The spoilt little girl







Yes, That's my little girl!





She deserves it though for being the most divine creature on earth. The spoiling began at the beginning of last week when we bid on a new pushchair on ebay. We presently have a bugaboo, the most amazing pushchair/pram, however after 10 months of putting it up and down we really wanted an easy ,small one to fit into the back of the car. The bugaboo has served its purpose and we have loved it but its off to a good home to some other ebayer soon.




Then on Wednesday we had an appointment with mothercare for a new forward facing car seat. It seems like just the other day we got the infant carrier!. she is now over the weight limit and staring at the back of a seat is not very interesting for a little girl who is very interested in the world around her.




After a fraught 2 hours trying every seat in our car the poor woman finally found one that actually fit properly and off we went into the shopping centre for a day out. I was baked by the sun outside. I had no idea car seat fitting was so complicated.







Here she is in her little seat.........



Lily's last bit of spoiling was her first pair of shoes. (complicated once again) they are called cruisers as she is cruising( walking holding onto things) therefore the shoes must still be very soft and flexible and not too small. her size is a 2 1/2 E. they are the cutest things LOOK.........









Otherwise all is well. We have been away to Lily's nana for the weekend which was nice bar the awful weather we are having.It may shock you but its raining again.


Lily is being a little charmer and has us in stitches. her new game is chasing me around the couch. she squeals with delight when she catches me and then head butts me for some reason. I am of course getting all my exercise this way. who knew crawling was such hard work. she is just so mobile now its frightening but she keeps us well and truly entertained.


On my weight loss front I lost 5 .5 pounds the week before last but stayed the same this week. I have lost over a stone now and am very chuffed. I am finally feeling a little more comfy and my baby belly is shrinking a bit. wow only 9 months for that to start happening


hers a few of the monkey chasing me

I just love those little shoes, and the car seat looks huge for her now compared to her Maxi-cosi hey? Can't wait to see her chasing you, you can see her excitement just in the pictures. I really hope I can get down on my hands and knees by the time you get here so she can chase me too!!!! Mum xxxx
