Dear Alice- Week 38

Dear Alice,

You did something a bit amazing on Saturday. I put you to bed at your usual time, about half 6 ish. And you didn't wake up until 7am the next morning! 7am!!! This gave me the brilliant idea of pushing your entire routine forwards one hour so that perhaps it will happen again! It hasn't, but you are happy to do everything an hour later in the day so perhaps the night will follow soon. What's even better though, is that you don't eat your diner until 6pm which means we can take you out to restaurants and you can eat with mummy and daddy! Amazing!

You are standing up all the time. It's your favourite thing to do, and you are getting better and better at it every day. You can use almost anything, including daddy's legs in the morning! I'm sure it won't be long before you are running around the place! You even crawled up the stairs the other day which made us realise how much we need that stair gate!

Another amazing thing you did this week was WAVE! Seems such a small thing, and I didn't even realise you were doing it at first because I just assumed you would wave back. But then I realised it was the first time and Arghhhhh! I was SO excited! now I do it every time I leave the room for a second just to see you do it back!
