Everyday we watch our daughter grow and develop into a little person, sometimes a little and on some days she blows you away with what she can do. We find it so wierd to see our little doing ordinary things like scratching her ear or rubbing her nose because she’s worked out thats what soothes the itch or irritation we laugh just watching her.

It so much fun now she will play with you interact with you but now she can crawl its all about investigating EVERYTHING Some people said that the trouble starts when they crawl but I think the fun began I agree you have to watch her….like a hawk but Reagan proofing the house helped immensely and she still out foxes you but the proofing means you can leave to her own devices for a couple of minutes.

Her wanting to stand is also a god send because she will now pull herself up to the standing position at every available opportunity and once up will stand for ages watching telly and this gives you loads of time to do other stuff like make tea lol. I sit and watch her and she holds onto the fire guard with one hand and you can see she is learning to balance and will shuffle along holding with both hands and swap to the table and then the telly stand and back again. I just think there will be a leap of faith in a few weeks and the toddling will begin?

Upstairs is proofed too and she loves crawling around between rooms although we have to keep the bathroom door shut because there’s still a little proofing work to be done in there. She does love bathtime and will crawl to the bath if you call her and pull herself up and he bath to be then lifted in.

We love being a family and all three of us have so much fun together now, yes our lives are busy but its so rewarding now I wonder what we used to do before to fill our time?

Last nights bath time was easily the most fun Reagan and me have had, we placed her in the tub and then Mom went to the bedroom leaving me to bath her but instead of getting on with the scrubbing we decided….well Reagan decided splashing was really fun and makes her giggle.

…and boy did she giggle as we both splashed water everywhere using our hands! It is such a wonderful sound hearing her giggle is easily the best in my opinion because she just sounds so happy!

We splashed and splashed and by the time we’d finished dad was de..renched but it was so much fun who cares. I believe Grandma was called half way through so she could listen to us its just a shame that in this day and age we are made to feel its wrong to video bath time because I’m sure it would have been a belter!
