I had a great time at Cape St Francis. The aeroplane was fun. I looked at the mountain when we took off but fell asleep as we landed in PE. Everybody on the plane was very friendly. Saw granny , grandpa and uncle Howard. We all went to St Francis. Daddy , grandpa and uncle Howard played golf and fished . I went to the beach a few times. It was great fun. The water was nice. We drove to PE early on Monday morning then to the airport via granny /grandpa. I fell asleep as we took off and only woke up as we landed in Cape Town. I think I am getting a top tooth now. Swimming lessons tomorrow again.

My second tooth is here at last! I am flying off to visit granny, grandpa and uncle Howard on Friday and going to St Francis again. It will be the first time on an aeroplane for me. I went for my first swimming lesson yesterday . Great fun. Had my first taste of a lamb chop today. Yum!

As you can see by the photo I still have only 1 tooth.Still not crawling but love to walk. I bumshuffle around the kitchen and love unpacking the tupperware cupboard . Had a measles shot 2 days ago and am going for my first swimming lesson tomorrow. I am 76 cm tall and 10.85 kg. I am on about the 75 percentile for my age!

Hi there. 8 months and 3 weeks old tomorrow. Made a hell of a mess splashing in the bath tonight. Then decided I had had enough, grabbed the rail on the side , pulled myself to standing position and demanded to be picked up , dried off and carried off for pyjamas etc. Saw Ouma and Oupa today when they got back from Uganda.

I am now 8.5 months old! I have 1 bottom tooth and boy is it sharp. I am starting to walk with a bit of help from my folks. I like playing with all my toys especially Teddy, Franky and Toby. Bath time is good fun though I hate getting undressed and dressed again. I am still getting "swimming lessons " in the jacuzzi from dad but am starting proper swimming lessons next month. I have a new car seat now as the picola was getting to be a bit of a sqeeze. I am now 11 kg's . My day starts at about 6 o clock when I wake up. Dad picks me up and takes me through to his bed where I spend the next hour "chatting". Then I have to wave dad off as he goes to work. I have breakfast and then a snooze @ 9h30 for about 45 minutes, lunch, play, another snooze @ 14h30, more play supper, bath @ 18h45 and then bedtime. I am learning to brush my tooth. I have outgrown a lot of my clothes already. Yesterday I waved for the first time. I laughed like crazy when dad chopped the wood for the braai.
