Emma the Explorer
[Written 9 January 2014]
The first few days of the year were mostly quiet. Here’s Emma at the tree gate on 1 January: (6 images total)
I aaaalmost caught her in the act of fiddling with the decorations.
On the second day of the year she got lucky when she managed to dislodge the lower dish-washing-machine rack – and promptly pushed around the kitchen.
Must all children do this? Yeees, apparently!
“Hmmm… are there any more…?”
“YES!”
The biggest forward step in baby care since the other two were wee ones have to be these food-pouches. They’re sooo convenient, the kids can suck their own food (mostly fruits, although some veggies are available) at their own speed, and you don’t need a spoon if you’re on the go. Brilliant!

Another fun thing Emma enjoys doing is fiddling with the big volume knob on our sound system amplifier. Thankfully, it’s a bit stiff, so she doesn’t blast her ears off (although that’s certainly happened). These days she also tends to turn the volume down and not so much up. (Photo taken 8 January)
