Pampering and birthday party

Sofia woke me up at about 6.20am. I got her and made brekky. Afterwards we all went for a walk with Pablo. When we got back I got everything ready and took her to swimming. She was very clingy again today; wrapped around me like a koala. She did not want to loosen the grip. Then we did a ‘fall’ from higher place into the water – and then all if a sudden it was MORE! They also did a run on the mat which landed her in the water and she screamed MORE again ha ha. Funny and nice to see her loosen up a bit like that. When we got home we had an early lunch and I put her to bed (at about 11am).
Whilst Sofia was asleep Mike and I went through more boxes in the garage. Then Mike continued whilst I went for a 2 hour pampering session – paid for by my wonderful parents (thank you very much!). It was absolutely wonderful! Just what I needed :).
When I got back Mike had gone for a dump run and Nani was there watching Sofia. Thank you Nani :). She left and Mike got back not long after. I played with Sofia. Then we went shopping for a present for Maja and some finger food for the party. Sofia was having a meltdown every time she didn’t get her way – pretty exhausting for all of us.
When we got back Mike prepared dinner. Nani came to babysit. Then it was time for Sofia to have a bath and then bedtime. She was protesting a bit initially, but was ok when we left. 
We had a nice time at Maja and Shane’s. Great with a bit of adult company without kids screaming/ pulling at you for attention.
Sofia woke up crying just before midnight. I went in and gave her a nice cuddle before putting her back down. She seemed ok with it, but then 30min later she was still not sleeping so Mike went in for a cuddle. Sofia was still not asleep 15 min later…
