We had the pleasure of enjoying the pre-lent Bavarian festival called Fasching today. It was really fun with over 40 floats bedecked in a particular theme and with music blearing out. Almost everyone was dressed in very random fancy-dress clothes with many men dressing up in women’s clothes! Nice but odd with about 6 inches of snow [...]

We’re still having lots of fun in Munich! Hannah is really enjoying playing with her mega blocks as you can see from the video above! We started off encouraging her to build by saying “Wow” everytime she put one block on top of each other. She still expects it and when we don’t do it [...]

Since we have moved over to Munich, Hannah has been ‘helping’ in the kitchen on a regular basis. The kitchen in our new house has a very deep work surface so that Hannah is able to sit up on the side quite safely and offer her assistance!

Last time we put Hannah in her door bouncer she screamed her head off. This time however, she seems far more content. She still hasn’t really figured out she has feet yet so it might be a few more weeks until she is properly bouncing herself! At least she’s content!

With my passion for photography, I decided many months ago to begin developing a photo book to record Hannah’s progress. The first book would obviously cover the conception to birth with all the excitement that goes with that and the wonder of the first few months! I have loved capturing the moments throughout the past [...]

Over the last few weeks Hannah has been experimenting more and more with her voice. This has included some ‘noisy smiles’. Not quite a laugh, but more than a smile… This morning however, we experienced her first proper giggle. She has developed rather a like for having her neck kissed and blown on and while [...]
