Ran out of steam

Friday, September 22, 2006

Lill was up and at it around 8am this morning. I did a good job of sleeping in and therefore Lill was late for her day care. She seemed great when I dropped her off but when I went to pick her up at 4.30pm she looked a little tired and sooky.
She wanted to be picked up abd cuddled as soon as I walked in the door and was pretty keen to go home.
The girls said she had a great day, painting outside and is quite the dancer, they were playing Ricky Martin and she boogied her toosh off.
Once we were home she continued to be quite sooky and polished off 2 full juice bottles in no time. I started on dinner, one of the kids favourite dishes (creamy bacon fettuchine) but half way through cooking I noticed it was extremely quite, when I went looking for Lill she had put herself to bed, which is very unlike Lilly's normal behaviour so I knew my girl was not feeling the best and most likely coming down with a flu.
When she saw me in her room she decided to get back up and waited ever so patiently for her dinner.
Once dinner was served she was disinterested so I changed her for bed and Josh read her a story. Lilly was asleep in no time.
We had Bonnie and Ashleigh over for a few drinks and about 9pm we heard a sweet little voice talking in the hallway ... Lilly must have refuelled from her little nap, she was quite happy to have a milk but then went straight back to sleep on the couch. Once everyone had left I placed her back into bed. I heard her screaming terribly around 3am and went in to stroke her head and kiss her gently, reassuring her everything was ok, she drifted back off to sleep again.
