A week of firsts

This has been a week of firsts.

First cold.  Which resulted in first sleepless night (couldn't get back to sleep after night feed, so Scotty took her out in the sling to sleep upright and help breathing through runny nose), first calpol and first missed baby group (we have gone to every one since November apart from one in February when we were in U.K.)

First 'dad day.' I had to work so Scott had the day off to look after Leila. A shame that she was so poorly that neither of them could enjoy it much! Scotty reported that she would start crying if he moved away from her.

First clonk from her toddling around. Her favourite thing at the moment is walking whilst we break our backs bending doen to hold her hands and walk behind her.  Her first clonk was with me on the bookcase.   Her second clonk, and first bruise, was with Scott on the coffee table.

First proper poo.  She is going to be mad at us when she is oldet because of how much we spoke about her poo!

First sit up from  lieing down.  She did this a dozen times for Scott befor I witnessed it! She gets herself onto her front, then onto her side, then gradually folds herself in two and pushes up with her hands.
First sit up from lieing down in her cot.  I discovered that she'd rather learn how to do this than have a nap this afternoon when I went in and found her sitting at the foot of the cot with her arm on the rail.  Needless to say we had lowered the cot to its lowest position within 30 minutes if this discovery!

Exciting times!  What will next week bring?!
