Our week in photos – 10/5/15

1. I’ve been trying to get her to eat plums for ages. Normally, I cut them up into little pieces. She took this whole one out of my hand and spent half an hour eating it.
2. Threading blocks (with holes in the middle) on a wooden spoon – she spent about 45 minutes quietly doing this. It was bliss.
3. Standing on the bed and looking out the window.
4. Sitting in a box that should be full of toys.
5. Making banana muffins.
6. Bowl-head.
7. Sleeping after Mini Montessori (note the sprawl and sticker on the face).
8. Reading the Metro and waiting for the train like a proper little Londoner.
9. Daddy-man hoovering her off after a rice-based dinner.

Out and about

We didn’t get out much this week, although there was a family trip to see the dentist on Wednesday. Pumpkin was really well-behaved and let the dentist really examine her teeth and gums (much more than she ever lets me do!)

He said all of her teeth, except for the very back four) have all pushed through and that she’s well ahead of where most babies are at this age. Apparently, that will mean teething will be relatively easy for us, as it’s harder for older toddlers to deal with the pain. So I’m very grateful for that. Daddy-man and I made it with a good report from the dentist as well, so we all left happy.

Yesterday, we went to the craft store! I always enjoy that. This time, we were looking for various items to use as toys for Pumpkin during our trip the US in a few weeks’ time.

Fun at home

We’ve been busy at home. Pumpkin has started to enjoy some more quiet-play activities. One of her favourite games is threading blocks (with holes in them) on to a wooden spoon and playing with her ‘donut stacker’ toy. It’s so relaxing when she sits doing those activities.

She has also started ‘hiding’ from me by toddling into the bedroom and arranging herself behind the curtains (feet sticking out the bottom, of course) and then giggling until I come to find her. It’s adorable.

On Friday, we did some baking in the morning. It didn’t go quite as smoothly as our first attempt with Annabel at Tickle Fingers – but we still had fun.

Time for me

As usual, I’ve been terrible about this. My free time has been mostly working on switching my blog over to its new template. There are still a few bugs to iron out, but we’re getting there.

My favourite moment was…

She started giving proper kisses again last night. We’ve had a few months without kisses, as she prefers to give us “smooshy face”. But, last night, she was giving me kisses – really wet, slobbery, licky kisses – and it was lovely.
