Sweet Kissy-Face

In the last few months Fiona has been getting friendlier and friendlier. We do a lot of activities with other children and she seems to really enjoy visiting family and when people come over. She's also become particularly attached to her monkey toy. Today she has the cold, and she was having trouble getting to sleep, and whenever I'd go into her room she'd be clutching monkey, all damp and sticky from being used to wipe her snotty face. Monkey puts up with a lot...

In addition to these things, she's also definitely grasped the concept of kissing. When we visited Chicago we found it pretty entertaining to ask her and Sophie to kiss, and they were mostly happy to oblige...


Fiona will kiss Ben, particularly at bedtime, and occasionally me. She also thinks it's funny to have us kiss her monkey, and hilarious when Brodie kisses* her...

*Licks her in the mouth.

She rarely spontaneously gives kisses, but today she was playing with Monkey and mini-Monkey and decided they should kiss. It might have been the cutest thing I've ever seen, she was so pleased with herself. At first she was having them kiss face to face, but by the time I got the camera Mini-Monkey was being kissed on the back of the head...


Then Monkey had to give Fiona some kisses too...


Awww so cute!

And just for bonus cuteness... check out these eyelashes. Are they not the most ridiculous things you've ever seen? I thought so...


Sweet, sweet girl!

I think it's very amusing that she kisses the dog and the stuffed toys but is sparing with her kisses for you! She is very cute.

Do you think she'll have kisses for Grandma and Grandpa?

Hi Mum, it is amusing... and sad! I ask her for a kiss and she says 'no' and turns her head away!

Hi Grandma, I think your chances are much better than mine, but not as good as Brodie's... doesn't that make you feel good ;-)
