Not sure what is wrong, if i've had a virus or something but im so tired at the moment.
Which isn't helped by the fact that Miles is also tired today. He was playing with his toy kitchen last yesterday before bed and made me a pretend cup of tea.. i asked if it has milk and he said yep, so i said ahh Mummy doesnt have milk in tea so off he went to make another lol.. then he asked if Daddy had milk in his tea and i said yes he does, so he pops one of his litlte cups from his kitchen up on the counter and said thats for daddy. I asked if it was tea with milk and he said no its just a cup of milk!! Ok then.... i said as soon as Daddy gets home, i will tell him you made him some milk.
Took him to bed, which i do on my own pretty much every night now as Jonathan works late mostly now and gets home around 7-8pm. 4 nights a week, comes home a little earlier on a Friday, about 5 -6 pm so usually in time for bathtime.. even though he cant manage to bath both kids so i have to help!!!
Anyway Greta had had a late nap so wasnt ready for bed at her usual 6.30pm so i took Miles and sat Greta in his room and read Miles a couple of stories and Greta went to bed after him at about 6.50pm.
Now jonathan went to the local shopping centre to get a step for Miles to get up to the toilet - he is totally potty trained now :) but was nervous of getting up on the toilet as his little step wasnt high enough for him.. anyway he got home around 9pm and 5 mins later Miles comes walking into the room - J must have woken him. He came in and crawled up onto J's lap and mumbled something - which we discovered in his half asleep state was "Daddy i made you a cup of milk" Bless him, he had wanted to get up and tell him he had made him milk.. So then i took him back to bed. 20 mins later i went into the main bathroom of the hosuse which is next to Miles' bedroom to put the new toilet step in there and as i walked past Miles says " Hi mummy" so no clue how long he had been awake - but he is one sleepy litlte man today.
Greta is also tired, no idea why she was only 20 mins late to bed and got up at her usual time. I had to take jonathan to the station as he had left his motorbike at work as it was raining in the city when he left. Anyway she screamed the entire way home! about 20 mins away. So i tried to hold her hand, but that didnt help - then Miles decided he wanted to hold me hand anyway - so im trying to drive - a manual car!, 1 handed while holding Miles hand - and Greta is still screaming. SO i pull over and hand her a rusks. She goes quiet while she contemplates that so i drive off again - then she decides she doesnt want it and crumple it into the crumbs.
So then i decide to ask Miles to pull funny faces at her as that always makes her laugh - but he is too tired and just wants to hold my hand and cuddle his teddy bear.
Then i think i will switch the radio on and sing to her - she loves me to sing to her..so the only DVD i have to hand is Jonathan Bon Jovi - not exactly lulaby material! anyway she hates it and still screams and Miles is complaining its too loud - she is still screaming the car down. Then Miles decides to start pulling his silly faces at her - and she giggles a couple of times before continuing to scream - by this time we are home almost anyway.
Get her out and give her a HUGE cuddle.. poor little love, i hate hearing her upset. Brought her in and put her to bed.
Im going to go do a little hosueworrk soon, just waiting for her to nod off.
Miles is laying on the lounge in our snug watching handy manny - not sure what to do today as its raining. Was going to take them to the park and take the soccer ball for a kick around and they have a huge sandpit there too thats both kids love - hmm what to do. Might be the indoor play centre - if i can get my house work done quickly.
We are going to Whale beach tomorrow i think - hope the rain stays away.
Miles woke with a totally dry nappy this morning - he is doing so so well at potty training, i am so proud of him. Hes taken to it like a duck to water and LOVES his reward chart that we made for him.
Hope Greta is in a good mood when she wakes, she was in a great mood yesterday and wandered around the hosue and played by herself so well all day - went in and outside and played in the cubby house - she LOVES the cubby house. Miles has never really bothered with it but she spends all day in there. Only thing was if she saw me standing she would literalyl throw herself at my feet and scream to be picked up! But if i was sitting she would be fine and wander and play by herself.
So i sat a lot yesterday lol and sorted clothes and made shopping lists and read library books with Miles..
and played scrabble online with friends :o)
The day before yesterday she was not happy to play by herself and screamed the way through the ENTIRE day, so i spent much of the day with her on my hip - which is cool, she is such an easy baby i cant grumble when she has a bad day - we all do. and snuggles are great :)
here is a pic of her - this is how she spent pretty much the WHOLE day:
She has totally got the hang of standing and cruising the furniture though in the lat couple of days - a pic:
Parents arrive in 5 weeks and 6 days :) CANNOT wait! We are going on a little holiday to Canberra and Merimbula :)
EB catch up is also being arranged for this/next month - always look forward to that :)
Thats all really, hope Greta is asleep so i can go rattle around in the kitchen and clean.
Oh no spoke too soon, she is awake i hear her yelling - best go see if i can settle her to sleep, she is so tired she needs to nap badly!
