My Christening!

When I got up yesterday morning I knew something funny was going on. Firstly, I had a bath in the morning and normally I have one at night. Mummy said I had to be extra clean and smart. Secondly, I didn't get dressed straightaway. Mummy said she didn't want me to get dirty! As if! Thirdly, daddy was wearing his suit but he wasn't going to work. Fourthly, Jess brushed my hair about 10 times.

Mummy and daddy had got me a new dress which was white and very pretty. I also had some knickers to cover up my nappy! There was also a hat but I wasn't so keen on that. Apart from anything it messed up my hair and Jess had just brushed it (again!). Then we got into the car and daddy drove us to church. Jess ran off to go and ring the bells and then I spotted Auntie Helen and Uncle Jim and my Uncle David, Auntie Angela with Thomas and Charlotte. That was a bit weird as they don't normally come to our church. I wondered what was going on.

Anyway we got into church and saw lots more people and then Olivia came over and said hello to me. We sat at the front which was another unusual thing as we normally sit at the back! My Auntie Nicky (who isn't really my auntie but I like to pretend she is!) arrived and then Uncle Andy and Auntie Claire with Mollie and Baby Grace. They sat at the front with daddy, mummy and I. When Jess had finished ringing her bells she sat with us too.

The service started and Olivia said something about me which was quite nice. I sat with daddy for a while then his arms started aching so I sat with mummy too.

After a while Olivia asked us to stand up round a bowl. It was quite pretty and I liked looking at it. Olivia asked mummy and daddy what my name was. That was strange because she knows me very well! They said it was Amelia Grace - normally that's what I'm called when I'm being a pickle! Olivia said some words and then she asked Jess to help her pour some water from a really big jug into the bowl. Jess was good at helping! Then I went and had a cuddle with Olivia and she poured some water over my head! That was good fun but I was a bit worried that Jess would be cross about my hair getting messed up! I tried to wriggle and get INTO the bowl as I thought that would be good to splash in but Olivia held me tightly! Then Olivia made a cross on my head and Mummy and daddy and Jess and Auntie Nicky and Auntie Claire and Uncle Andy all dipped their fingers into the water and made a cross on my head too. It all felt very special.

Next, Auntie Nicky lit a candle for me and then everybody in the church gave me a big clap! Daddy took me for a walk round the church and lots of people wanted to see me! A little bit later I had some milk and fell asleep for a little while. After the end of the service I woke up and some people took some photos of me and my family and I had lots of cuddles with people.

Then we got back into the car and went to a golf course where we had a little party! I had lots more cuddles and somebody had made a special cake with my name on. I had a little piece of it and it was very nice!

When we got home I went for a long sleep as I was very tired. Mummy and daddy were right - it was a very busy day!

A busy weekend!

This weekend was a bit busy! On Saturday mummy and Jess were very busy doing cleaning and daddy cleaned his car and did some gardening! I was busy playing with my toys and making a mess!

In the afternoon I went for a nap as usual and when I woke up there were lots of people in our house! Auntie Claire and Uncle Andy and Mollie and Baby Grace had come to visit! Mollie is a bit like Jess except she runs around more and is very noisy. Baby Grace is much more like me and we had fun crawling around together and sharing my toys. Grace even sat on my lap. I tried to push her off but she got off anyway. I think she might have cried if I'd sat on her lap!

A bit later on Auntie Helen and Uncle Jim came round which was good. I was really kind and let Grace use my highchair to have her tea and in return she let me finish off her yogurt as she was a bit full up. Soon I was very tired and needed to go to bed. Mummy and daddy said I had another busy day to come. I hoped that meant more playing with Mollie and Grace but I wasn't sure what was going on!

Leave me a comment!

Mummy has fixed something so you can leave me comments even if you're not registered. Hurrah! Clever mummy!

I can move!

Well actually I've been able to move for a while but today I crawled for the first time. I was trying to get to Jess's slipper!

The other day I surprised Mummy and Daddy by pulling myself up on the coffee table!

I'm becoming a right little monkey!

Did you miss me?

I'm sorry - I've been very busy lately so I haven't written in here for ages!

I am now nearly 7 months old and I can sit up really well! I now have 2 little teeth on my bottom gum and they are very useful for biting toast! I eat most things now - I love pasta and mummy's lentil and vegetable bake.

It was half term last week which meant Jess was home all week - yippee! We had lots of fun including my first swimming trip (I did BIG splashes!) and a trip to Bekonscot.
