Well what to report about Harriet?Food (in the form of solids) has been continuing. She has eaten zucchini, tofu, green beans, baked beans, broccoli, tomato, bread, Vegemite, rusks, apple, pear, natural yoghurt, avocado. I can't think of all of the stuff she's had just now, but that's most of it. Her faves have definitely been the pears and yoghurt, although grilled tomato was such a hit that we had to grill about three tomatoes one morning just to keep up with her!
Play lately involves a whole lot of turning things over. We're not too sure what it is about this girl, but whenever she's given a toy (or any object really) she immediately wants to turn it upside down to play with it! Weirdo. Her favourite toy is definitely the 'croc' and the activity board that Grandma got her for Christmas. She also is fascinated by tags - any toy that has a tag on it has its immediate use waylaid whilst she plays with the tag for hours on end.
Milestones - well she is standing with support (albeit minimal) all the time, in fact she gets mighty cranky if there's time when she's not standing! There's also a lot of rocking whilst propped up on all fours, so she may be moving on the ground sometime soon, although we have been thinking that for a while now. Her top tooth on the right has popped through the gum too, so she's going to have an interesting 'fang' look for a while - I'm hoping to get some pretty good photos of that smile while it lasts.
We went to the baby & kids market the other week and bought a cool toy that turns, makes noise and basically encompasses everything a baby could need. Here she is enjoying it with Papa Jimbo - check out that look of amazement!
And here she is looking cute as ever when we went to the Buddha Birthday celebrations in downtown Perth. It was boiling hot and in typical Perth manner there was not a skerrick of shade to be found anywhere on the grounds. Harriet was fine though until the guy talking over the loudspeaker talked just a little TOO loudly, making her jump out of her skin and start wailing, just as everyone was lining up in a solemn manner. *grin*
And just in case anyone out there doubted her standing ability, this is a shot of her in typical stand up mode - trying to look into/over whatever it is she's holding onto. Weirdo.
Gotta run, we are running late for her next chiro appointment. See you later!

Of course your cat has learnt to open doors. She's definitely the spawn of Satan. One of these days you'll be lulled into thinking she's just a normal, happy little kitten and then POW she'll strike! Even locked doors won't hold her back!
Still trying to get a good fang shot of Harry for you, never fear. Oh and am also wanting to chat about what's happening at the clinic, but am swamped atm. Barely able to keep up the blog but will be in Sydney next week so will talk then.
