Two thirds of the way through her first year

Child - proofing here we come

Well, personally, I think my little baby is about to venture out into the big world - yes, start crawling. She has started to try go onto all fours to reach things and if there is something infront of her she can pull herself onto her knees and almost pull herself into a standing position.If I place her on all fours she can support herself and rocks back and forth. Man oh man is she going to be a handful - I can just imagine the things she will get upto.

She is also making so many new sounds and trying plenty new foods. Her favourite is chewing on a chicken bone dipped in gravy and don't you dare take it away from her. Oh and she enjoys her cheese.

Maddy enjoys her videos like her older brother, Kyle, she is glued to the TV when I put her baby einstein (Baby Beethoven) on, to tear her eyes away from it is such an effort. The other day we went to visit Nana and Baloo and we will all sitting out on a sleeping bag at the back while watching Nana do some gardening and along came Tula, Aunty Bibi's cat, oh my gosh - Maddy did a double take and so wanted to 'play' with her. You should have seen Madison's face when she managed to tough Tula's fur, it was absolute glee (just the hugest smile).

Being Madison's mommy is such a pleasure, I absolutely adore my baby girl.
