The Egg Box Prince

Isabel is going through a bit of a tough time at the moment. We think she has a uti and she's been generally under the weather. Now in theory this is nothing a few antibiotics can't solve but this is my stubborn whirlwind of a daughter. It's worse than giving tablets to a cat. If we try to give her anything direct she fights and screams and if you manage to get anything in her she gags and is sick. Trying to hide it in food failed miserably. I am taking it as a lesson in listening and going with the wait and see approach. She had a temperature above 39 yesterday but today it's back under 38 without any meds. She's pretty vocal about not wanting a nappy on when she's in the house and will sometimes use the potty (and if not, well the carpet has seen better days anyway). In the main she's her happy cheerful self as long as the world is going her way. She just needs lots of cuddles and lots of mummy time. We will see how it goes in the next day or so.

She certainly had fun in the park this morning.

Isaac appeared with a crown this afternoon.

And insisted I take a photo whilst he posed for the camera!
