After a few days of shuffling she’s starting taking proper steps! Hooray! Fun for all the family

Friday 23rd of March was Isobel’s first birthday! Blimey – was that a year already?
We’d a birthday tea on Friday and then on Saturday we’d a proper party lunch – with Barbapapa birthday cake! After that we went to the city farm and she saw her first sheep, pigs, lambs, goats, horses, peacocks, swans and rabbits. She was knackered after all that!
She got all sorts of presents, wore a lovely dress from Auntie Irene, rode her pushbike, hammered with her new blocks and generally had a great weekend… and so did we!
On Sunday we hung up her swing (thanks Paul & Yvonne) and she was over the moon all over again.

Here’s a few photos to be going on with…

Quick photo for the folks back home: Isobel in her tracksuit!
Hurry up and get the webcam working over there!

Nicely wrapped up, in the ski-suit, on the sheepskin rug in the trouser-suit in the pram. With scarf and woolly hat!
Still… brrrrr!

Isobel is very proud of her new record of standing up for almost four minutes

Well, here she is in her new favourite top – which she got from Auntie Irene. It’s hand-knitted – by Irene? Must ring her and thank her! Isobel likes to pull the hood over her eyes, the push it back and play Peekaboo!

She’s also dragging herself around the floor now – not quite crawling, but she can get a fair rate of knots just by pulling herself along with her hands. Here she is clambering into a starting position.

And finally – a shot with a big toothy grin! Well… if you click on the photo and get the big version you can zoom in and see two teeth sticking out above the gums!

Look!

Hi everyone,

I’ve finally found some time to quickly upload a brace of photos. I know a brace is two and this is eleven – just enjoy the pics!
Hi to everyone in County Antrim, especially Isobel the First. Hope you’re doing okay, nanny! Also, many thanks to Paulene for helping me out getting over to the funeral.

And without further ado, here are a selection of photos expertly taken by Sanne.

And now some in the dress my mum bought

And a couple of my photos. Ciao!!
