Tent morning

Sleep

Elliott woke at 5am in the tent, but went back to sleep until 6.20am.

He had a nap in the car on the way home for about an hour and a half.

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

Food

Elliott had cheerios for breakfast.

He had chicken nuggets and beans for lunch.

For tea he had toast with marmite and a yoghurt pudding.

He had a biscuit for an afternoon snack at a service station on the way home.

Toilet

He had no accidents today and 2 different lots of poos. 

Naughtiness

He was really good all day apart from one incident in the afternoon after we got home. We were on our way to the park and I'd just popped to the toilet myself and could hear him throwing his cars about in a really destructive way. So I asked him not to and explained it wasn't good for the cars or the floor and he did it again in front of me. So we had a time out, which he responded to really well.

Activities

After we woke we played in the tent for a while, hiding in the sleeping bag, and bouncing on the blow up mattress (him, not me).

Then we went in for breakfast and watched some television with Lucas, Billy and baby Isaac (Jim, Hannah and Jack didn't stay over night - but Billy and Chas also stayed in a tent in the garden with us). Then there was lots of playing while we all got up properly - inside and out, and again he really seemed to be getting on brilliantly with Billy, and they were playing very nicely together and even doing some imagining together.

Eventually we got going after an early lunch and he slept for quite a long time during the car journey. But it was a really good journey again and when he was awake we listened to some Noddy stories which he seemed to really enjoy.

After we got back we did some playing with cars and some drawing before we went out to the local park for an hour or so. 

After we got back it was time for tea and normal bedtime routine.
