![]() ![]() Anyway, after I packed my bag I read my favorite book series called DORK DIARIES! God, I love those books then it was time to go and it was so weird walking without my mum and my bratty sister. Then as I went to pour the milk into my bowl obviously I spilled milk all over the bench. ![]() "UGH, the poppy will you stop that" I yelled in frustration, and then she just walked off giggling her head off. In fact, I felt a little guilty that I wasnt sobbing about how much I missed Katie.Today went horribly wrong as it always does and today was my first day of year 7 person thingy WHATEVER.Īnyway, it started when my spoiled little sister poppy woke me up by throwing her beanie boos in my face. Make up applied, I headed into work, I felt like I was the new kid starting at a new school in the middle of the year! Bumping into people left right and center, who were all asking how Katie was and wanting to see pictures, but I was feeling OK about it all. Was hard, i held back my tears and left, and was happily greeted by plenty of up tempo songs to distract myself with on the drive. She has always been so so smiley first thing in the morning, so it was wonderful to see that beautiful grin before I left. By quarter to 7 I had eaten, washed up and rechecked my bag about 100 times, so went back upstairs where Katie was rolling about on the bed with Nick. After her feed, I put Katie down in bed with Nick and went to have my breakfast. I had prepared everything they day before, packed lunch, notepad and pens, even my make up bag so i could get ready in the car park at work, wasting as little precious time we had at home. As it meant I could feed her and smush her to death before getting ready for work. Although we miss waking up with her smiley face, and I haven't quite got used to not having to get up and checking in her, the sleeping through FOR US is deffinatley a big big bonus.įor once I was grateful for Katie's 6oclock wake up. Yes I am running to her as soon as she stirrs, but it requires a lot less interruption to her sleep, and has worked wonders! In the last week Katie has slept through for the first time, stirred but not woken up, stayed in her cot all night, woke up happy in her cot and so on. Ths manages to settle her back to sleep before she properly wakes herself up and gets upset. The changes wev made are, where normally I would wait until her stirring turned into being unsettled and go and get her, I will go straight to the stirring and just 'shush' her back to sleep holding my face closely to hers so she can feel by breath but without picking her up. She had also been ending up in bed with us most nights by about 2am, mainly because she wouldn't settle back down in her cot, but occasionally because I was just too exhausted to keep getting out of bed. Before, whenever Katie woke up, I would feed her, because it was the easiest way to get her back to sleep. However, in the past few weeks, since Iv been back at work, we have made a few changes. Nights have always been a bit up and down with Katie (see previous 'bedtime diaries' post). She bounces on her bum to singing and clapping and she pulls at mummy's hair all day long She has mega temper tantrums and fits of hysterical laughing. She coos, gargles, giggles and squaks and her smile still absoluptley melts my heart. She loves goung for rides around the supermarket in the big girl trolly, and ofcourse, no matter how many toys we shower her with she is totally obsessed with TV remotes and phones. She is looking inside, underneath and behind all her toys, is obsessed with labels, zips and buttons and she knows when your hiding something from her! She absolutley loves banging toys together (especially whilst sat in her ball pit). She loves the swings and being in the garden. When standing up and holding onto someones hands she is even beginning to master her first few steps. And glides accross them room in a matter of seconds. She can pull herself up from sitting to standing on sofas, boxes and on us and can hold herself up for ages, chewing on whatever she's holding onto. If she topples to one side, she puts her hand out to stop herself falling. Katie has been sitting completely independently for about 2 months.
