'Walk walk walk!'

'You'll be wishing that she wasn't walking once she is......' These words were ringing in my ears as she was running away from me in Tesco today. I am however totally over the moon that she's walking properly, and we delighted in buying her first pair of shoes last weekend.

'Walk walk walk'

I love how she asks me to 'walk walk walk' with her. I love that she has the worlds biggest, silliest grin on her face when she stands up and runs away from me! I love that she beats her belly like a gorilla as she is stomping across the floor! I love that when she falls down, she gets back up and carries on. Strong willed and independent, that's our G.

Poxy Pox

She finally caught it. Chicken pox. It had spread like wildfire around the town, and with two other children at the childminders having it, her turn was imminent. Thankfully she only had it mildly, and is over it now (all bar a few scabs, one of which daddy picked off!). Plus like they say, once she's had it, she's had it.

As a result we did have to miss G's hearing test, but I'm not too bothered as she would have screamed the hospital down anyway.

Moomoo's shed

It's like a playhouse, only bigger and nicer! Daddy's plans of a man shed quickly evolved into plans for G's den after we saw how much G loved Pa's summer house. Now it's a sage green and cream haven, which has luxury lino floor, a variety of pretty lights and wall hangings, and could easily be mistaken for a vintage beach hut. She's obsessed with it, and it's name varies between 'said and head', but we couldn't have made a better investment. Cheaper than a playhouse too. Plus it doubles up very nicely as a Pimms and wine shed (she says sat on the sofa sipping a Pimms whilst it's tipping it down outside!).

July appointments....

We've a busy few weeks coming up:

-Gastro appointment regarding her reflux

-Dieticians apt regarding her ever growing list of food 'no nos'

-Feeding and speech appointment (what's the betting that all of her 65 words will evade her on that day!)

Best get those ear plugs at the ready because she'll be testing those lungs!

In August we'll also have our first appointment with the endocrine team to discuss G's Turner Syndrome and her future Growth and hormone treatment. 

For now, we're looking forward to some extra mummy & G time over the summer holidays, and our trip to Norfolk. 

Ice cream anyone?? Dairy free of course!
