Disappointment in Basingstoke

Sleep

Elliott woke at 7.10am.

After lunch on the way to Basingstoke in the car Elliott had a nap for about 50 minutes.

He went to bed at 7.30pm and went to sleep quickly.

Food

Elliott had Rice Crispies for breakfast.

He had ham, potatoes and beans for lunch with a yoghurt pudding.

For tea he had some toast.

He had a biscuit for a snack in the morning.

Toilet

All his weeing was really good today. He did no poo at all today.

Naughtiness

Just one naughty part of the day today - in Basingstoke he refused to put his seat belt on when we'd got back into the car for ages. I did a lot of chatting and explaining and eventually he did put it on, but we came very close to a time out! 

Activities

In the morning we did a lot of playing in Downton. We did some puzzles, made a puppet (he got really involved with this), played with cars, watched some Milkshake programmes and did some football in the garden.

After lunch we went back to Reading and the plan was to stop off at the milestones museum in Basingstoke to break up the journey. Unfortunately when we got to the museum we discovered it wasn't open on Mondays! This was the point when Elliott got a little frustrated and refused to put his seat belt back on in the car. Eventually though we got going again and stopped off at a Morrisons where we bought a new Thomas book and had a drink in the cafe while reading the new book.

When we got back to Reading we played with brio for a while before it was time for bed routine.

No pictures from today due to museum being closed and other activities being pretty normal!
