visit from opa



percy enjoyed a visit from her opa (my dad) over the last couple of days. after an initial hesitancy that lasted only a few minutes she had lots of smiles, hugs and sharing. here's them sharing a pear!

we had a couple of walks to the park to play on the swings and see-saw, also to try out walking in her new shoes.
she's walking very well behind her walkers now so we thought she ought to have some shoes when out on the footpaths. we got her some blue sandals from pumpkin patch. which surprised the hell out of me. i thought we'd never buy anything at that shop, primarily because we couldn't afford it but also because we don't see the point in babies wearing label/ branded clothing. her hand-me-downs and a couple of items from kmart are doing great! anyways, she seems to have taken to walking in the sandals quite well. some funny high reaching steps first and then back to normal.

we waved opa away this morning around 7am. percy is mastering the idea of waving good bye to people. her wave is a wild flailing of her arm but she definately associates it with people saying "bye bye" and waving to her.
