I guess I should be grateful that the big American company Kraft, bought Cadbury’s. It just doesn’t feel the same anymore, just knowing that it’s owned by an American company. I like to think back to the good ol’ days when I took a tour around the Cadbury’s factory in Bournville with the Girl Guides, the best part was the gift shop! Well I won’t hold it against Kraft, I heard people were blaming the British Government for not stepping in to help Cadbury’s out.
Drew likes to surprise me with a Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut bar every once in a while. The other day he took Poppy for a walk in her pushchair and came back in saying “Poppy has something for you under her blanket, take a look”.

On Sunday it was nice and warm so we went out for lunch at Noodles & Company. These days Poppy does not sit still for a second and you have to find ingenious ways to keep her entertained. I took some food for her to eat while we were eating but she wasn’t interested in it, she wanted what we were having so I gave her a piece of my pesto pasta and she loved it! She ended up sucking and chewing on three pieces!

I think its fair to say that Poppy comes from a musical family even though its only her Granddad and Aunty Sally who currently pick up their instruments at least once a week. So we thought we’d introduce Poppy to her first musical instrument early. Let the records show that Poppy played her first note on the piano at almost 8 months old, haha! And she took to it so well that she was even singing along by the end of it. We’ll get her playing some Mozart soon just for her Grandad.
"La La La"
"Yeaaaaaaah"

Yesterday it finally felt real that I’m now a Registered Nurse. This arrived in the post. And tomorrow I go to buy scrubs to start my new job next week. Click on the photo to enlarge it.

Poppy’s Grandma kindly bought her a cart cover recently and the other day we used it for the first time. Thank you Granny C, Poppy can be a big girl now and sit in the cart and enjoy looking around at all the people instead of being strapped up in her car seat.
When I look at these photos I realise how big Poppy is getting and how fast she is growing up 
I like to wiggle!

Today was lovely and sunny and not too cold so Poppy and I went for a little walk to the park just up our road. It’s called Taylor Street Park and it’s really cute. It’s very new so all the playground stuff still looks nice. There’s a sandpit too with diggers you can sit on and scoop up the sand. Poppy and I only went on the swings and the slide because we really needed Daddy there with us to go on the other things but he wasn’t feeling well today so we left him on the sofa.
