10 months... the countdown to 1 year is on!

She's a strange one this kid - for a while now she has had a fascination with mirrors. Understandable I guess; they can be pretty fun. But a week or so ago I walked in to find her getting pretty up close and personal with one! Apparently they taste pretty good! So does marmite (still) - yes, unbelievably some does actually get in her mouth!

She adores her time in her swing, and has now well and truly got the hang of it (scuse the pun) so likes to be swung up really high (I think we've bred an adrenalin junky).

She's also a frightful mimic, meowing when Mia (our cat) talks to us, echoing the local fire station siren and repeating the sound of the electric saw from the house being built across the road. She also started yelling every time the dentist drill started up - I'm sure the dentist lost several clients simply because of the noise coming from the surgery while she was in there!

I think these trousers pretty much say it all when it comes to our Ruby-doo!! She's crawling everywhere and has a well developed sense of curiosity.

We took her to the park the other day for her first try on a see-saw and a slide - a great success judging by the beam on her face the entire time!
