manager stopped me to say how fabulous she's doing. She said "isnt she such a little character?!" and that she's incredibly cheeky and very sociable - they're getting her totally worked out. Today is the 6th nursery day in a row free of accidents, and she had seconds of her lunch today (then refused tea completely!)

The staff in her room said the difference when she goes outside is so incredible. For a long time, she was frightened of it, and now apparently she is bouncing when she realises its outside time and charges out to the bikes. She let Monkey sit on the edge of the water tray for a lot of the afternoon apparently. So proud!

After nursery, Granny and Grandad came to see us for a bit and joined us for tea. She had them both playing with her food and play kitchen and loved snuggling up between them to eat ice creams together. She was so quickly asleep when they'd gone and she'd had her bath!
