Wave!

I decided it was high time Hannah started waving so i have been waving her hand for her for the past couple of days which she thought was pretty funny, she is so cheeky she has a lovely smile and sense of humour and loves to rough house.


So anyway i was doing the usual night-time routine tonight and made her wave to her daddy then we say goodnight to the other Hannah in the mirror on the way upstairs and her hand moved a bit, so we went back to Daddy and i said "Wave goodnight to Daddy" and without any help at all she did a perfect wave!!
Just to check if it was a fluke we went to wave to Emily and again a perfect wave! She was very pleased with herself hehe

LGI 4 month post op checkup

We went to LGI today for Hannahs checkup appointment and as per usual she was a little star, she is very comfortable in the endless coridors and was riding side saddle in her pram so she could laugh at her daddy and make click clock noises in the roof of her mouth and entertained anyone who would watch in the lifts hehe.


She had to have a routine chest x-ray and we had a sit down with the doctor and he is super pleased with her recovery and progress. She has now been discharged from LGI and her 6monthly follow ups will be at Dewsbury with her original team under the care of Dr Brown.

10th-12th Sept Gail & Kirstie Visit

This weekend Gail and Kirstie came to visit for the weekend, Unfortunatly Daddy was at work so we couldnt go out and do much but on the Friday we decided to take off to Tropical World at Roundhay.  I decided it was a good idea to leave Hannah with Nan as Emily has been attention seeking lately and the one on one time would do her good, besides as we was all going in Gails car there was no room to take her.

Emily had a wonderful time! It was lovely to see the butterfly section was packed with butterflys for a change and she always loves visiting her favorites the Meercats.

Afterwards we decided even thought it was pretty cold to have a walk through the park to the swings.  I had bought Emily a small bug catcher from the gift shop so we were on the lookout for mini-beasts.

We played around at the play area for a while while the grownups had a hot chocolate from the ice-cream van then walked back to the car.  Just as we got back to the path to the carpark i spotted some Ladybird Lavea on a leaf so we collected them up and took them home although i didnt rate their chances of survival much.

When we got back i went in to check on her straight away and Nan reported that she had been good as gold as usual.

Hannah really likes Kirstie, and she loves to make Gail laugh by cocking her head to the side and playing peepo which is mega sweet!


On Sunday we all went out for tea at the Waky Warehouse which is Hannahs first visit to a restaurant and a soft play area. She sat up at the table in her high-chair and tried carrot and cucumber, it went really well, she loved playing with the balls in the soft play area and her favorite was the bendy mirror which she sat playing infront of for ages. Unfortunatly all that fun backfired when she was a bit sicky on her dress whoops!

Its been a long time since i braved such a place with Emily but it turned out to be a great time to go as it was late on most people had been and gone already so after our meals we went down for a play.  Emily took off straight away into the big kids section but after about 5 mins she burst out crying so i had to leave Hannah propped in the baby bit and race up to find out what was wrong with Emily.  Thankfully she had just scared herself and gotten a bit disorientated, with the way she yelled i thought she had broken an arm or something!

So she re-joined me Hannah Gail and Kirstie in the baby bit and played in the ball-pit.  She is now hooked to Waky Warehouse!!
