What a week!

They say babies grow so fast. and it's never been more true in the last 6 months as it has been this week.

It was a week of firsts for little Katie. Of course she crawled for the first time. But she did something fantastic for the first time today as well and that was clapping hands! I even managed to get a picture for this blog,

THe other first which isn't great is that she got sick. It started on Tuesday with a cough though she had been coughing a few days previously early in the morning at about 5. That started with a dry cough. Then she started coughing during the day on Tuesday so Gigi took her to see uncle Tom. He said she was fine and there was nothing wrong with her chest,

But on Thursday she got a runny and stuffy nose, and we had to suck the mucous out of her nose cos it was all blocked up. Poor little bunny! So brought her to see uncle TOm and aagain he said there was nothing really wrong with her. But he did give us something to thin the mucous and some nose drops.

I think she's better today. Dominga says she's still got a runny nose but the mucous is watery and coming out. and it doesn't sound like she's coughing much anymore. I've been at work since 12 today and rushed home to see Kate but she'd already gone to sleep at 7. so that's a shame.

We are going to watch the england vs paraguay match at fluid tonight. It's englands first match at the world cup. Heather's there and dave gibbons. Jo and steve dawson. I'm mentioning these people so when I read this blog 100 years from now i'll know who was there when I went to fluid!! haha!!

it's going to be a long month at work with the world cup. But there are the holidays at the end of it all. So something to look forward to.

Oh yeah... another first was Katie's first birthday party. She went with daddy to tomasso's first birthday. I heard she wasn't really in a party mood at first coz she had just woken up, but she warmed up and apparently had fun. Mummy was working that day so she missed it@
