New shoes!! Jess has her first pairs of shoes now that she is walking everywhere! We've also put the highchair into the attic, so Jess sits next to Amy on a booster.

Words we think we've heard to date, Up, There, Grandad, Out....

Yummy Sand

today Jess had her first proper experience of a beach!! She ate so much sand - and then with sun cream all over her, including her hair - Jess decided to roll in the sand, becomming a sand baby!!!!


Jess then had a go at driving- this is her second cousin Ollie's car - we are currently on holiday in Poole Dorset staying at Ollie, Jude and Mark's house whilst they are in France. Amy and Jess had fun playing in the garden this afternoon, enjoying all his toys!

Teeth, words and horses!!

Last friday after taking Jess in the pushchair to take Amy to school, putting her down for a sleep, taking her back in pushchair to collect Amy, taking her to the park - I only then found a plastic horse in her trousers!! Been there the whole time, not 100% sure how it got there although I did put her in new trousers just before leaving the house and she was standing playing with the farm, so guess that is when it happened. Must have been so uncomfortable!!

Jess has now said the word bib in response to Mummy saying bib, bang in response to dropping something, she also says Up, Mummy and Duck.

Jess has a her 5th tooth now, she is so good at getting them we generally have one night where she wakes crying, sometimes a bit if nappy rash too.

A couple of days ago - Jess made the 'universal' uh-oh/doh sign!! when she took off her bib and I noticed, saying Jessica where is your bib, she very cutely put her hand over her mouth, as if to say 'uh-oh' she knew what she had done!!!

Jess also waves and blowes kisses when someone goes. She also often crawls up to you and gives you a cuddle and kiss.

Jess is now walking more and more - she can walk up to 8 steps before falling over - so cute!

Walking....

Saturday 2 July 2011



On Monday Jessica along with Amy, Mummy and Granny went to Cotswold Farm Park, this was Jessica's second visit, last year she slept most of the time!  Jess pointed at lots of animals, squealed when she saw them but then hid behind my leg when they got too close! We ate a lot of sand too in the sandpits!



Jess is pointing a lot! She is chatting lots too, starting to say things such a UP, Mummy, Daddy etc
