Joe's day of Baptism

Joe I heard you had a great day for your Baptism, I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

I'm really starting to enjoy being held up in the air, giving me a chance to kick my feet out, one in front of the other like a little soldier.




As for this chatting it was time for a change, now I'm forever blowing bubbles, pretty bubbles in the air.

And just as a marker, that second tooth is on the way I can feel it.

9 months today clap clap away

The ball pool is great, I was excited when I saw it first, then it became a little hard to figure out, but now, now I love it.




You know what else I enjoy, watching Rosie and Buzz, playing with the ball out the back, they jump, skip, and hop all over each other, I just cannot wait until I can get down there too! For the moment I'll just clap in excitment at their antics, hey my first real clap, brillant now I know what that's for.

Engaged at the Engagement

In the Rising Sun today, and I got a great chance to raise a glass in celebration of Bob and Aoifes engagement, although in this picture I'm still looking for that glass, Lar Gilmartin have you got it?

Red Checks, First Tooth

It's been coming but today, I got my first tooth, everyone seems so proud of me it's great, teeth must be something special? As it so happens my ear has been killing me for a couple of weeks now, so I know Mam has been watching and sure enough today she confirmed, a itty pitty tooth is showing through, as you can see from the photo my checks are really red after the breakthrough.




And with my first tooth comes my first toothpaste!

Mam you're such a tickler!

A Baby is . . .
A baby is cuddles and tickles on toes,
the sweet scent of powder, a kiss on the nose!
A baby is teddy bears, rattles, and pins,
meals at midnight...giggles and grins.

What a reunion at the holy communion

It was cousin Ciaras' first holy communion today, and here in this picture I'm with Sinead and Patrick C. I also got to me Patrick D, Stephen D, numerous Aunties and Uncles what a day.

Forward, forward, back, back

Today I finally got some time outside of the house, in my walker, and I've manged the going Forward and Backward, while also taking a drink, which has really surprised Mam and Dad.
I was also back at the playground where I watched with interest all those kids playing around me, man I want to get going!!

Ma Ma, Ma Ma what a ball pool.

I know I mentioned my first words a while back but this talking lark is great! Ma Ma is my favourite.

And remember I mentioned the ball pool for over 5's in leisure zone last week , well this week guess what arrived at our house, a great big Ball Pool, which Mam tells me can double up as a paddling pool in the summer, two for the price of one, brillant! As for advise when playing in the paddling pool I would listen to Dr. Kate.

Bank Holiday leisure zone.
Bit of rainy day today so no park, but then there's the next best thing, the baby zone at leisure zone. I really didn't know what to play with, kids whizzing here there and everywhere, for today I just scoped things out, just get a lay of the land, but next time, I'm going for the ball pool!

In the attached movie that's me playing high five with Mam.
