mothers day and other shenanigans

Hello!

Well mothering sunday has just been and gone and I had a lovely day. Lily gave me a beautiful portmeiron teapot with sweetpeas on it ( one of my favorite flowers) and a card with first mothers day on it. something to keep forever.

I dressed lily in her first dress we bought her. its cream and very traditional. she looked so lovely. Her nana Michele came for the weekend so she was very well behaved and smiley until after lunch on sunday when it all went pear shaped.

All was to be revealed though as she then proceeded to wake every hour from 11 pm with her teeth and a rotten cold. Eventually she came into bed with us as I was up and down like a jack in the box.

She has been really sick and bunged up today but still full of smiles and laughing, bless her little heart. Food is off the menu today.

I have got to say I am fining this whole weaning lark so difficult as Lily seems to be quite fussy and I seem to be quite a control freak. Its the dirty face and hands I cant stand . when she has her finger food i have to sit on my hands to keep from helping her. who would have thought.

I got over it today though. by the evening I had mucus , sick and all sorts of foodstuffs smeared all over my top. I just gave up eventually and changed when she went to bed.

just a little story to encourage people to have children!! :)

Lilys little sense of humour is growing by the day. she loves hiding her head from us now and if I do something funny like put a cup on my head she laughs. which I find remarkable for a 7 month old. I cant keep up!

lily has a clinic visit on wednesday so we can update you on her then and of course the dreaded singing tomorrow if she is better.

Much love to you all

Wendy
