So as it say's in the title.... The first smile from any of your babies is an amazing feeling its like " i'm doing OK , there happy they know i'm mummy !! " its such an amazing feeling to see that little precious baby look up at you and smile at you and your partner. Next is the first laugh! omg i remember bathing Scarlett and i just got her out of the bath and wrapped her up in her towel and said to her " iv got you all wrapped up now baby " and she coos at me then squealed then she laughed!! i was omg omg i was filming at the time so i was delighted to show my partner so he didn't miss it in a sense as he was at work. Now is for the first head push up i was constantly giving Scarlett tummy time & also having your baby on your chest having cuddles or winding is also tummy time as they try to move of you! once Scarlett got the hand of it she pushed herself up and i was able to get it on camera after her bath this time my partner was here to see it so we was more than happy to share that moment. Then in time it was her time to roll and turn which is ever so scary if you dont know its going to happen! Always make sure the baby is in a cot , on a soft floor , Basically wherever it is safe incase the little one decides to roll! Scarlett gave me a heart attack numerous times when she started rolling! But it was a new milestone for her and i as well as my partner was more than happy to catch her doing it. Then once your baby decides to be amazing at rolling, Flash Gordon appears as shes started to master the fast crawl! at first yeah its frustrating as you feel awful on your baby that you cant help them crawl as they also get frustrated and get abut upset but in time you know they will do it and when i say they crawl they CRAWL!! But again its another amazing moment to see with your partner. From there they notice things and want to reach out and up to get up to it and then again BAM " oh mama i can pull myself up and stand against something " yes its quite scary you literally need to baby guard everything so they dont loose grip , trip or fall and hurt themselves! That's when the worrying mother appears even more and you get scared for them and nearly wet yourself! You can buy plastic guards to put on the edge of units , tables , chairs anything what you think is a hazard. Next is walking we got her a Pink VTech First Steps Baby Walker at first baby's are abit uneasy and have to get there balance and know how to move about putting one foot before the other but once they get a hang of it there going for it! Scarlett loved her baby walker after a while and the great thing is it can be taken apart to be a play board which keeps them entertained for a while Scarlett loves it and to this day still plays with the play board, After we knew she was steady on her feet and ready to walk we got her , her own little Fisher-Price Princess Stroller in pink and she loves it and it also comes with a Princess Chime doll which she loves to take out with her when we go for days out, From there she just started to be brave and started to walk around me and my partner was so excited for her! Then after the walking she decided to start being more brave and run around kept us on our toes and still does now! But we wouldn't swap it for the world having the moments from the first push up to her now walking around on a reign and giggling being happy go lucky.
