Annika's half year celebrations today and as can be seen by today's photos she is coming on so well. Ann went with Annika to the doctors to get a jab and a check up, she is doing really well and solid foods and the next stage for eating and drinking were chatted through but seeing Annika plugged into the breast at regular times during the day and night there is no way she is in the mood to give up that treat.
Annika does seem to have an alergy, we think to processed milk products, she goes very blotchy in the skin when eating or sampling ice cream, and several other milky things, we will find out more in time, sure its a minor problem, the skin flares up and recedes with lightning speed.
What else, well she can roll over both ways, looks ready to start crawling and has some strength in the legs, she is very alert and knows how to "ask" for things. She is a star.
Today i dunked her under the water for the first time in the pool and was interested to see how she reacted. Shear panic while under water would be the best description but when on the surface after say 0.5 seconds, under water a sort of stunned acceptance. ( i waited till ann wasn't about). Repeated it once more and same reaction, i thought twice was pushing my luck, so decided against a third dunk, we were in the pool for about 25 mins, water very warm.
That is the update on Annika,only good news.............
