Our little raver!

Lydibug is now 1 year and 1 week old and she has had a great few days. She has loved getting all her toys out and decorating the lounge with them. I think we need a trip to Ikea for some more toy baskets, but that also means I'll buy all sorts of things that we don't really need... I'm already mentally making a list. And I must thank her uncle for the fuzzy felt card which she loves but everyday I've had a panic thinking she has eaten part of it, it's way out of reach now. Here she is with most of her gifts, she was a very lucky girl.



Little Evil Kenevil!

 On Friday we went to Lollypops and Lydi had a great time playing in the ball pool and on the bouncy castle. She especially loved the hole in the bouncy castle and the way it blew her hair everywhere, she looked like she was on the set of an 80s power ballad video.
Today we went to a lovely 1st birthday lunch but our little bug was not her usual happy self until she got in the paddling the pool, then she managed to wear herself out with all the splashing. We should have gone to another party in the afternoon but Lydi was shattered and hadn't eaten much so we stayed home and she slept most the afternoon. I think it must be from her needles, thank goodness it's 6 months till the next one.

I've finally got round to uploading some videos. Here's one from her big day and a great one of Lydibug dancing. When I was pregnant she would always move about when the Black Eye Peas came on the radio and now she loves her Daddy's music. I wonder if he'll ever complain that her music is just a load of noise in the future.

We have just discovered our barren banana tree is with bananas. Yay! The price of bananas has tripled since Cyclone Yasi hit. There are quite a few on there but I'll have to check when to harvest them and hope Blossom Possum doesn't help herself.  As you have probably guessed I don't know much about gardening, I think that gene missed me but I would love a veggie patch. It's on our very long list of things to do.

Hope you are enjoying the blog, thanks to those who leave comments, it's good to know I'm not boring you all. I've even past the blog baton on to a friend, who will be next?

Forgot to add Lydi now helps at bathtime, she can wriggle out of shorts, tries to pull her tops off and afterwards can moisturise her right leg and right side of her tummy. It's so funny to watch as she just can't cross that invisible centre line, but it all helps.
