SB woke us up – as usual – by crawling into our bed. I think it was just before 5. BB then woke up for a feed. To be fair, BB had slept through from about 10 o clock. this made SB completely perky. As she said, her blood had carried energy to all her body, and there was no sleep left. Sigh! At about 7.00, chris realised resistance was futile and got up. Yay! I spent another 2 hours in bed with BB, then got breakfast in bed. Almost makes up for the complete lack of mothers day I got. 4 in a bed too many though, and will have to buy a superking. the owners of the next house might sell us theirs for a song as it doesn’t fit in their bungalow.
SB proudly announced she had been doing ‘Art’ [it definitely had a capital to it!]. She got an art set for her irthday, with paints, felt tips crayons and pictures to colour in. She particularly liked the white crayon on black paper effect. We played with her dolls while eating my first breakfast, and her second. She is getting more imaginative with her stories as well. I got some kiss cuddle and tickle time in. We do lots of this, I just don’t tend to blog it – it would be a bit like blogging nappy changes!
When I got up and went to ‘puter, she remnded me we needed some more of the match and sort, so we got the next 6 pages of exeter maths printed off, and then did them all. Obviously with breaks for skipping, annoying daddy, getting felt tip and pen on sofa and sulking when they were put away! Yes, my fault for having them on the sofa. We usually do it at the kitchen table though. Daddy was trying to sweep the floor, and kicking the piles was not appreciated. Anyway shes got the bigger than etc stuff sorted. we had to give up on one of the matching to the number line exercises tough, as she was seeing how long the path could be, and after 2 interminable squiggles there was no clear paper left. I was a giggly heap as well, as she was giving the pen road directions.
Beans on toast for lunch, so nice and simple, and we whipped through some of the phonics flash cards. She’s definitely getting the hang of this, though if she guesses the word, she’s apt to say something begining with the last letter or letter sound cluster.
We both had quite a play with BB, getting her to hold and stretch for a rattle. She is giggling a lot, and it makes SB proud. though she says ‘are you making fun of me’ to BB at this point.They’ve both been in a sunny mood today.
She nipped next door to visit our neighbours and then out to her friend’s party. As Chris went to, hopefully he will add something. She came back fast asleep anyway.
I actually did housework [shock]. blogged, and fed and played with BB. Mostly jiggles, tickles and silly names. She really does love her pudding club cube. I also got a letter re my medical. After panicking, i’ve decided to waitwocher [is it tm?] my meals in points, and limit them to breast feeder amounts. hopefully will lose a bit, and get me in habit. I also found some riviying trash on telly – being americas next supermodel. fantastic! They are so bitchy.
so , another good day, relaxed vibe to it.
