Daily Ada: 13 February 13

A trip to the garden center. Now every time we go Ada wants to get a muffin. She loves the muffin.

Daily Ada: 10 February 13

We were at the soft play at Puxton Park and for the first time Ada decided she wanted to traverse the rope bridge. She was doing well, but then got a little freaked out by a little silent boy who was following her around who followed quite closely on the bridge. But I had her puppy and I threw it ahead of her to get, so that gave her the motivation to keep going abs we all made it, unscathed, to the other side!

Weekly Ada: end of January 2014

A few pictures I've been slow to post. It's been cold! 

Daily Ada: 25 January 14

Ada was having a little bit of trouble settling for a nap. We heard some thumps so knew she was pulling some books off her bookshelf, while in bed (she can just about reach). Then we looked and saw that she had fallen asleep, cradling one of her books.

UK birthday: two years old.

Unveiling the kitchen. (A half Christmas/half birthday present).

This is a short film Ada loves and they happened to have this at Heathrow.

We were grateful to John for doing the box rides so we didn't have to!

A craft project: Ada's stocking.

I decided to make a stocking for Ada this year, partly to try out my lovely new sewing machine, which was a birthday present.

Since I'm a procrastinator, I only started this week. Fortunately, it turned out to be not too hard. Will add her name at some point - possibly even in time for this Christmas!
