Big man in the model village

Sleep

Elliott woke at about 6.30am.

Elliott had an short afternoon nap around 2pm for about an hour.

He went to bed at 8pm with no problems.

Food

Elliott had oats mix for breakfast.

He had marmite sandwiches for lunch and a biscuit for pudding.

For tea he had spaghetti bolognese, garlic bread and yoghurt. He didn't eat all his bolgnese, but did have a good go at finishing it.

He also had some extra biscuits during the day.

Toilet

Elliott had 1 "dirty" nappy that was quite solid.

He sat on his potty well during nappy changes and before bath time but there was no product again. 

Naughtiness

Elliott had no time outs today, though was a little hyper just before bed. However a combination of firm tone of voice and counting did the trick.

Activities

In the morning we went to the Corfe Castle model village with Granny and Grandpa. This was really good fun for all of us, and there was life size Connect Four, a nature area, talking life size guards and lots of other features as well as the actual model village. Elliott really enjoyed himself and did a lot of running around. He was paticularly taken with a train made out of wooden logs for little people and was "driving" this a lot. We took his bike with us as well so he did some cycling around the streets of Corfe.

On the way back home we also stopped for a picnic lunch of sandwiches and pink juice.

After his nap we played with the marble run, the play dough (he made 7 lions!), did 3 different jig saws, played with fire engines and other cars, watched some Fireman Sam, played some football, etc. He was in good spirits, though a little over tired just before bed time as referenced above.
