Clifford

If you haven't already met, this....

is Clifford the big red dog.

There is a Clifford ride at a local shopping centre that the Princess just LOVES.  She has seen the actual cartonn maybe twice in her life and isn't really interested in going on the ride.  She just wants to touch him, kiss him and look lovingly at him.

It's the cutest thing to see.  I'm not sure what it is about Clifford but the Bob The Builder ride across the square from him just gets a glance and if she gets too close she says 'NO' and runs away. Maybe it's his big eyes, maybe it's his redness, maybe it's his big black nose - whatever it is - it's love!

In other news, the Princess no longer crawls at all.  She wants to walk everywhere and explore at her pace.  This is a fantastic development for her, as the world has suddenly become a much more interesting place. 

I've said it before, but where did my baby go?
