Cara has loved watching the CBeebies show Something Special for quite a while now, but Felicity now seems to really like it too. I think it's because she gets to join in. The presenter Justin uses Makaton while speaking. Felicity likes to wave hello and move her hands around. I've been trying to use a few of the signs such as 'Please' and 'Thank you' that maybe Felicity will pick it up. We'll see, I'm not that good at always being consistent. It's great that she's starting to communicate with us though. Another of her favourite things to join in with is the song 'Wind the Bobbin Up' I need to take some video of that.

A Morning Out Shopping Together
After an hour or so looking around the clothes shops at Designer Outlet, York, we all decided it was time to get a bite to eat. On the menu:
Andrew: Pret BLT sandwich
Cara and Helen: Pizza Hut margerita pizza and orange juice.
Slurp Slurp!

2009 So Far
First of all - sorry to those who might be reading this blog for not updating it more frequently. It's certainly not to say that exciting things haven't been happening for the Munzer family. Since this year began we've all been growing - Felicity is almost standing up on her own now, and Cara is more conversationally sophisticated than her father was at age eighteen. Helen has become deeply and significantly involved in the local network of children's centres and has begun the process of searching for a career fitting her considerable and varied skills. Andrew has finished a Master's degree, and begun doctoral research at the University here in York.
Aunty Hannah has got back from a mission, and Uncle Ben has left on one. The seasons have almost all rolled round another time. One thing I can say for all of us - we're so happy to have each other, and grateful for each new and exciting opportunity life gives us. What's coming next? Chances are the next few months will have something exciting in store, if previous years are anything to go by:
2006: Andrew and Helen get married
2007: Cara is born
2008: Felicity is born
2009: ?
I intend to keep you all up to date a bit better, right here!
