My Pal Violet arrived

Had a bit of an unsettled evening where Eva seemed to bring another burp up each time I winded her, even though each time I thought she was thoroughly 'winded' so each time winding was the last resort but seemed to be the issue lol. Then had a bit of success when she woke at 2 am, I just put her dummy in, stroked her face and said shhhhhh and gave her snuggle bear back, and she went back off to sleep til 4 am when I gave her a quick feed and she slept til 9 am then.

She ate a fair bit of her oat and apple at brekkie too, and properly chomped on some toast and kiwi. She also managed to get oat and apple in her eyelashes, round her ear and in her hair. Funny as I was spoon feeding that to her lol.

My Pal Violet arrived today (I posted a video to YouTube of her meeting her for the first time on my Mykirastarsib channel) it's one of the things for her new room. Mike and I have sat programming it this evening with her name, her favourite food (kiwi), favourite animal (cat), favourite colour (obviously we don't know but we selected pink) and songs, in categories like daytime songs, singalong songs and bedtime songs. You can also set it to play lullabies for 2 minutes, 5 minutes or 10 minutes. I think she is going to LOVE her.

Mike cracked how to give her Calpol tonight just before her bath. Let her hold the syringe with it in, and guide her hand, and she puts it in her own mouth, then he gently released bit at a time. So letting her pretty much do it herself has worked. She's taking this BLW a bit far here I think lol.

One thing she's being doing over the last few nights again, as I'm feeding her her milk and settling her down for the night, is coming at my face with her mouth wide open and a glint in her eye, the little monkey. She's trying to bite/suck my face. She's nearly laughing as she does it too. It's hilarious when she does it but I have to try my hardest not to laugh and to say "No, Eva!" She has actually sucked my cheek a few times and it's such a funny sensation. I bet it would hurt if them 2 ikkle tussies got hold, so I'm trying not to give her the opportunity xxx
