Old Harry's game

Sleep

Elliott had a nap for about a half hour today. He fell asleep in the car on the way back from Salisbury and so after we got home I stayed in the car while he slept for a while.

He went to bed at 7.15pm and went to sleep quite quickly.

Food

Elliott had Rice Crispies for breakfast.

He had sauasge sandwiches and breadsticks for lunch.

He had spaghetti bolognese and a yoghurt for tea.

He had some biscuits for snacks as elevenses and tea. 

Toilet

He had 2 set accidents during the day - 1 in the morning in the park and 1 in the afternoon at home. Other than this he was brilliant.

He did his poo before he got dressed so still had his nappy on today!

Naughtiness

Overall he was really good today, although towards the end of the day he was a little difficult but was visibly tired. He also didn't want to leave the park today when we were with Matt and Harry so I had a chat with him on a bench - but he responded very well to this. No time outs needed today. 

Activities

We went to visit Matt, Lara, Harry and Albert in the morning. Lots of playing and some gentle baby cuddling from Elliott to begin with. Then we went to Victoria Park with Matt and Harry where there was a lot of football, some golf and lots of slides / swings / climbing frame, etc. Then it was back to their house for lunch and some outdoor play. All really good fun and he was really well behaved with Harry and shared quite well. He did play up a bit when it was time to leave the park and their house, but on both occasions quickly started behaving better after some focused words.

In the afternoon we went into Salisbury with Granny to do some shopping. We went to Clarks and got his feet measured (between 8 and 8.5, so haven't grown that much officially!) and then we bought some new sandals. Then we went for some coffee and he chose water and drank from a bottle very well.

After we got home plenty of playing with toys and some watching Humf - and we did some alphabet recognition and he got pretty good with a, b and l - though be interesting to see if he remembers.
