The cast came off yesterday.Amelia was so brave .. no problems at all. As long as she can get it straight and starts using it properly within the next few weeks - no more appointments are needed. It was so dry flakey & limp yesterday - but its nice to have a proper bath without the 'crab claw' dressing - and we had the play sand out in the garden today which they both loved .. though half a ton of it was tipped down the back of my trousers while I was planting out some veg!
Funny thing is - she is still walking round with it bent in front of her like its still in the cast! And she isnt really using the hand yet, to eat or draw etc - she got so used to not having full use of the arm - she is even sleeping with it bent across her!
Lucy has had a few rough days - terrible teething at the weekend - and the MMR today (cant wait for that reaction ) - but there is no excuse for the strop she threw this morning after not being allowed a biscuit...
She has the little stroppiest temper I have ever seen. And its so hard not to laugh at her!
She is also refusing to kiss anyone - she teases us with a little pucker but shakes her head and turns away at the last minute..
She looks ridiculous in her sisters hair clip and my necklace - but they both love dressing up!!
Amelia-ism of the Day
'Mummy why do we have Mummies and Daddies? Why cant we just look after ourselves?'
'Mummy - can I look at those men with bones in their tummy?' (A pic of some footballers in their pants in the Sun - she meant their tummy muscles!!)
''Mummy - why dont slugs like slug gel?' 'Because it smells like slug pooh. No one likes the smell of pooh' 'But why does Tom put it on his head?' Poor Amelia getting very confused between the slug repellent and Toms hair gel - to be fair - i dont see much difference!!
