48/52

It’s week 48 and we are not so ready for the Christmas holidays yet! 
This week you:
  • Made us deal with some temper tantrums for the first time and we didn’t do so well. But we are learning on the go here, and after lots of reading we think we can handle it better next time.
  • Loved playing and jumping with all the fallen leaves.
  • Added new words to your vocabulary, and we have now stopped counting them. But we love when you say: “batti no”, meaning “ciabatte (slippers) no”.
  • Were very cuddly and loved watching some tv sitting on our laps.

It’s week 47 and getting closer to the holidays! This week has been hard with me not feeling well, dad feeling tired and you catching a cold again. But we survived, and even managed a quick trip to the playground.

This week you:

  • discovered vibrations are fun, and spend lots of time banging on the tray of your highchair to make the nuts jumping and going around.
  • gave me a kiss on my belly when I told you I had a stomachache.
  • loved loved loved waiting for dad to come home in the evening. You got all excited waiting for him at the window and then rushing down the stairs to surprise him behind the front door!
  • Have been down with a cold again. But you have been very brave in taking all the medicines you were prescribed, even that cough syrup which tasted horribly.

It’s week 46 and I still love this project! This week we were back home and our life went back to its daily routine.
This week you:
  • Asked to join in every time your dad and I kissed and/or hugged each other. We love family hugs and kisses.
  • Had a play date with your little friends and finally started to sort of play with each other. We have been been waiting for this moment since you all were born.
  • Refused to sing happy birthday to papa (didn’t even let me do it!) but loved blowing the candles of his birthday cake.
  • Loved lying down next to me after waking up in the morning and putting your arm around my neck. And I looooove it!
And from last week, I love this little dancer from Woven with Spirit. What a beautiful scenery to enjoy.

It’s week 45 and it’s only 4 weeks away from your 2nd birthday! We spent the week in Central Italy visiting your grandparents and as usual, time went by too quickly.

This is you in your grandad’s vegetable patch, apple tasting. 
This week you:

  • Asked to play with the dog all day long. It was your first thought in the morning and the last in the evening.
  • Had a temperature for two days and a candida infection, but you did brilliantly, except for one night where you woke up screaming several times and only felt asleep in mama’s arms watching some tv.
  • Visited the local playground and loved it. On top of playing with the seesaw, sling and slide you collected lots of leaves to carry around.
  • Went out almost everyday for a walk with your cousin’s bike. As soon as you were on it, you adjusted the mirrors and put the music on.
  • Got a new pair of shoes and still trying to figure out how to put them on.
  • Had a go at blowing bubbles. We ended up with no bubbles and a very soapy grass.
And from last week, I love this little red head from Ellieboo. Doesn’t she look like a top model in the back stage of a catwalk?

44/52

It’s week 44 already! In a month time you’ll be turning two, and we are so not ready for this yet! Although I wonder if we ever will.
This is you with your papa walking around his hometown

This week you:

  • Loved singing all day long! not sure what tune it is, but it’s awesome.
  • Kept waking up in the early morning asking for milk. But after shsss-ing you, you went back to sleep. Hoorray!
  • Asked for Becca, your teacher, every single day. But when we asked you if you wanted to go to nursery you said no.
  • Had your afternoon nap around 2pm, as usual, on Thursday and missed the nursery’s halloween party.
  • Hugged and kissed your grandma at the airport and didn’t leaver alone, not even for a second. Even asked for her when you woke up during the night asking for water!

And from last week, I love Maile, the sleeping beauty from See You There. So calm and peaceful, there is nothing worth more than a visit to this blog!
