Miss Lo Update!

Thought i'd do a quick update on the lady herself. So much has changed of late and the months are zooming by!

The big news is crawling was mastered and shes like grease lightning around the house now. She is also pulling herself up and standing. We have a low level windowsill in our lounge and she loves to stand and wave out the window. Waving is another new skill. Although the timing and demanding of this, or lack of it makes me think she Is either having a laugh with us or she thinks its some kind of dancing.

As much as i hate the CBeebies Summer Song, Tabs loves it and bounces up and down waving away when it comes on. So of course i have to join in and turn the volume up...Anyone passing by the window, sorry.

Hmmmm what else?

• If you pretend sneeze she cracks up. A proper belly laugh.
• She is not scared of the food processor anymore.
• She can turn a cry into a scream if she feels its not gaining its rightful attention.
• Marmite or Jam sandwiches, Cherry Tomatoes and Petits Filous are all she needs to survive.

Oh and she still has no hair.

The Gallery - Playtime.

Theme of the Gallery at Sticky Fingers this week is Playtime. 

I think Tara was hoping i could not possibly be so depressing this week!

We have just discovered the park.

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.

THE RULES:

1) Give groveling gratitude filled thanks to the blogger who awarded you - Thank you Nudie, your one of the reasons i stuck around on Twitter when i first thought no one in the Mummy Blogging world swore or got drunk.

2) Share your five word blogging philosophy - This was hard, i've settled on.....

 Because i like doing it....

I started Mumra to keep my mind active and share my experiences of being a new mum and i carry on  for the reason given above. When that stops so will i.

3) Nominate further bloggers of substance.
Mummy Mishaps....Jenny is one of the nicest blogging mummies that there is. She writes a blog full of love for her son and partner that just makes you go 'Aaah'.
Mocha Beanie Mummy....Jay has probably had the most effect on my blogging life. She writes from the heart 100%. I love that she is always up for the challenges given by life and takes them on wearing a smile.
