ICSI chick

My (almost) seven and a half month old daughter is a delight. She is always so excited to see me or her Daddy when she wakes first thing in the morning, makes lots of lovely sounds and vowel type noises (the raspberry will always be funny to her), 'dances' with kicks in time to the daggy bath song I made up especially for her and is now rolling and rolling with ease (although sitting up unassisted remains a source of frustration for her). A little attention seeker, her face always lights up with a huge smile that makes her blue eyes sparkle whenever anyone pays her attention (and being such a cute baby, that is quite often). Her little mouth opens like a bird to take in her solids and she loves to play with her spoon. On the boob, she is forever distracted but always coos when she is finally satisfied.

My daughter is a miracle.
My daughter put an end to the pain of two and a half years of struggling to have a baby.
My daughter is one of the growing numbers of 'frosty' babies, a wonderful little ICSI chick.

And I'm just so proud to be her Mum.
