Hannah asked me to write down exactly what jude did today without her, she missed him loads, so here is the story hb,
Jude woke up at five to six, bright as a button, chatting
away to himself. Changed his nappy and gave him a cuddle and read his fav book
for a while, before going through to living room to wake granddad.
I made up his bottle while granddad took charge of jude and
then i settled down to give him his feed which he enjoyed while granddad a took
a shower and dressed. We got him into
highchair for breakfast; i went to have a shower and get ready when i got back,
he had eaten toast, scrambled egg,
fruit, and drank his water.
We got jude dressed in chinos and tshirt and granddad took
him up to the village for a walk, posted your parcel and got dinner for
tonight.
I meanwhile was
tidying and washing up and then trying to do some work for Karen – got v
frustrated as i couldn’t figure it out.
G came back – jude had only just gone to sleep – he was too busy finding
out what was going on in the village and chatting up the locals .... he only
slept for a while so we brought out the cot/play pen on the front lawn, put in
his toys and let him play while G tried to drink a cup of tea and read his book
– hahah, no such luck!
By this time it was lunch hour, and we heated a jar of
something or other spaghetti i think...
jude enjoyed it, for pudding he had lots of fruit and then while later he had a
bottle – drank all up! Changed nappy, put him in his buggy and off we went to
the park. He had a lovely time on the swings, then G took him
on the slide which he loved. We then
walked towards the nature reserve but before we got very far jude had gone to
sleep. Chance to have some lunch –
8bells right there- so we sat in the pub garden (only ones there) and ordered a
cold drink and a baguette. Lovely. Jude
woke up as we walked home, sun was shining, sky gorgeous blue.
G put the carrycot/play pen out on the back garden as the
sun had moved round by then. He sat
happily looking at his books and trying to claw his way out at the same
time! G brought the high chair out and
we gave him his tea – heated pouch of some vegetable stuff, and then lovely
yoghurt with bits of pears in it. Ate it all up.
There was a lovely
moment when jude heard the birds singing in the trees – he seemed mesmerised by
them and the look on his little face was magical. We just looked at each in amazement. Very special moment.
Jude started Teeth
grinding- they seemed to be bothering him. Took him indoors and i ran him a
bath while G changed nappy. Put him in
the lovely warm bubbly water with his toys and gave him a lovely wash
especially his dinner face! Then it was
time to lift him out and wrap him in a warm towel and get him into his pj’s.
Made up a bottle while G gave him a cuddle – just settled
down to give it to him and his Daddy arrived! Jude was so pleased to see him
and daddy finished giving him his bottle while we packed away ALL his stuff.
Then it was time to see goodbye, missing him already!
Thank you for a super day, tired but happily
so................xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
