Double Shot Mummy

Manic!

The title describes today. This is possibly my worst photo ever; at least the noodles are in focus and Maple enjoyed them too. She enjoyed salmon today too.

Maple has had a watery eye for a few days and I wanted to check something so we went to City Hospital where she was born. She was weighed and her height taken. She comes in at 9.4kg, (20lb, 13oz!). She is on the 91st percentile for weight. Her height is well off the charts.... she is 79cm tall.... that is the average height for a 16 month old according to the UK charts. My one wish for her in relation to this is that she is not taller than me. I am 6 foot and I worry she would get bullied at school if she were taller. You have probably picked up, however, I worry about everything. Apart from that, developmentally all is going great. She is sitting 'like a 7 month old'. She was more than 4 weeks early so perfect.

Oscar isn't well. He was up half the night (As was Maple). Oscar has a husky voice and a sore throat. I took him to the Doctor at Family First Medical Centre. He has a viral bug and Laryngitis as part of it. I can't complain, this is his first time being ill in the 8 months we have been here!

We also went present shopping for a 3rd birthday party tomorrow. Bought some pecan dates at Bateel too. I scoffed them down, (Gave two to Oscar).

I went to bed tonight utterly exhausted. Stu is sleeping with Oscar tonight in the spare room so that he and Maple don't disturb each other and we get some form of sleep.
