Somellier in training

We had lunch with Elseanne and Edith at Becky's house. Ivy and Elseanne are very good at pointing out places that could do with baby proofing before Edith can crawl- for example this wine rack... It was a really good lunch- I laughed alot and got some quality Edith cuddling in. We went to the allotment afterwards and Becky laughed so hard at my weedy little squash plant compared to Elena's luscious forest of plants she was practically crying. (it's a back up plant- i'm not worried, but it as very funny)

At rhyme time this morning, Ivy said 'Mama' and everyone heard. I was thrilled.

Ivy has been very, for want of a better word, bosterious today. She's been shouting and making funny noises alot. It's hilarious. After her bedtime massage tonight and before her last feed she was in hysterics laughing at Euan's spectacles, so we decided to tickle her whilst she was in a laughing mood. It's probably terrible parenting to get your baby all hyped up before bedtime- but she has a whole sleep book before bed to relax to and her laugh is so irrestable :D
