Pops was really good yesterday, Jill arrived at just before 9.30am and very kindly took Poppy for a walk in her pushchair to feed the ducks, she said she was walking round the lake talking to her about the ducks when she realised Poppy was actually fast asleep! Jill then realised that Pops had dropped her snuggly and had to retrace her steps to look for it. Luckily she located it on the path, slightly muddy but not too bad so that will go in the wash next time I put a load on. Jill and I had a cup of tea and a chat while Poppy slept on, she did not wake up until about 12.30 so had a good sleep which she obviously needed. You can always tell when Poppy is tired, she grabs hold of her dummy and pops it in her mouth then starts to look for her snuggly. She has discovered that her dummy is in the 3rd draw down in the kitchen and goes to find it for herself! Emma only likes her to have it for when she sleeps so I may have to move its location!
When Gray got home we sat in the garden for a short while and Poppy was able to play with the new sand and water table we got her. She was putting the sand into the bucket to make a sandcastle. I half expected her to throw it around the patio but she was very good and played nicely. Huge black clouds started to come over and the wind was blowing, it was getting cold so we decided to go in, Poppy did not want to go inside, she wanted to carry on playing with the "seaside"!! She calmed down when we let her take the new ladybird garden ornament in with her, she loves ladybirds, it looks like her christening cake may be a ladybird! As by this time she was looking tired again we decided to go out for a ride in the car as I needed a couple of things, wondering if she would have a sleep. Fifteen minutes into our journey she was fast asleep and slept for the whole way. When we got home that first thing she said was "seaside" but as it was pouring with rain by that time it was not the best idea! We distracted her with something else and she was fine playing with her farm until tea time.
Poppy was very pleased to see her Mummy when she arrived to pick her up. She showed her the ladybird garden ornament and her new farm animals. She then filled her nappy. She then did something which amazed us both, when she has her nappy changed she likes to watch the Mickey Mouse club on tv so she said "Please Mommy, please Grandma, Mickey" and handed me the remote control!!
Ah bless.
