My Mummy has now been my Mummy for eight and a something-I've-lost-count months. It's time I updated my ratings of her performance as a Mummy.
Availability: 9/10
I've done it! I can crawl! I can chase Mummy! Although now that I can go wherever I want to go, chasing Mummy suddenly seems less interesting to me. Do you know what's just on the other side of Mummy and Daddy's bedroom door? THE STAIRS! Who knew those were right there?! They look like a fun place to play. Sadly, my attempts to get to them have been repeatedly thwarted by Mummy scooping me up and replacing me on the bedroom side of the door. The same goes for all the dusty grey stuff in the fireplace, the pretty colourful beads that my sister dropped all over the floor, yesterday's breakfast underneath my highchair...Yes, in fact I think I would prefer Mummy to be somewhat less available at the moment...
Food: 5/10
Mummy continues to have no imagination when it comes to food. She should let me do the cooking.
Physical Care: 3/10
Mummy, that nasty sticky cream does not stop my neck itching. Please stop slathering it all over me and use magic instead. Also, I have had cereal in my left eyebrow all morning, have you noticed?
Environment: 10/10
Just loving how my world is full of ledges, shelves, handles and other peoples' legs that I can pull myself to standing on and use to get around. Every new surface that I attain has something different on it as a sort of prize, like this really fascinating pointy shiny poky thing...hey, give that back!
Entertainment Value: 10/10
Do you know how to play peepo? You pull a towel over your head, and everything goes black and Mummy disappears. Then you drop the towel, and Mummy's THERE AGAIN and she says hello! Funniest thing EVER.
