roundish blocks where I want them!

Snuffy at nearly 21 months old. I can't believe she got into the bath right in front of me she leaned over and sort of rolled in and then sat up and looked at me as if I had a problem!! lol. She hates getting out, so when I did get her out, Bruce came running because of the noise she made.

After coming home from Auntie Dinnar's, Reyvyn went to the cupboard, got herself a bowl, then got a spoon, then opened the cupboard and got out the weet bix and put one in her plate. She put the bowl and spoon on the bench near her high chair. She pulled her chair over so she could reach the food, climbed up onto the chair, then grabbed the bowl and started eating!! Funny girl, and obviously hungry!!
