As Abi was going to bed, we had the following conversation:

**Abi:**Abi to wake up early

**Abi:**Abi wake up at 3

**Me:**Thats too early - how about 8?

**Abi:**Abi wake up at 10 to 7

The other night when Abi was in the bath, she decided to do some swimming. She went down onto all fours, and then lifted her feet up to float along the surface of the water. Like this she ‘swam’ lengths of the bath with her hands on the bottom.

“Nemo” - Abi

Abi now knows how to get her milk! First she’ll use the sign for milk:

If we don’t notice, she do it again with sounds and then sometimes if we’re in the kitchen she’ll point to her bottles followed by the fridge and the microwave (just in case we’ve forgotten how to!). One time she even went as far as to get the empty milk bottle out of the recycling bin and hold it up to me!

I know this video has been on Laura’s facebook for a while, but I wanted it here too as it’s sooo cute!

Abi has been doing so well with her swimming and it’s lots of fun taking her. Last week, she had her first solo underwater swim - which meant she swam between the instructor and me underwater. (It was only a very short distance, but amazing!) Tomorrow is her last session of the current term, which seems to have flown by, but we’re now booked onto the next term so it’ll only be a weeks gap in between.
