Day Trip to Whitby
Today we went to Whitby as it was forecast a beautiful sunny day and we weren't disappointed. It was glorious and quite warm if not a little windy near the sea. Whitby is Andrews favourite place so he was itching to show Isla all the sights even though she's a bit young to take them all in. Not to worry though I'm sure this will be the first of many visits for her.
We couldn't mange the steps to the Abbey so went down the pier instead, it was quite windy down there but Isla loved it.
It had been the Goth weekend and there were still plenty of Goths wandering around, the outfits are something else and we saw quite a few customised funeral cars parked round and about.
We had a lovely lunch and then wandered back to the car, cheeky Isla pinched my seat for the ride home!
As the clocks have gone back it was getting dark early so Isla and Andrew had one last look at the sea before coming home.

Hey its me again and I've got some new clothes to show you all. I'm getting a big girl now as these are 6 -9 months. Don't I look cool Mummy is well jealous of my wardrobe and I've got loads more stuff I haven't even tried yet.
I like to look good whilst playing with daddy, he says I'm beautiful, is that because everyone tells him I look like him?
I love to stand now I can't manage it on my own just yet, i've still got to work out what crawling is!
Mummy & Daddy can't wait for me to talk & walk and then when I do I bet they tell to me to sit down & shut up! parents eh!

Feeding Time
I've started on solids now so I will grow big and strong. I have tried all kinds of different fruit and vegetables and my favourites so far are mango and green beans (not together!)
I still enjoy my milk but now look forward to trying new things. Today I had a stawberry fromage frais and it was lovely, I eat a full pot all to myself.
It can be a messy business this eating lark and I get most of my dinner round my face, as you can see from the pictures. I love it, its great being a baby I make all this mess and daddy can't tell me off, not like he does mummy if she makes one!

Night Out
After fully recovering from my illness decided a night out was in order. We drafted Grandad Oldfield in to babysit and with our friends Carl & Lousie went to the Aagrah in Leeds under the BBC. Hoped we might see someone famous but we didn't. We did though bump into Andrews cousin Beverly who was out with her work.
We were back for 11 and joined grandad in his 2nd bottle of wine. Isla had been as good as gold and we got her up for her feed, so by 12 it was quite a full house and we were all drinking!
Here are a couple of "before pictures"

Illness Strikes
Apologies for lack of updates on our blog, but disaster has struck! our main editor in chief has not for the first time contracted tonsillitis.
Although this is a blow to family life we have managed to work round it so all tasks are fully allocated ( ie Andrew's doing them!)
The patient is in a sorry state but is cheered to know that whilst she suffers in silence(!) her family are having a bloody ball the other side of the world!
Hopefully normal service will resume, although I fear we will struggle to have anything remotely interesting to report as there is nothing in the diary for this week.
Andrew & Isla remain in good health and Isla is still the most beautiful baby in the world with no exceptions!!

Nan leaving Me!
We went to see Nan yesterday as I won't see her for a long time as she is going to Australia to see Uncle Chalky & Auntie Bek. She says she will miss me but I've seen all the good things they have planned so don't think she will!
Here is a picture of me and my Nan, don't we look lovely. I love my Nan.

This is me smiling at mummy, unlike Grandad & Uncle Chalky I'm a morning person and at my best then. Nan is going to have a good holiday in Australia but I'm going to have fun here and will have lots of new things to show her when she gets back. My daddy says i'm beautiful and I say he's right!
