Dearest Posie – You Are Six Months Old!

Dearest Posie,

At 6 months you astound us having learned to crawl already. Simply amazing! Although it was a bit of a nightmare when you crawled over to Gram’s dishwasher and got your foot stick in a gap in the plinth between the door and the floor. The fire brigade came to rescue you, called you the sweetest damsel and said you had the most lovely smile. They asked if you were always smiling, this bonnie baby they called you. I said yes, when you’re being held by me and don’t have your foot stuck somewhere!

You snuggle into me when someone new says hello to you which is super sweet but the shyness doesn’t last longer than a few seconds before you please everyone with your beaming smile. All the old ladies are so pleased to see you on your tummy in the pram, which we have just switched to a seat until and I will miss seeing your head peek out of the bassinet like that but I’m sure the old lady love will continue as you are the most gorgeous baby always ready to smile.

You tried some food, a little bit of fruit with a suck on a strawberry and another on watermelon and satsuma and so far you don’t seem too offended by it.

The biggest smiles are given for your brothers and you love Florence like another Mummy I think as you look to her in most rooms.

You still hate the car and you now rarely nap unless on me while feeding. So… It’s a good job you only wake up 3 or 4 times in the night. Ha ha. We are mega tired but never minding because how could we when you’re so much fun! And so lovely.
