There has been crochet... honest....

Ive been too tired in the evenings to get my crochet out... usually that bad that I am going to bed the moment Paddy is snoozing!

Paddy and I haven't been sleeping too well in all this heat... Well Paddy hasn't... But it is me that gets up to tend to her at night... and she is definitely practicing for the terrible 2s....

 

Anyways.... some PRETTY DRESS pictures and all round GORGEOUS little girl pictures....

apologies that they are a little muddled

 

Snoozing.... the comforts of cat napping in baby form

see how she nuzzled as close to mummy as physically possible... and drops off from stare mode so DIGNIFIED    (laughs)

yummy first go at CHOW MAIN... she wanted to eat it with hands... I suppose that way she can eat it in her own steam....  spoons,  forks and food still end up on the floor 

Snoozing in  her pretty butterfly dress...  There was a nice cool breeze just at the right angle for her to enjoy... was too hot all day

 

Faith has a thing for mummy's teddies....  here is two about to get PILLAGED.. poor Bertie gets got too (nana Margaret's teddy)...  "why do you want mummy's teddies?  you have pleanty of your own!"

Ready to pop to shops... sun cream on and in her NEW BUGGIE... the other one is too big for me to carry up and down the stairs..

Yesterday! little monkey and myself having a right giggle before bed...  Ticke monster and "funny words" setting her off into a giggle fit like ....

corn on the cob

Foxy lady

Bolderdash

stinky feet (as you pretend to smell her feet and go) POOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

PooPoo Platter (as in sushi)

a few others too

 

oh and small impersonations of DROP DEAD FRED....

 

I'm not a slave driver, Honest!

she has her own pink cloth for when mummy is cleaning... so she can "help".

I hadn't long finished washing the insides of the windows, Paddy thought they weren't clean enough obviously...

MMMMMM   ice lolly, though  still finds it too cold to have one for herself.. this was her 3rd try this summer.

Paddy and her new friend ELMER causing mischief with wires behind the coffee table....  little monster

sitting, checking emails and playing a sneaky game of tetris ... I suddenly grew an extra head.

I remaned myself... Zaphod Beeblebrox for all you hitch hikers guide to the galaxy fans out there

And here she is playing in her dress MUM (manxgirl) bought when she was here in Brum in January... what a fight to get her out of the dress and into a vest for bed...

 

 

so there we go   a little photo catch up....

 

Im off to finnish the dishes and make myself a cuppa whilst paddy snoozes
