I never find time to write this Blog now...

I don't know why but I'm finding it really hard to keep my blog updated, which is really annoying because this is where I can openly air my thoughts and feelings and remind myself of all of Amelia's achievements and developmental stages.

So, a bit of a catch up.... I have been back at work for 3 months (don't ask, it isn't going that brilliantly) but on a more positive note Amelia is really enjoying nursery and seems to be getting a lot out of it. She is naturally a socialible baby, but nursery has encouraged this even more and has also encouraged her development too. Although the crawling (or lack of) is a bit of a frustration (for her as well as me!) she seems to want to move onto walking first. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, seeing as she isn't even 9 months old yet. I was quite pleased for her last night though. She got up onto her knees to reach out for a toy that was a little in front of where she was playing. She did manage to shuffle forward to grab it, eventually. Bless her. I'm not worried about her in the slightest. She is a very feisty and independent baby that's for sure and wont be told what or how to do things! (yes, this is all very familiar....!) I do love her little personality. She certainly keeps us all on our toes and forever smiling. She has taken 5 steps so far unaided and its only a matter of time now before she's off on her own. Very scary thought. She has 4 teeth too. The bottom middle 2 and then top middle 1 and then the one to the left of that, so a side one. They look very funny :)

So, my baby girl is growing up. Saturday she even grabbed James' face and said "DADA!" when I told her to wake up her Daddy. How on Earth does she know that already? Okay, so we say "Dadadada" to her a fair bit, but surely she's too young to know what or who I mean!? Amazing.

I even have some of her birthday planned as well, as sad as I am seeing my baby girl grow, its a really exciting time too. She makes me smile each and everyday. :)
