Sitting Pretty

Erika began to sit a couple of weeks ago and has it totally under control now.
She sits very strong and is beginning to get around by rolling, slithering and commando crawling across the floor.

The pillows behind are just in case :)

She is 7 months old today and is such a happy baby!

Erika finishes daycare tomorrow. Her lovely ladies who look after her at daycare are sad to see her go. I have felt quite guilty taking her out of her daycare centre as the ladies really seem to love looking after her. Who wouldnt! Shes a delight!

From Monday onwards her Nana will be looking after her at home - so she wont have to be woken up early to go to daycare, and wont have to get upset when we get stuck in traffic and she is sick of being in her carseat... A good arrangement for Erika and her mummy too :)

Erika and I shared a bath which she really enjoyed. She was propped in a bath seat so I didnt have to keep my hands on her all the time and we could have a really deep bath. We had fun:

She is trying to copy us now, using her voice and hands to mimic what we do. After a particularly raucous rendition of twinkle twinkle little star tonight Erika was trying to copy the hand movements I had done when I sang the song.
