Kirsty's painted egg

Last week at Toddler Group, the children painted a ceramic egg to celebrate upcoming Easter. Today we got to see the finished product (the company took them away to dry, varnish & add the kids names). Her's is so sweet! She didn't put much paint on it but it's unique and hers. The lady who was runing the painting table at Toddlers asked me if I wanted to "finish" it for Kirsty *gasp* I politely refused and said Kirsty had done what she wanted to do to the egg!

When we finished painting it, the lady asked what I wanted written on it, I asked to have her name put on and spellt it out to her ... the lady said "Is that how you want it to be spellt?" ... "want" it spellt? I was like, umm yeah, that's how her name is spellt! What a bizarre question to ask me!!

Kirsty playing whilst mummy cooks

What a clever girl playing with her ITNG toys whilst I cooked dinner. Usually she gets really crabby when I cook! She enjoyed lining the characters up on the footrest of her highchair (excuse the buggy raincover drying on the doorhandle lol)

Peekaboo & fairy cakes!

This is how Kirsty spends a lot of her time lately, she will put nankie (her blanket) over her head, and then pull it off and say "boo" or "peekaboo"!!





Also, we made fairy cakes & iced them this afternoon. We shared one for snack, when Kirsty's bowl was empty, she brought it to me and said "all gone". So clever & sweet!

Trying out our new buggy

Long story short: we had to put the Oyster back to the store as it was becoming less reliable by the day. It gave a horrendous "creak" as I took it up the back step, the chassis was becoming quite wobbly so I took it back and got another brand. I decided on the M&P Sola, we (Kirsty & us) love it!! Kirsty thinks it's very comfy for napping!

Fixing the car seat straps

I read online today about how the car seat straps should sit on Kirsty's shoulders. Unfortunately I had them too low. We re-routed them to the correct height. Here's Kirsty testing it out...

Trying out our new meitai

I sold our hug-a-bub sling and bought a meitai which is better for Kirsty now that she's a bit bigger.
