Looking so grown up ...

It's been a long time ...

Hi all,
Sincere apologies for the length of time taken to update this blog. Life has been so hectic in the last month or so and I have no idea where the time goes.
Summer in the UK was a bit of a wash-out weatherwise this year. This meant Mummy and Daddy weren't at work as much as they had planned to, but it also meant that I got to hang out with them more.


We spent lots of time at the beach (just trying to wear me out) and I have had lots of playdates with my friends. It has been lots of fun.
I had one of my first big impact tantrums at Tescos a few weeks back - I wanted some new wellies, picked them out, held them and when it came time to pay for them I wouldn't give them to the lady behind the counter. Mummy said if I didn't hand them over she wouldn't buy them. I refused and she kept her side of the bargain :-(
But I did learn that I have to do as Mummy and Daddy say and when they took me shopping the next week I sat in the trolley with the things I wanted and kept saying 'I have to give it to the lady, I have to give it to the lady' all the way around. I gave the things to the lady and it worked! So, a lesson learned there!


Uncle Lenny and Aunty Michelle popped down to Devon a few times this summer, as did Aunty M. But I guess the big arrivals were my Paps and his friend Maria from Spain. They came to stay for a few days at the end of August, which gave me a chance to catch up on my Spanish and show Paps what a big girl I am now.



And equally big news is that my Uncle Andre, Daddy's twin brother, is over from Hong Kong at the moment as he is getting married TOMORROW in Devon. I am very much looking forward to the wedding - Daddy is best man and some other aunts and uncles of mine are coming over from California and I have NEVER met them before so I am looking forward to that.
I am looking forward to the reception afterwards too - I love a good dance.
I will makre sure I post pictures of the wedding in the next few days - cross my heart.
Hope this finds you well.
Much love,
Little Lottie xxx
