So now, finally, I have a few minutes. Adele is sleeping on my lap, and I have until I accidentally elbow her in the head to make this post.
Having my Mum visit was wonderful. We had a lot of fun. One day we visited the Children's museum... Fiona had lots of fun doing all her favorite things...
Sliding...
Looking at stuff...
Doing some very serious shopping... she refused to smile, she was very busy.
And one of her all-time favorite things... drying her hands!
They also had some cute rats to pet. Fiona really liked this, and even gave the rat that was still in his box a kiss...
We had a lot of fun, and the girls were so tired that they both fell asleep on the way home...
We had a lovely time with Granny!
Since she left we've been working and going to daycare and hanging out with our friends. It's getting warmer so we've been spending more time outside. Adele has been sleeping well about 3 nights a week and poorly for the other 4, and usually refuses to nap unless someone holds her the whole time. Occasionally we manage to put her down, but for this to be successful we need to turn her into a baby burrito first...
Notice that she still has one eye just a little bit open to make sure we're not getting too relaxed. As soon as she notices we're trying to watch tv or maybe eat dinner she wakes right up. Keeps us on our toes!
Fiona's newest obsession is planes, buses and trains. Whenever we go out in the car she starts yelling for them, and when she spots one she gets more excited than I thought was possible. She spots planes that are just tiny specks in the sky and announces very loudly "PLANE!! UP HIGH!!". It's really funny.
She recently discovered a book we have about trains. Here's a video of her reading it with Daddy. It makes me smile.
And yes, she's kissing the trains. I don't know where this desire to kiss things came from, but I sincerely hope it doesn't extend to boys at daycare. Better keep our eyes on this one...

Fiona certainly is a charmer! I love the twinkle in her eye as she dries her hands. She'll be so excited when we arrive by plane and then take the train to your house. Transportation is so much fun!
It must be the age- Audrey's kissing everything too! And taken notice of the sky as well, particularly the moon and planes. Good thing you and I live near the airport, huh?
This makes me really look forward to when Aubrey is Fiona's age! She's just starting to interact with me and it's so much fun already, even though all she really does is smile. Sometimes. I love the picture of them both in the car seats.
Baby Burrito Adele and Fiona kissing the trains are the cutest things ever! x
Hi Tanya! She'll be really excited. I need to have a train adventure with her soon.
Hi Kate! It is lucky. We took a walk yesterday and she spotted a plane every single time one took off. And they take off at least every minute!
Hi Hazel! It's so fun to interact with them!
Hi Michelle! I totally agree ;-)
