Semana 9 Lunes

Daisy is beginning to enjoy spending time in her sling facing outwards instead of inwards, so she can see the world. We pop to the market with her facing out, much to the delight of the stallholders.


Daisy has become a market celebrity. Everyone knows her name (particularly the fact she is called Nichim) and they throw in extra oranges and other fruits ‘for the baby’. It’s odd to think that next time we are here she will be able to try some of them.

Judging by the flavours of the baby jars here, Mexican like to wean their children on chayote, which is a kind of bland cactus, as well as mango and avocado. Bit different from at home, but we’ll just have to see what she likes.


We also begin to suspect that our drooling little girl is cutting a tooth, since we can see a little toothbud at the front. She’s having a good chew on everything she can find and is a bit clingy. Can’t quite believe she is getting so grown up.

Oh I remember my niece absolutely loving - right from the start - looking out of the sling, she hated just looking at chests. I guess she was just nosy from day 1.
