2012: Week 24

Saturday 9 June

Auntie Clare came to visit this weekend and we didn't take a single photos of anyone but Daisy! Typical... She liked the fact that the sofa was a bed when she got downstairs this morning, and insisted on singing the sleeping bunnies song before we put the bed away.

Sunday 10 June

Daisy found it hilarious to lie at the bottom of the stairs and stamp the wall with her feet. I found her in this position a few times this week. Maybe it's where she does her best thinking.

Monday 11 June

There's a story behind Betsy the Cow but I've tried to put it succinctly and can't, so suffice to say that it wasn't intended for Daisy but we ended up with two, so she got one of them. Her immediate reaction, and hardly a surprising one, was 'No cow.' She did warm to her eventually though, and even sat on her for a moment or two, but this was the best photo I could get as a second later she had got off and decided that cow riding was not for her.

Tuesday 12 June

She does, however, like carrying Betsy from room to room. 'Mind yer backs, lads!'

Wednesday 13 June

Daisy has had a cough and a snotty nose for a couple of days, but she threw up at Toddlers this morning - thankfully only on the floor, not on anyone else. I took her home and by the evening she had a temperature of 101. The middle of the day, however, she was fine; she loved sitting on the kitchen counter watching me attempt to make the lunch one-handed while also ensuring that she didn't fall off.

Thursday 14 June

Daisy's temperature was back to normal by this morning, but she was incredibly tired and I had already decided not to take her to nursery when she threw up her breakfast. So we had a quiet day at home, and again, apart from the time she spent vomiting, the rest of the day she was fine. Here she is taking her own temperature again, just to be sure.

Friday 15 June

Another vomiting incident this morning, this time all over me. And herself, and the blanket that covers the chair in her bedroom, and a cushion, and a couple of her books, and the floor. Same as before, the rest of the day she was fine, but we stuck to crackers and water so as not to induce another episode. I didn't take her to the doctor as we've been before for this sort of thing, and their advice is just to keep her hydrated and see it through, so that's what we'll do. I still managed to get this beautiful shot of her this morning. Get well soon, baby girl :).
