Bethany's Baby Babblings

Look who's learnt to pull wine bottles of her grandma's wine rack! Although I am disappointed with her choice, August is not the time for mulled wine lass.

monkey got me up at 6.10am and had vomited on me by 7am. However she also fell asleep in my arms and we had a two hour cuddle. So I forgave her. Just about. We spent the day with both sides of the family and it was lovely. The Top 3 Things That Happened: • squidge got me disney DVDs for my present (I'm now up to 27/55 animated features, wahey!) • we gave wiggles a bath and the amount of dirt and fluff in the bath water was well impressive • my grandma put a tea towel over her face and sung the "Streets of Cairo" tune (video below, it's a masterpiece)

We went to visit great-grandma wilkinson today. Wiggles was in a lovely mood and enjoyed cuddles and songs with her (she's been going through a phase of hating women and being a reet tart with the men) Here are some of the songs that daughter, mum, grandma and great-grandma sung; "She is a funny un She's got a face like a pickled onion A nose like a squashed tomato And eyes like two peas!" "Ha ha ha, he he he Baby Ellis up a rhubarb tree!" ...we're expecting a call from an agent to offer us a recording contract anyday now

You've got to start them young! I had a wobble this week which consequently resulted in a big knock in my confidence so a trip to t'pub with my mum and bestie was much appreciated. And the Yorkshire Pudding sandwich that I scoffed was even more appreciated. And what I appreciated the most was that wiggles fell asleep so I could scoff my food in peace. Here you can see my daughter's current bff Dolly, who lives at grandma and grandad's house. Dolly keeps her distracted when changing nappies. Sometimes Dolly isn't enough and we all have a family sing song to Hello Dolly. Grandad Peter does an hilarious impression of Louis Armstrong. I must secretly record it so the world (or my handful of readers) can also experience it.
