Cold and boredom!!

Thursday 8th October 2009

Not a very good week as i still have my nasty cold and cough so we have not been able to do very much this week. no swimming and no play groups. In a bid to cheer me up mummy bought me a magazine when we went to the shops - it was a Teletubbies magazine and was really good, there were loads of stickers in it, some colouring in and some stories as well. i never used to like stickers very much as they would stick to me and i could never get them off, but now i have learnt how to stick them properly i think they are great fun. Mummy now lets me put the stamps and air mail stickers on all of the cards we send back to the UK - i usually get them in the right place with a bit of help from mummy, but sometimes things end up a bit lop-sided or upside down!!

At the weekend we were busy skyping people again and daddy and I went for a bike ride which was good fun. We also had a nice walk down to the East Coast on Sunday and a lovely roast dinner, which i sadly did not eat very much of. The good news on that front is that i am starting to get my appetite back, I was refusing fruit and even yoghurt during the week, which as regular readers of my blog will know is not like me at all. I think I have survived the last week mainly on pineapple juice and frothy milk!!

In another attempt to cheer me (and possibly mummy) up we did some baking as we could not go out to music class. We made some yummy chocolate buns - which i actually think might have been the thing that made my appetite back - mummy had to hide them in the top cupboard in the end as i kept grabbing her hand and pointing at them on the side. Mmmm, chocolate buns and frothy milk - anyone else drooling?!

Well that really was all we did this week - short walks, naps and much more tv watching than is recommended for 20 month old toddlers. Promise that next weeks blog will be completely action packed - starting with a 2nd birthday party tomorrow -mmm, more cake!!

Love and chocolate kisses

PS This weeks photo is of me in my Leitrim shirt that Shaun, Marie and baby Hannah sent over for me. As you can see daddy has a matching one - and yes we did go out together wearing them!!! Mummy did not have one so she had to stay at home!!!
