I suppose Rose has some teeth and is probably walking along furniture or maybe even independently by now.

Hello Paul!  

I reckon Rose is around eleven months old.  How beautiful it will be when we see her smile and respond to Hayley’s singing!

Hayley and Rose celebrated Travis’s birthday today! 

Looks like they took Rose out to experience her first snow! On the 9th, probably in ChCh but possibly in the hills of the north island.

Haven't seen snow like that here in the south of England for 5 years!

Oops!  I nearly forgot to post this story from overnight!  Looks like a pleasant winter’s day there!

Rose is still in a sling harness, usually when little girls start walking (usually earlier than their male counterparts) they want to walk all the time, everywhere, singing Don't stop me now, I'm havin' a good time..

Two Instagram stories in from Hayley!  


First up…. Hayley shows a favorited ferment and tortilla chips! 




Then we see Hayley and Rose in the late-winter sun!

She's recently changed her avatar to the photo she posted when she said she was going on hiatus back in late 2021.

Thanks Jeff!  I just got the notification for the second story (a video of the baby) and that was three hours late! Yes, Hayley and Rose are in Portugal! Vamos!

[Jeff]

Yes Joe other Instagram stories have appeared but I just can't get them to embed. I don't think technology likes me !

Hello Jeff!    It is easier for me to do a screenshot since the story is just temporary. Thanks for the new stories tip…I will paste the screenshots below!

I am thinking we are quite near Rose’s first birthday!  Hayley told us on the forum that her baby was born in September; in looking at some of her Instagram posts from early October last year, Rose was likely born in late September. On the other hand, it is entirely possible that Rose’s birthday has already occurred. 

In either case, to baby Rose,

We have a little girl who was born around the same time as Rose who comes to visit with us regularly, so I see first hand what stage Rose would be at and the antics that she may be up to. The smiles, the giggles, the aromas, the attempts at words, the little nips of new sharp teeth on the fingers and knees. Probably walking unsupported by now, testing their own balance with little dances and wiggles. Yep, all great fun.

That’s wonderful, Paul!  May God bless that little one!  🎀 

Two new stories in from Hayley!  Not sure if she is still in Portugal.  The second story is a video of a small dock.

Yes yes, happy birthday to little Rose, we must be within a few days of it either way!

They are indeed so cute at that age Paul, I have a 3 year old granddaughter and she still is! Well mostly, though she has her moments when fighting tiredness and determined not to go to bed!
