It's all about go go go...

Since we've been home, Naia has been on the go. A lot! 

She's now tackled and mastered stair climbing (it took her about five minutes to get up this flight of stairs the first time--now she does it in under a minute!).

She's also figured out how to get to standing (now she seems to spend more time on her feet than her knees!).

All this standing means she also likes to stand in her cot (rather than sleep, ahem), so it was time to lower the cot mattress. Here she is helping Daddy...

Naia is eating loads just to keep up with all the extra energy she is burning (yes, she ate all of that!)...

She's an adventurous eater. Here she is fueling up on a kiwifruit and spinach smoothie while visiting with Jean...

Nothing is off limits now it seems...even the dishwasher is fascinating.

She's getting super speedy at crawling.

And when something (or someone) gets in the way, you just go over them (oops, sorry Ben!).

Such a pro at this standing business...

It's not all about indoor play. We've had loads of fun at the park too...

 

Hanging out with her buddy Jack in their matching overalls :) 

And last weekend we spent a fun day at the zoo. Here we are posing in front of the lions instead of having a morning nap (though eating her hat is more interesting apparently).

Hanging in the sunshine with Daddy...

And with Mummy and friends (Sarah & Ben and Julia & Jack)...

Check out the monkeys!

Naia's growing up so fast...she's big enough for rides on Daddy's shoulders now.

Something else big happened this month--Mummy went back to work! Naia has been spending three days a week with a nanny, Renee. The first couple of weeks were a tough adjustment, but she's having loads of fun now. Here she is giving Renee a cuddle...

And grinning as Renee pushes her on her swing...

Judging by what we've seen in the last few days, Naia has some new tricks up her sleeve. Watch this space!
