: : : Here is the news for October : : :|

Tuesday 31st October
This evening I was dragged outside into the freezing cold - I admit I was wearing my extreme WARM coat though. My feeling was that I should have been getting ready for bed, but there I was helping collect sweets! Later on I had a really deep bath with Andrew and Peter, It was very very funny.

Monday 30th October
I am really getting the hang of pop up farm, which I belive my predecessor babies have all enjoyed. I have mastered the red pig, but the other one's secrets still need unravelling.

Sunday 29th October
The time has all gone wrong. No one tells us babies about when the clocks go back. Apparently no one know when my meals, sleeps and snak times are.

Saturday 28th October
I slept through the whole fancy dress thing even though I had spooky ghost clothes on and apparently looks gorgeous. Mum also washed the straps of my pushchair = they were really tasty.

Friday 27th October
There will be no news today.

Thursday 26th October
The really big news today is that I have found out exactly why I have been waking up for the last two nights. My very first tooth has arrived. It's at the bottom on the left. I am very pleased with it.

Wednesday 25th October
Today I have not been feeling very well. I was up for a lot of the night fidgeting around. no one was pleased, least of all Mum who had to put up with all the grumbling.

Tuesday 24th October
Today I was fast asleep in my pushchair enjoying my afternoon nap whenI woke with a start only to find Grandad's face looking at me. It was nice to see him but I had to do my extreme surprise face at him.

Monday 23rd October
After last night's drama when I rolled off the bed I am pleased to report that I suffered no lasting damage. Luckily for me I fell onto a cushion and only bumped my nose a little bit. Apparently I am following ina great family tradition of rolling off the bed as my brothers have done before me.

Also - Andrew has started to stroke my hair which is very nice.

Sunday 22nd October
I've done a lot of laughing today. Grandad was helping me do it in the morning but then, while I was asleep he disappeared. I was a bit put out. I also was a bit sad that my babygro with a skeleton on it had to be taken back to the shop as it didn't fit me. The bones were also a bit inaccurate. there were only 5 ribs.

Saturday 21th October
I have now managed to work out a way of getting out of my doughnut seat. It involves a lot of rolling around and there is a small danger of bashing my head, this time that was avoided by Dad catching me just in time. The floor is still to shiny to crawl on.

Friday 20th October
Grandad is here. He has a funny beard.

Thursday 19th October
I started today by having a really good sing song at around 6.30. Mostly my songs start with some high pitched screeching and some raspberry noises. They are all very good songs.

Wednesday 18th October
My best new trick is still blowing raspberries at teatime and seeing how far I can spray my food. The answer is that I can spray it a very long way if I concentrate hard enough.

Tuesday 17th October
There will be no news today.

Monday 16th October
I have been reasonably grumpy today, only letting up my complaining when someone else other than Mum was wathcing me. For example, when Mum came home she told Dad that I had been very grumpy all day so I spent the next 10 minutes smiling and laughing at Dad. I do it on purpose to make me look good.

Sunday 15th October
I am so tired today that I have been taking frequent naps. In the afternoon I sat in my pushchair and watched everyone playing football in the garden. It was very annoying not to be able to join in, but my legs are just too small.

Saturday 14th October
There will be no news today.

Friday 13th October
I've got a brand new trick. I very much enjoy making an aeroplane noise when I'm being fed - not only because it makes the food go everywhere, but also because it makes Mum make the same noise which is very funny. In fact I've all but stopped eating any food at all unless she is making an aeroplane noise.

Thursday 12th October
I have discoverd that I can actually move around on the floor from one place to another, but only backwards. Sometimes there is no way to tell where I'll end up because it's all a bit random. My floor is very slippery so if I lift my feet off the floor I can push myself with my hands. The thing is I am usually trying to move forwards.

Wednesday 11th October
Dad was back today and I sort of recognised him , but then after a minute I was sure I knew who he was. Apparently he has been on a big boat. Today I took part in being in a school photo. It seemed to be very difficult for mum to get us to all smile at the same time. Obviously I either smile or burp all of the timem so it was probably Andrew's fault - he seems to be very uncooperative.

Tuesday 10th October
I've been very good today, while all around me were complaining and groaning only I have retained my dignity. Also I rolled about a little bit.

Monday 9th October
There will be no news today

Sunday 8th October
I sat and watched everyone working in the garden today. It was quite breezy, but I was safely tucked into my pushchair and it's cositoes. At least I didn't have to wear my big coat that renders my motionless.

Saturday 7th October
Today I had to wear my big coat that renders me motionless because we went to the park and it was cold.

Friday 6th October
I was small, round and smiley today.

Thursday 5th October
I have not had much call for any coughing practice today. I've just been smiling a lot.

Wednesday 4th October
I have been practicing my gurgling today. Coughing is not enogh to get by on and it seems that gurgling and laughing will get you noticed just as much.

Tuesday 3rd October
Today I have been practicing my coughing a bit. Coughing is a very funny thing to do and I have decided that I really enjoy doing it - so I had to do a lot of practicing. Everyone seems to think it is very funny - except for when I practice it with my mouth full of food.

Monday 2nd October
I have been a little bit grumpy today, with plenty of grumbling.

Sunday 1st October
Today we went to the rainy park where I was once again made to sit in my little chair. At least now that I can sit up I can see just about everything that is going on. TO be honest I am lucky that I didn't get struck my a conker. They were falling out of the trees at a furious rate.
