Isla Baby at ONE!

Oh Isla, Isla, Isla. One once seemed so so far away. And I dreaded the day. It made me anxious. I wanted you to be a baby forever. Well the big 'One' finally came. And I tell ya, it ain't all that bad. Of course you're still my baby but you're a whole lot more fun!

We had a small affair for your birthday, you're a very lucky girl and share it with you Great Nanny (my Nan), so we shared the morning with her, and Nanny Wendy (my Mum). In the afternoon you got to see your Nanny Debbie, Pappy, Great Nanny Pat and Great Granddad Des! Luckily you were on top form all day and were in the party spirit!

Give me that cake!

Since then you've learnt to walk! A bit like a little drunk robot! But 3 weeks later and you're perfecting it. You like to climb on the coffee table & Flynn's bed, rather annoying might I add. Your favourite toys are Flynn's case for his DS, you carry it like a little handbag. Little animals, you like to tip them out of the tin and look at the one by one and stick them all in your mouth. Flynn's puzzles and playing cards, yes another annoying one, when will you learn to tidy them up after?! And your baby doll, poor thing gets bitten all over!

You're still a happy little bean and a pleasure to watch. You adore Flynn and he you. Although you still like to bite him for reasons unknown to anyone, but we're working on that. You make your self laugh, you like to clap, wave and dance. You're also a little vicious though, we all often get the odd slap, grab or poke. Your favourite foods are spag bol, chilli, noodles, broccoli and watsits! You're not keen on cows milk and I think our breastfeeding journey isn't quite over. You had you're first (and last, I hope!) visit to A&E when you had a reaction to egg, which you were thoroughly enjoying! And you've got 6 little teeth and I'm sure the 7th is trying to rear it's ugly head. 

Yes, you like to eat!

I wanted your first year to last forever but life after one must go on! You're a little love that's for sure but please learn to love sleep! So one turns out to be quite fun...what will the next few months bring?!
