Another happy day

Another very happy day after a great night (just one grizzle around 10pm which he sorted out himself). We had a happy morning, playing on the bed and around the bed and then a good breakfast before going for his morning nap.

Once up we headed off to Asda to pick up some cakey things (Vera wanted to make some cup cakes with me), then to Wyevale to pick up some vegetable plants (never got round to sowing some seeds this year) and then the golf club for lunch. Tom finished off his pasta from yesterday and as you can see from the video, made a right mess.



We came home, Tom had a nap and we made lemon cup cakes (experimented again today. Put some lemon curd in the middle as a 'suprise' which worked well). We also made some daisies to put on them. Matt got back from Scotland around 3pm and looked suprisingly well for someone who had riden through rain, hail, fog and snow to get home.

Vera got out a walker that Julie had given her for Tom when he woke up and we took him outside with it. He LOVED it, it is much lighter than the trolley he has been using, meaning that he was able to steer it around obstacles. He spent quite a while on it and was very pleased with himself.

After an OK dinner we retired to the lounge for a pre bath play. Tom did some freestyle walking and managed longer and longer lengths, by the end he was doing about 6 paces, but more importantly than that, he was able to recorrect his balance during his walks without falling over which I think is a huge improvement. A couple of times he even changed direction, deciding to walk to Vera rather than Matt.

He was an absolute charmer for the whole day, he was full of hugs and grins. Even gave Vera a spontaneous hug, which I think she really enjoyed. Think the teething is over for a while :)
