Swimming and Nani picked up her car

Sofia woke up at 5am today, but she snoozed until 6am when I got her. She had a feed and a snack and then we played for a little bit before I made brekky for everyone. Nani Claire had spent the night and Mike had most of the day off, so I had goo help with Sofia in the morning. They were going to pick up Nani’s car at 12pm… Mike went for a workout a the gym and Nani played with Sofia before it was time for the little girl’s morning nap.

When Sofia woke up daddy had some more work to get done, so Nani and I played with the little one. Then it was time for Sofia and I to go to swimming. Today was the first day at swimming where Sofia was acting up and fighting what we were doing. The swim-teacher said; ‘yeah, she’s definitely testing you’. It was a bit of a trying session. It was nice afterwards though as we sat down with Venessa and Tate from mothers group. We got to talk for a little bit whilst the kids were running around. Not that easy to talk when you continuously have to go grab your little one, but nice nevertheless. When we got back it was 1pm. We had a look at Nani’s new car, then she left and I fed Sofia a late lunch before putting her to bed. Sofia slept till 3pm – I woke her up (as I read that they shouldn’t sleep passed 3pm to be tired enough to go to bed and sleep through the night). We’ll see if that is right or not I suppose.

Sofia had my undivided attention for an hour and a bit. We read books, raced around the house on her red ride, played instruments etc. Then I started making dinner. Sofia was sooo good. She came into the kitchen for a bit of attention a couple of times, then a nice long cuddle towards the end…. but then she wanted mummy. It was ok though as there wasn’t much left to do. We had dinner and towards the end Mike got home and sat down with us. Then we got her ready for bed. Sofia didn’t protest, but it was almost 7pm before she fell asleep.
