A bit of botox… and a new carpet.

Helen thinks that Butterbean will need some Botox becuase of the amazing furrows on her brow that she has when she frowns - or starts to cry. She took her to see a friend Carmel, who had a another baby a few weeks ago - gave us a present for ~Butterbean and a small pressie for Stringbean - real girly stuff - sparkly bangles and some kiddies sparkly body gel, lipstick stuff etc. - so she loved it, especially as we lost the bit of freebie stuff we got off the front of magazine. Though then made a fuss as she had lipstick on when she wanted to eat her dinner - ‘well go and wipe it off then….’ - fuss - fuss.

Stringbean was at nursery today, when I went to pick her up she didn’t want to come home - she want to carry on playing ‘camping’ or whatever it was they were all doing in the corner. Glad to know that home is such a welcoming place.

Got the new hall and landing carpet today so said goodbye to the last of the stuff that was here when we moved in in 1997 - makes such difference… surprise , surprise. Stringbean has bee looking forward to a carpet on the stairs, when she saw it she was so pleased ‘ Oh it goes upstairs as well!” After dinner she had a Kiwifruit, she helped peel and slice it she is getting worringly good at times a using a sharp knife (with a bit of help and supervision) - but she does know how to hold it had to cut safely with it as we’ve always encouraged her to do it and respect them, rathee than hide them away
