Easter Eggs.

Emma had to take Poppy to the doctors this morning for her asthma check at 9am so decided to come round here straight after the visit, they arrived at 9.20 just as I was getting dressed! Poppy had cheered up everybody in the doctors waiting room by waving and smiling at all and sundry! When the doctor had to pull up her vest to listen to her chest she pointed to her tummy and cried "belly button" which are some of her favourite words of the moment! She was not keen on the doctor touching her with his cold hands and his cold stethoscope, the radiator was not working in his room and he had been unable to warm up his hands!

Jill and her girls had Easter eggs for Poppy and so wanted to know if she would be here this morning so they could bring them round for her. Jill arrived about 10.30 after helping a neighbour push the caravan off their drive, ready to go away for the Easter break. Emma and I were watching the antics from the window! Jills girls arrived a little later and so Poppy now has 4 easter eggs to take home, 3 from Jill and her girls, plus some wax crayons and a sketch book to draw in, and one from a very kind neighbour. We gave her Easter eggs to take home the other day, we bought Poppy a Peppa Pig egg with a plate, bowl and spoon set to use when the egg is eaten.

After her busy morning Poppy was getting quite tired by about 11.30 so Emma got her lunch ready and sat her in the highchair with a sandwich. She managed to eat one of her sandwiches before falling fast asleep in the highchair! A combined operation to get her out of the chair carefully without waking her too much ensued and Emma managed to get her lying down on the sofa where she dropped straight off to sleep again. She only managed about an hour before she awoke though she obviously had not had quite enough sleep and was still a little tired when she woke up. She has gone out for a ride in the pushchair with her Mummy, Grandad and the three dogs to feed the ducks, clutching a bag of bread. I wonder if she will have fallen asleep in her pushchair by the time they return.

Emma and I have been looking through my cake decorating books to see which cake we shall be attempting for the christening. She can`t choose between a ladybird, Mickey Mouse, a rabbit, oh dear the list goes on! This could take some time!
