This week Summer has got her third tooth - it put her off her food for a couple of days but as you can see above she is always more interested in what mummy and daddy are eating!

We are getting ready for our holiday to Woolacombe. In the picture above Summer was trying on her new UV Suit in the hope that we get some sun!! Granny and Grandad are coming too so it will be lovely to spend the week together.

Summer has had two practice sessions at her nursery in preparation for mummy returning to work in four weeks. She loves the staff and all the toys but seems a bit unsure of the other children at the moment - she isn't used to being around so many all at once. It is a lovely small nursery just around the corner from our flat that only has ten children under two years old.

Last weekend we met up with Matts Dad and his girlfriend Willemien in Winchester. It was a lovely sunny day so here are a few pictures. Above is Summer gazing at her Grandad. Below is Summer and Willemien outside Winchester Cathedral.

Below is Summer and daddy enjoying the sunshine.
We still haven't managed to get a very good video of Summer crawling but there is a little movement in the below video. She is still going backwards but is definitely trying to work out how to go forwards!!

She's on the move......

Well, this week Summer has surprised us by starting to crawl backwards!! We were always told by the doctors at Southampton Hospital that it was unlikely that she would crawl because of her exomphalos and that these babies usually bum-shuffle or go straight to walking. Summer likes to prove them wrong quite often!! At the moment it is a sort of commando crawl but backwards and is very fun to watch. I will try to get her on video soon - when she speeds up a bit!!

Photos from the weekend

We had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend. These two pictures show the three us at our favourite tea room near Lyndhurst in the New Forest on Monday. Summer didn't look very interested in the cream tea but mummy and daddy certainly enjoyed it!!

These two pictures are of Summer and her friend Nuala on the beach on Sunday. They played together very well although they tended to want whichever toy the other was holding!! The art of sharing is yet to be learnt.

Peek-a-boo...............

Here is a video of Summer - she is now playing peek-a-boo with us!!
