Mamatography 16


Today we went to Stanwick Lakes and had a thoroughly enjoyable day. The adventure playground there is awesome! With sand and water features to play in too. B loved getting wet. Even the inside of her boots were soggy! But what I found most wonderful was her fearlessness. This photo shows her climbing up the netting to go down the slide. We've had the policy of telling her that if she can't do something at the play area by herself, then she shouldn't be doing it, as we want her to problem solve for herself. And this is the result - she can climb with the best of them. My little mountain goat.

Mamatography 15



This is B's drawing of her granddad. I'm so proud! It's the first drawing she's done that has any resemblance to what it's a drawing of. My daughter, the artist!!

Mamatography 14: Siblings - April


It's so lovely to watch the developing relationship between my beautiful girls. B loves to cuddle M, and the other day she spontaneously said, "I love you," as she was hugging her. I have to admit, I did shed a little tear! B also calls M "my precious lady," which she's heard the hubby calling us.
As M is getting more interested in her toys, so is B - she loves to play with the baby toys, but is very insistent that she is sharing. She's very helpful in finding things for M to play with and in showing her books. I do think B is desperate for M to grow into a playmate, as she keeps talking about what they will do when M is bigger. She has big plans!
M is still besotted with B. She watches her constantly and smiles and laughs at everything B does. We're already getting the feeling that she's going to be one of those little sisters that grins when her sibling is caught doing something they shouldn't, whilst also being the one encouraging them in the first place! She also shouts at B to get her attention, which does make us laugh.
