It's been quite a hectic weekend, entertaining baby nat :) Seeing all the fun her little friends, jamie and zofie had during their painting sessions, this lazy mummy finally decided to take the paint out and let nat have a go at it. She had a great time, made the floor all yellow and purple and enjoyed her playtime bath therefter. Quite an interesting activity for children over 1 year old but be prepared to whisk them to the bathroom for a quick shower.
Another new discovery over the weekend, nat's current fave drink is Ribena. Didn't really want her to drink something so sweet but I did want to give her something else to try besides shoving water and milk to her all the time, so I came to a compromise ... extremely diluted Ribena. The interesting thing is that nat loves it. She guzzles it down by the mouthful and if one dares to move the cup away before she's done, she'll scream in protest. This weekend, I also tried my hand at a new recipe, potato cheese patties. Nat's ok with it, but she does not seem all too appreciative of my efforts labouring over the kitchen stove, tsk tsk.
Nat has also been growing up quite fast in terms of both height and weight. Problem is at her height now, she's fast reaching the table height and half the time, as she runs around the house, I'm freaking out that she will knock her head on the edges. So this mummy came up with an ingenious albeit silly looking idea ... have a look ... and don't laugh. I was just telling gary its no use investing in heaps of table guards as she'll quickly outgrow this height in a jiffy. Sorry teddies, you'll just have to bear with it for a while, till nat gets taller (bear with it haha get it ...!!!)
Do enjoy this video of nat at her class in Julia Gabriel. In this new term, my baby seems to have become a lot more confident and definitely more vocal. Interestingly, so have some of the other girls in class. Not the boys, though. Hmm ... interesting huh!
Oh yes, one final thing to report. Nat's first clear word is ... baby! Today, I was just telling her "I love you, baby!" Guess I must have repeated it many times because suddenly she said <baby> loud and clear. Both gary and I heard it and were stunned for a moment. We've been trying to get her to repeat it since but she ain't buying it ... my little girl has a mind of her own and she'll speak only when she wants to ... haha :)
