To say that 'Leila got up on the wrong side of bed today' would be an understatement. It feels like she has been a gringey mood _all_day. To be fair to the poor kid she had a really bad night's sleep - she woke around midnight and wandered into our room (sleep walking?), but turned straight round with me and I tucked her back in. But then she was calling out in her sleep just before 5am with a nightmare. Scott went into her and tucked her in and she calmed down, but he then couldn't get back to sleep and she then woke about 6.15am which is her normal time.
But all morning she didn't really want to do anything we suggested play-wise, and then when Sofia came round for a play date she spent most of the time gringe-crying that she wanted what she had, wanted to play together / on own etcetc.
We had a late lunch and nap started late - she was exhausted. But then similar gringeyness in the afternoon.
And this evening.
And then when she should finally be tired she then gets out of bed a dozen times for me before finally settling down to sleep.
There were some fun moments interspersed today though. With Scott, she has devised a game of playing 'Pooh' - her latest favourite video and story. One Ted plays the part of Pooh, and has a blown-up balloon on his wrist. He then visits Rabbit and eats honey and get stuck in a hole (normally under my legs). We then all sing the song, march around and then heave-ho him out and into the hole in the honey tree. Leila sometimes pays the role of Pooh. This was all great fun today until the point when we didn't quite have Pooh (played by Leila) land in exactly the right spot in the honey tree (we were out my cm I reckon).
