An eventful couple of days

In a great family tradition Della went to university for the first time today. She is taking part in a linguistics study for babbling babies. We sat in a soundproof box (me with headphones on) and Della heard fun sounds and looked at pretty lights. The next stage of the study involves her wearing a vest with a mic in all weekend. This should be interesting!

Before this Nick and Sarah had a little visit on Sunday and brought curly fries - this was perfect for me as I had managed to stay out in town until 2.30am on a night out with the girls so all I wanted was hangover food.

We then went up to Durham for a few days - apart from Della and her grizzly gums - it was a lovely couple of days.  Della also wrote her christmas list for Santa while we were there. Mainly she wants some new toes - her's are staring to run out:

She also did some chuckling in her new stripy jumper. If you look closely you can also see the dribble pouring from her mouth!
