November 21st 2006 - Sporty Pickle

Mummy took me swimming on Sunday and we had a great time - I really got into kicking with my legs and splashing about lots with my arms and Mummy even helped me do some jumping in. I swam on my front and my back (and even popped my head under) and made lots of happy noises.

Yesterday Mummy took me to The Little Gym where we did lots of exercises for the 'feet' theme. As well as the usual roly polys I also practised standing holding on to a bar, walking sideways along a balance beam, chasing bubbles in the air, and we also played football with some big soft balls which Mummy helped by holding me near so I could kick out.

As you can see I am getting better and better at sitting up on my own. I still end up off balance and wobble over quite a lot, but day by day am getting better!
