Mia has started her road to cuteness. As if she could get any more cute but she has! The other day she uttered her first proper unprompted word. We were celebrating the Wills and Kate wedding and we said cheers and offered our glasses up. Mia responded by picking up her pink sippy cup and said “chzzz!”.
You can now differenciate between Jake and Daddy now. She sometimes says an abbreviated version of Jake that sounds like “jk!” or even just “j!”. She says Daddy as a question while raising the note at the end as in “Daddddeeeeee?”. Again, extremely cute 🙂
The walking is still not quite there. She can walk holding one of our hands but much prefers two. She can fly up the stairs though and even climb up the slide in the garden which is a little scary.
Today was Mia’s first morning at the child-minders. Amy found a lovely lady to look after her just 10 minutes walk away on Ladywell Road. When I came to collect her after two hours working Sara(the child-minder) told me Mia was a little upset when I left, which was pretty much what I though would happen,but soon picked up. When I came to collect her up I detected a little crossness with her. She kept looking away from me while she was sitting in the pram. :-(.
This was evidently just tiredness because when I got home she dove into her cot to snuggle in with her taggie. After what seemed a very small sleep I made her lunch and then afterwards took her to Emmas for the afternoon while I carried on working. It’s all very hectic with Amy working on these Tuesdays!!
