Isobel has been 'wowing' her relatives with all the changes that have taken place in her behaviour, personality and language development. She really is the star of the show! This summer is already such a completely different experience from last summer.
She has been very excited to meet everyone, interact with them and chatter along to them. It isn't always possible to understand what she is saying, but usually after a couple of tries and some Mummy/Daddy interpretation the conversation goes smoothly.
She has already enjoyed riding by herself in Nana and Grandpops' car (something that would never have happened last summer), feeding the ducks and walking through the market.
Currently, we are in Weymouth where she has enjoyed walking along the beach, eating fish and chips on Grandad's boat and taking in the hustle and bustle of a seaside town. The size of the seagulls are amazing to her but she does find them somewhat intimidating.
AVT is going marvellously. With so many willing helpers, Isobel is really enjoying the games and lesson as well as the opportunity to show off the skills she has already built up. All that coupled with the story tellers and everyday life filled with new vocabulary and experiences, her language is coming along nicely.
