Sofia’s runny nose and trip to Pablo’s X-mas stay

Sofia woke me with her sounds at 5am, but she must have been still half asleep because she didn’t start crying until 5.30am. I went in and breastfed her so she could maybe get a bit more sleep in, but she didn’t. Poor girl, she started with a runny nose yesterday, but this morning it kept running… She was still smiling and in a good mood, but not very active and wanting cuddles and books more than anything. Sofia had breakfast at 7.15am and then was rubbing her eyes like crazy and looking so tired I put her to sleep. She felt like she had a slight fever so I gave her some neurofen. She fell asleep instantly. Poor my sweet little girl – I hope she gets a good nap in. Up again at 8.15 (only 30min). Mike got up then too.

When Sofia got up we got ready and got all of us in the car. We drove to see the lady that will be taking care of Pablo whilst we are celebrating Christmas at Trish and Bill’s house. She seemed very nice and her little puddle Bonnie was very sweet. I really hope Pablo won’t be a bully :(. 2 minutes into the visit he peed on the outdoor tiles, then the mattress that was laid out for poor Bonnie, and he even managed to get a third tinkle in! Sooooo embarrassing :(. In his defence the lady said Bonnie pees out there as well (and it did smell a bit like pee, but still…). Afterwards we started going for a walk around the old neighbourhood and Sofia got to play in the bark/grass for a little while. Then she was getting very tired and we decided to get in the car and get driving so she could get some sleep. Sofia did fall asleep and we kept driving until she woke up.

When Sofia woke up I played with her whilst Mike got dinner ready. Sofia and I also had a quick chat to Mormor and Morfar. Sofia really light up – so nice :). After dinner we went through the nighttime routine.

Sofia had a couple of seriously massive poos… (a bit looser than normal)…. She also started leaking at the mouth later in the day, so she must be teething poor thing.
