Little Gorilla Big Gorilla

On Saturday, Katy woke up from her nap in a deep funk. She's been doing this the last few afternoons. She just cries and cries and screams and nothing helps her, so the only thing we can do is to hold her very tight. Well, Mama has to. She doesn't want anyone else.

Then Dada got this great idea! And it worked! It got Katy out of her funk.


Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh, they said.And gave each other a Gorilla face kiss.
These gorillas are pretty civilised - wine connoisseurs even!
One of our favourite books at the moment is called "Little Gorilla" and it is about how everyone loved the baby gorilla until he grew and grew and grew and had his 5th birthday, and how you know what, even though he is now a big gorilla, everyone still loved him just as much. I got it for Katy because of this prolonged I want to be a Baby stage. I worried that she was going all Peter Pan on us and not wanting to grow up.
