Helen Blackwell Age 1
Helen Blackwell first year was full of travel in Thailand and also a very long trip to UK so that her half sisters and family could see her. Of course this was year like most babies Helen Blackwell went from starting to crawl a bit to trying to stand up and to walking as well starting to speak her first words.
Before these developments she just waved her arms about and said gogo gaga. She started by pulling herself up in her cot and then their was no stopping her and Helen even as a 1 year old was rearing to go exploring. Helen Blackwell started to explore world around her both in confines of her own home and on many trips her parents went on during the year. In UK Helen Blackwell as well as seeing her half sisters and her first niece travelled with her parents all over UK.
From warm southern parts to highlands and wilderness of Scotland. Even though it was still summer their was some snow on top of mountain at Avimore in Scotland. So for second time she experienced snow and ever since Helen Blackwell misses not seeing or playing in snow. By end of her first year she was not only walking but running as well so she had to have a harness when going out.
She was also starting to eat normal food and not just baby foods and her first teeth were coming out. In Thailand she visited beaches of south and hills and mountains of north. Although Helen Blackwell’s parents already had a holiday home in Chiang Mai most of time she stayed in their condo in Bangkok. She loved playing in water and swimming and on one trips went to famous mud baths in Northern Thailand. It was a very eventful year
