"Sorry Mama..."

Whilst the Dolls are the most wonderful, fun, happy, warm and precious little treasures, they can also be absolute monsters; for anyone familiar with the television programme Charlie and Lola, Lulu is a carbon copy of Lola (incredibly bright, inquisitive, talkative and imaginative); but she also has a side to her which is positively demonic.

This morning, after an 'I am absolutely not wearing anything at all apart from just a feather boa even though it is snowing' battle (the Lola side), Lulu then shifted into demon-mode and proceeded to cause complete meltdown (with Izzy as her sidekick) and emptied her entire wardrobe onto the floor in a mad crazy tantrum.

Mama has always been far too soft on the Dolls; the main problem is that I'm still in some sort of dreamy 'I can't believe I have this amazing, wonderful baby' state (which most people snap out of a couple of days after arriving home with their little bundle); they are just so wonderful and I still can't believe that they are mine. However, occasionally, it is necessary to come down on them like a ton of bricks; and this morning was one of those occasions.

Here is Lulu saying sorry (eventually)...the little monkey.
