I'm 2 years old today. What a difference a year makes eh? I can do so many things now. I can sing, dance, run, jump, stand on my head, walk up and down stairs. I talk a lot even though I cant pronounce everything, I talk to everyone and if I dont know their name I just call them 'man' or 'lady'. I'm really settled at nursery and have lots of new friends. I've finallly given my parents some relief by getting over my bad spell with eating (tho' im still very fussy), and since mum invested in a mickey mouse electric toothbrush for me she has even managed to brush my teeth a lot lately. I love story books and my favourite TV programme is Peppa Pig. Mum only realised 2 weeks ago that I'm of the age when I will agree to do something I dont like if Im promised something I do like. I now volunteer for toothbrushing so that I can hear my favourite bedtime story, which is 'I know a Rhino' by Charles Fuge, with 'Gingerbread man', 'Figety Fish' and 'All aboard the Ark' other firm favourites. I still, as ever love wearing things (almost anything) on my head. Just today I've worn a tupperware box, a leather cap, my bob the builder hat (in the shower), some wrapping paper, the sticklebrix box and a shopping bag on my head. I love giggling and laughing and start to play my own games and jokes on people when I can. I've been sleeping in my own bed for about 3 months but I do still wake up crying around 2-3am so often I wake up with mum or dad next to me. I even by-passed the potty and pooed in the toilet this week - twice! When mum offered her congratulations and a little round of aplause I denied that I had indeed done it and shook my head 'no, no' in embaressment/confusion. The next day I was more prepared and took my praise proudly.
For my birthday both mummy and daddy stayed at home from work and last night when mummy asked me want Id like to do for my birthday I said Id like to go swimming with them both so that's just what we did...only they took me to the big pool with wave machine at Burntisland rather than the local duck pond which is what Id suggested. I was so excited when we arrived at the pool that I was actually jumping up and down and whooping and shouting 'wow', and then cried when we had to leave. Now that we know where the pool is though mum says she'll take me at the weekends more often and get me signed up for swimming lessons.
I got some fantastic musical cards from my grandparents today and have played them all day long insisting that everyone in the room dance and sing too. Thanks to my grandparents and friends for the gifts and cards I recieved. Sorry I dont have any photos to upload just now - I think daddy might do that in the morning. x x x
