1. October 2012 Updates: Budding fashion queen or mini- scientist: Alma tries it all!

2. Alma is a champion of the morning and night routines, as she does them almost completely on her own. Her curls have grown significantly Alma’s attitude towards day care has improved and she has been crying significantly less, and also participated in some activities.

3. This little girl is VERY flexible!

4. The bumble bee outfit was her favourite this month!

5. Some more stripes (in a summer dress I bought her from ALDI)

6. Left: a new cape for Halloween Middle: giving Misty some rare attention Right: in a new skirt from ALDI

7. Lots of things to do with chairs: A monster’s cave (left) A reading corner (middle) And a resting place with style (right)

8. Alma enjoys good drama, like chatting with frisky Fritzi, walking the dog or growing a tail...

9. Daily activities are very interesting to her, like measuring temperature, doing “homework sheets” and putting the dolls to bed in her “day care”

10. Alma is toilet trained, though I still put a nappy on just for sleeping, till she’ll stop crawling into our bed at night. Meanwhile her dolly has progressed well too!

11. After sorting the teddy puzzle, Alma found a more interesting way to play with it...
