bruises

Zoe's prediliction for pulling herself up on furniture has led to a few bumps and bruises in the last few days, mostly on her forehead and cheeks. Apparently this is normal for babies of this age. She's very 'busy' at the moment, going here and there and pulling up on everything. As we're in the middle of prep'ing and painting the living areas of the house, this is making things tricky. Most of the work is being done at night.

It's been consistently very hot here, maybe a little unusual for early summer, but not too unexpected. Zoe has been suffering from the heat a little, and is maybe teething too, so has been pretty uncomfortable. A cooler change yesterday was most welcome.
