Day Eighty-Four

Wednesday 31st December 2014 ~ Today was New Year's Eve and I spent a lot of the day lying around looking cute...

...I also caught up on some light reading. I especially enjoyed the books my sister got me for Christmas

In the afternoon we went to Clara's friend Marianne's house where we stayed all evening. Clara played with Marianne and Mummy and Daddy had dinner with Marianne's Mummy and Daddy

Marianne has been talking about me since she last saw me and couldn't wait to give me a cuddle...

...I actually quite enjoyed it!

Mummy and Daddy tried to get me to go to sleep but I wanted to stay up and see what all the fuss was about. At midnight, everyone said Happy New Year and there were lots of loud banging noises outside

My sister and Marianne woke up just before midnight and we watched cartoons in our pyjamas until it was time to go home to bed
2015 is going to be brilliant

Day Eighty-Two

Monday 29th December 2014 ~ Today Daddy drove us back to Southend to meet my family. We saw Mummy's Aunt Maureen, her cousins Gemma and Louise and their children...

...Then we went to meet Mummy's Aunt Julie

She was lovely

And just when I thought the excitement was over for the day, my Aunt Melanie, Uncle Laszlo and cousins Levi and Ferdi turned up. It was really great to meet them all but by the time we left, I was ready for bed!

Day Eighty-One

Sunday 28th December 2014 ~ Today we all went to Grandad John and Grandma Catherine's house in Kent. I didn't sleep very well last night so I spent a lot of the afternoon asleep in my car seat

I woke up after lunch and watched my cousins playing with their new Christmas toys. I was too little to join in so I enjoyed some cuddles with Aunt Veronica instead. I'd not been to Grandma and Grandad's house before so it was good to see where they lived

Luckily my sister was there to look after me. She told Mummy when I was hungry...

...and gave me cuddles too!

Day Eighty

Saturday 27th December 2014 ~ I had a relaxing day today, hanging out with my new teddies

Day Seventy-Nine

Friday 26th December 2014 ~ Today was my first Boxing Day and it started well with a relax in bed with Daddy in my new Christmas babygro.

When I'd woken up from my morning nap, the house was full of people wanting to smile at me and give me cuddles - both my Grandmas and Grandads, Aunt Amy and Uncle Ed.

Here's me having double fuss with my Grandmas...

...cuddles and more cuddles. I could get used to this!

After a costume change, it was time for us all to sit down for lunch. Daddy gave me the crown from his cracker but it was far too big for my tiny baby head...

...luckily Grandma and Grandad bought me my first baby cracker, which had a baby-sized crown that fit me perfectly and matched my outfit. We finished lunch and opened more presents...

...and by then I was all Christmassed out

Day Seventy-Eight

Thursday 25th December 2014 ~ Today was Christmas Day. My first ever Christmas. Clara said it was going to be fun and she was right! It started with presents in my stocking from Father Christmas, which Clara helped me look through...

...she helped me play with them too. Oh look, a squeaky monkey in a stripy jumper!

And a hungry Christmas monster top. Don't I look cute?

Before breakfast we went downstairs to open one present. I helped Daddy open these lovely champagne glasses from Mummy...

...I got a book from Mummy and Daddy with my name in it

On Christmas Day, I did quite a bit of relaxing in my great Christmas outfit...

...some reading of my new book...

...and some hanging out with Mummy opening presents. Uncle Ellis and Uncle Phoy got me a great stripy hat and mittens to keep me warm. I'm going to be the best dressed baby in town.
