Lovely days of play!!!

I am so enjoying my little girl right now!! She has all of a sudden emerged into a toddler who just loves to play and learn and we have so much fun together. She is saying quite a few words now, her favourite being 'gone' as she hides something or throws it off the highchair and it comes complete with the hand gesture to go with it. She loves to explore and climb which has given me a fright on various occaisons, epecially when she climbs up on the lounge then proceeds to try and dive onto the next lounge, all the time thinking it's very funny as mummy runs to catch her.
She has gotten very fond of being outside and yesterday discovered some flowers to smell.

She LOVES music and has the cutest dance moves, she bounces up and down but she also does a side to side bum wiggle at the same time that is hilarious. She loves watching Hi 5 and dancing to their music too and always claps when I put it on.


She has also recently become fond of carrying this dolly around with her and cuddling it. When you press it's tummy it says 'I love you' and does a kissing noise and it always makes her laugh.




She is getting the hang of riding her horsey and especially loves the noises and music it makes, you can see the very cheeky face with the tongue poking out, she very much takes after daddy in the cheekiness department :-)




She can now stack all her rings and will give herself a big clap when she's done.




and she loves building and stacking with these boxes, and of course then knocking them down.








We have our pretend cups of tea together....








and she is starting to try and put the shapes in the right holes. She got one right by herself today and was very, very proud!!! She also loves books just like mummy and Jaden, although as well as reading them she also likes to eat them and we have many board books with chewed corners, we also have quite a collection now of flaps that need to be taped back onto various books.
My little Bethany is just such a delight and I am really looking forward to having a few weeks with Jaden at school before the baby comes to just spend time with my bubba girl before my time has to be split with another precious little one.

Wow Bethy is so cute and looking so old now!! Loved especially the first pic with you and Bethy, you look positively radiant, mamahood certainly agrees with you!! It will be wonderful to have those few weeks with just Bethy, how precious.

She is adorable. One is such a cute age. It will be nice for you to enjoy having only her for a little while. I live it when I get the oppurtunity to enjoy just my bubba!
