Nearly Bedtime

Still feeling rotten today, not helped by the fact hubbie and I both woke around 4am and couldn't get back to sleep and then Ethan decided 5.50am would be a good time for him to get up!

I'd taken today as annual leave though so once hubbie took Ethan to nursery, I curled up in bed again for another few hours.

I did manage to get a bit of housework done and also ventured down the shops to buy my sisters birthday present. Turns out she was down the Centre the same time as me and even texted me a photo of my car in the car park haha!

Ethan was playing up at dinner time again. He refuses to sit at the table for more than a few minutes at a time. We've started threatening to put him to bed early if he doesn't sit nicely and eat a little bit which usually works (for a few minutes anyway). Today I did take him up to his bed because he just wouldn't listen. We only leave him for up to 5 minutes before bringing him down again but today, after a couple of minutes of crying, all went quiet. And then ... footsteps on the stairs! He had only managed to climb out of his cot, open his bedroom door and make his way back downstairs, looking VERY pleased with himself! We're now thinking we might have to convert his cot to a cotbed sooner than we'd hoped!
