Poppy arrived in her pyjamas and dressing gown yesterday morning as Mummy had to get her out of bed, she had no choice and could not wait any longer for her to wake as she had to get to work. I had her breakfast ready, she ate every scrap which was lovely, and then I got her dressed.
We had some visitors, Jill, Sarah and Georgia mid morning and Poppy did some drawing with Georgia for a while though by 11am she was flagging and everyone could see how tired she was. I knew she obviously would not get to sleep on the sofa as she often does, with everybody there, so I asked if she wanted to go upstairs to bed. She was by the stairgate immediately and waved goodbye to everyone as she mounted the stairs with me behind her making sure she did not fall. Almost as soon as her head hit the pillow she was asleep. She must have been tired, it was almost 2.30pm before she woke up!
She was eating a rather late lunch when Grandad arrived, but so engrossed in Pippin the dog on tv that she did not notice him until he put his head in front of the screen! She ate all her lunch, it is lovely to see her with her appetite back, when she gets ill with her chest her appetite goes and it can be a problem to get her to eat anything at all, so when she is eating well it is a relief!
As soon as she finished eating Grandad was pressed into service playing the train game which involves running round and round the coffee table calling choo choo and waving at me and the dogs as she passes! Grandad keeps on trying to sit down and have a rest but he has no chance!
We asked her if she would like to go out for a walk but she was too engrossed in playing with her farm and dolls house. Oh to be a child again.
