Well, toddler group went VERY VERY well. For those who've been following my problems with D.P. baby and crying throughout, I did what I discussed with dad last week and ignored the whinging (I HATE using this word but not sure what else to put, don't mean it in horrible way, just the sort of cry which is her just wanting her own way) and wanting me to be right next to her on the floor. I sat on the chair, letting her stand holding me if she wanted but refusing to pick her up unless she had a need, and I focused on drawing lots of hearts on shiny card then cutting them (for the sticking table). It really didn't take her long AT ALL to see I was doing other things but still talking to her etc. and she went off and played She had lots of smiles for me so SHE was happier too and not one lot of SCREAMING, just whinging from time to time. I'm soooooooooo happy Had her sat at the table for apple and banana at snacktime and eventually got from kneeling level to standing up which was so much better for bump and my back!! Can't believe she's going to be 1 this week!! Anyway, this is MAJOR progress, everyone at group noticed and I'm just in such a good mood for it. We did some sticking and have a nice big heart with lots of little hearts for mummy and daddy and she's fast asleep in bed so it's a late lunch today.
So, if you don't mind.....I'll have 5 mins in the staffroom to see what food is about (fancy some of crace's brunch, sounds YUM!)
KS - enjoy your day off. Poor mindee
SB - cheers Oh, can I have a nibble on some shortbread when it's cooled too please
franny - deffo listen to Katy. She knows her stuff!
Rose - I nearly fainted at those prices!!!
Saz - they've obviously messed up and should have put 3 (i.e. 4 including your ds but he should NOT be included on the cert). Have you sorted out what you need to with other mindees? (msn me when you get a mo)
Is Shosh ok? I think I'll msn her whilst I am on my own, not heard much from her lately!
Byeeeeeeeeee
