Edie gets hold of a pot of hummous

...but with just a little bit of guidance she starts using the carrot stick and the hummous as dip.

In other news she can now say 'bird'. In fact last night she was awake for an hour impressing us with her lastest word. First word was 'bye', followed by 'cat', then 'hi' said whilst holding something to her ear e.g. plum, water bottle, a hummous covered hand, mobile phone. She can also mimic you when you say tick tock and even looks at the wall to see where it is. She is standing unaided and can almost stand for as long as 15 secs.

She is also a daredevil.  We went to the water park in victoria park which, being the hottest day of the year, was packed. It was a little terrifying as they is a wide range of people there, including a toddler drinking coke out of a baby's bottle.  Anyway, I dipped edies toe into the gentle stream of water and as quick as a flash she is on her hands and knees crawling away to try and negotiate a bottle from the hands of a 2 year old. She never once looks for me, although she is probably all to aware that I am a millisecond behind her ready to spoil any fun she might want to have (rescue her from putting who knows what into her mouth).

Anyway, it was a lovely day out with a antenatal babies, Bonnielicious, Hammond Heap aka HRH and Beatrix.
