Good Bye Port Lambton!

It's in Port Lambton that Wee M really turned into a little girl! She started to assert her independence (not letting me buy her boy water-shoes when they were the only ones in the store that fit), she became a lot more vocal about what she wants - using words and gestures to get to what she wants. Wee M ... you want Krispies? NO! ... Wee M ... you want O's? NO! ... Wee M ... you want Raisin Bran? Yes (big nod!). On that note, she is eating a lot better and hasn't had a 'food bag' since the beginning of the month. She also insists on being given a choice of clothes to wear in the morning - tending to pick the outfit that is most 'girly'!

She is getting really good at her independent play, and she also plays with Chippy a lot better, too. She knows when Chippy is playing and will play along. Probably the biggest news is that she can count to 10!! She sort of just bumbles along in a loud strong voice until she gets to 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and then you can really make out the words. While her pronunciation may not be perfect - she still has 10 distinct sounds that she utters - video to follow when we can get a clear count recorded.

Overall, she's a pleasant 1 1/2 year old who loves cuddles and blowing kisses! :)
