Emily just loves playing with Annabelle and Riley.Can you believe our baby girl is 10 months old already? Crikey where has the time gone? She is growing so fast. I know that I say this every month and that is because it is true. Lately she has a new trick and that is to see how fast she can slip away from my view and race up the stairs to my bedroom. There are approximately 20 steps and she can quite easily navigate all of them. She is very confident at it also and has yet to have a fall or slip to give her a bit of a reality check, mind you we are never too far behind her and the security gate that was once at the top of the steps is now at the bottom - much to her dislike. She loves reading her 'Peekaboo' books, they are touch and feel and have little flaps that you have to lift to find the baby or the animal etc. She loves lifting the flaps herself. She really enjoys going to school with me to drop Riley off and pick him up again. In the mornings we will usually take a little bit of time and watch some of the animals, she particularly likes the geese and ducks and tries to imitate the sounds that they make. She also likes watching the rabbits hop around their pen and the roosters chasing each other and crowing. She can now point out her head when asked as well as her ears and her tummy. She thinks she is so clever (and we do too) so she claps for herself when she gets it right. This past week she started to pick up my mobile and put it to her ear and say "Hello" (very cute). My friend Shelley thought that this was cute at dinner the other night and whilst Emily was eating a piece of pizza she asked her who was on the phone and so the pizza was swiftly slapped against the side of Emily's head and she said very sweetly "Hello", pizza was stuck in her ear and hair after that - nice one Shell thanks! (actually I think Shelley got a pic of it on her camera).
I'm not sure this is what the books quite meant about 'self feeding'...............
This is Emily enjoying some pasta and pureed sweet potato for lunch today.

Boy oh boy she sure is growing fast and in leaps and bounds.She is very forward and clever for her age. She is also incredibly intelligent from everything I can see.I really love watching her playing with Riley, it is obvious how much he loves his little sister and she loves him back too.They have so much fun together.Riley is such a good big brother.Keep those photos coming, we love them.My love to all...
