Stella, Whiskers & Koala

Stella's faves change as time goes on, however Whiskers the cat and Koala have been firm favourites for some time. She loves carrying them around as she walks, the other day she wouldn't do anything without them. She holds them up to her neck, gives them a cuddle and a pat and says 'awwww', something we realised we do a lot when we cuddle her or her toys! She cuddles many things this way including her blocks which are not very cuddly! She saw someone playing the violin on tv the other day and said 'awww', I think she thought that they were cuddling it not playing it!

The other two pics are from last weekend, one showing the carnage we create during our playtime sessions (our fault for having so many toys and books within reach!). Stella loves it when Mark plays the guitar and sings, we have adapted many Hi5 songs along with other family favourites and while away the time singing and dancing - great therapy after a busy week. The other one is Stella entranced by her Love to Sing DVD after her bath doing her best mermaid impression - she's usually very serious at that time of night!
