Hi, I just thought I’d let you know what I’ve been up to since I introduced myself. Last month I really got the knack of crawling around the house. My favourite trick is disappearing under the computer desk and pressing a really pretty blue light. Unfortunately, all the lights then seem to go out which simultaneously sets my Dad off on one of his “Emily what do you think you’re doing?” rants. Clearly he’s not discovered the pretty blue light yet, he should get down on his hands and knees a bit more often.

Book Worm

It’s not only crawling that I’m becoming quite good at. I’ve also discovered the beauty of reading and can’t wait to pull out all of these books from the bookshelf. I should imagine that would please Daddy no end.

Piano Man

When I’m not reading I like to tickle the ivory on our new piano. The piano used to belong to Nanny but when she died we inherited it. Mummy and Isaac are learning to play and have been going to lessons. I have to admit it, they are both very good. By contrast I’ve a little way to go, mainly because my entire hand barely covers 2 keys. My time will come though, just you wait and see. Pity the neighbours.

Move over Einaudi, My turn

Thanks Uncle James

Hello, my name is Emily and I am the younger sister of Isaac who you are very familiar with if you’ve been following the bathtime blog over the past 5 years. I’m so excited that Uncle James has set me up with my own blog, thanks a million James. I look forward to meeting you one day.

Introducing myself

Wearing Grandad's hat

I’m Growing!

Here is a recent picture of me. As you can see I’m drop dead gorgeous – well my Daddy says I am anyway. I’ve got a cheeky smile and love to clap to music. I’ve also recently learnt how to raise my eyebrows up and down.

Best of all though, I’ve just discovered that if I put one leg in front of the other I can move around the room. I can even sneakily crawl over to Isaac’s toys and really annoy him. Revenge is so sweet!

Look out, I've learnt how to crawl

I’ll try to keep you fully up to date with my life story so stay tuned.

Lots of love

The whole family

Emily

Happy Birthday Emily!!!

Hello Emily and Happy Christmas!

This is my first Christmas present to you!

It’s your own website where Mummy and Daddy can help you to let your family and friends know what you’ve been up to. They can also put pictures of you online doing all sorts of exciting things! It’s not just Isaac who’s got their own site now!

You can see it by going to www.emily-cate.co.uk or www.emily-cate.org.uk

I have registered these names for you and this site is being ‘hosted’ on my own web space all the way over in America!

If Mummy and Daddy email me, I can send them instructions on how to add news and pictures about you!

If you like, you can also have your own email address! You could have me@emily-cate.co.uk if you want (or anything else!). Ask Mummy and Daddy to ask me about this!

I hope you have a brilliant Christmas and I hope to meet you in person soon!

Love Uncle James
