On Saturday night Eve and I went out for the first time during the evening since she was born. We walked with Sam to his cousin's house for a house-warming party. It's a 10 minute walk and was such a calm, clear, dark evening for a stroll.
Sam and I laughed at how fascinated Eve was with being outside at night-time - she really looked awed by the difference during the night-time compared with the day. We could tell that she loved looking at the light from the street lamps and the shadows. Her little face was such a picture. Usually when we put her in the pram she falls asleep fairly quickly, but this time she was so amazed at looking around that she stayed awake for the whole journey.
Eve finally fell asleep as we approached Tom and Elise's new house, as their street is in a residential area and was much darker than where we live. We were greeted at the door by their children Rosa, Henry and Josephine. Rosa was dressed up in a lovely red dress, and Henry and Josephine were in pyjama's ready for bed. They looked at our baby as we drove the pram into their playroom and then they went upstairs to bed. I hooked up the baby monitor and carried the other end with me as I enjoyed myself wandering about meeting people with Sam. However, this wasn't really necessary as Eve stayed asleep the entire time that we were there.
We had a great time drinking wine and meeting lots of GP's. I can definitely say that I've never been in a room with so many doctors in one go. We also met Elise's mum and Dad (Stafford and Jenny), and her brother Mark and his French wife. Good to meet more family members!

(This is not Eve)
Colour differences are becoming clearer to your baby, and she starts to distinguish between similar shades. Your baby may prefer bright primary colours and more detailed and complicated designs and shapes. Encourage your baby by showing her bright pictures, photos, books, and toys.
