I am ONE!

I turned one on Christmas Eve. We had already had my party but I still got some presents. Mummy and Daddy gave me a wooden trolley and Daniel gave me some pink gumboots that he picked out himself.

Its been a while since I have been weighed and measured but I am definitely getting bigger. I am pretty good at eating, I am preferring to have real food rather than baby mush. I will try almost anything and eat meat, chicken, smoked salmon, avocado, kumara, potato, carrot, tomato, sundried tomato... my favourite foods are probably strawberries, blueberries, kiwifruit, rice crackers and lamb.

I can say a few words like bird, bye bye, up, Daddy, Mummy, hello. I love birds particularly and spend a lot of time trying to see them out the windows. I love books and pottering around playing with toys. Daniel and I often play chase up and down the hall and it is super fun and makes us giggle.

I am getting more confident around people and love hanging out with Nana and Granddad and Daddy is becoming one of my favourite people. Sometimes if he puts me down I cry. I am crawling at speed and can pull myself up onto my knees and sometimes into standing but its a lot of effort.

Here are some photos of me on my birthday:


The gumboots Daniel gave me (he hung them up too, very helpful)
