Mommy's pride at your First Word
Dear Leo,
Mommy feels that the time is right to applaud the utterance of your First Real Word. She has been debating for some time now if the various noises that emanate from your mouth could be nominated for this auspicious title, which includes the steady stream "mamamamama" and "bababababa".
There were a number of criteria she used in order to evaluate this word.

The Meaning of Life
Dear Leo,
The title of this blogpost is actually a misnomer. Most Big People don't actually get what the Meaning of Life is unless they're Douglas Adams, who decided that the answer is 42 or a bunch called Monty Python who seemed to think it was about large, gluttinous men throwing up in buckets and exploding.
The purpose of this blog post is to tell you about the Great Drama that took place yesterday involving Daddy, and what this has to do with meaning in your life.

The Mirror vs. Mommy
Dear Leo,
As Mommy stared at herself in the mirror this morning she realised that, since your arrival, there have been some radical shifts in her appearance.
Of course all Mommys out there complain about the inevitable loss of smooth belly skin and droopy boobs post pregnancy and birth. However, your Mommy has noted that there are subtler physical changes that accompany the state of motherhood.

Etiquette
Dear Leo,
As you grow and are challenged by life, you will gradually begin to notice that adult humans have collectively decided what is deemed appropriate sociable behaviour.
People (and this includes Mommy and Daddy) will tell you to say "please" and "thank you" and "excuse me".
Mommy has been watching you over the past couple of months, and has decided that this human etiquette stuff is actually a load of trumped up hogwash.
She is deeply envious and hugely admiring of your various activities.

Food vs. Anti Food
Dear Leo,
Owning a mouth is amazing. Opening and closing it, as you have already discovered, enables humans to make noises called language, which helps them to communicate with each other. It will be quite some time before you refine the art of making comprehensible noises, but for now you're doing just fine.
The other thing Mommy sees you have noticed is that your mouth contains tastebuds, and that different objects do not feel or taste the same when shoved hastily into it. Apparently this is partially because you have more nerve endings in your mouth than anywhere else in your body and, unlike us big people, you have tastebuds on the roof of your mouth.
Which is why Mommy is flummoxed by your choice of objects-to-be-mouthed. It is with growing distress that she has noticed that foodstuff is not included in this list.

Bath time is not poo time
Dear Leo,
Mommy has been deeply fascinated by your poo since the day you were born. She's very pleased that you are not, as yet, equally fascinated.
Her first intimate introduction to your poo was on arrival at home from the hospital. She's still trying to clean the top you redecorated whilst she was trying to change your nappy, and she now knows what the term " The Squirts " really means.
