General
Elliott was really good all day today, although in the morning I think he felt like he needed a poo but wasn't able to go a couple of times which seemed to make him a bit upset. However as soon as he had been he was much happier again.
Activities
In the morning we went out for a bit and did some scootering.
Then at lunchtime we went for a meal with Granny and Grandpa.
After lunch we went to a family friendly pub with Graham, Tim and Emily Chandler and Tim Fawcett and his girlfriend and he was really good. We managed to play some football, rugby and pool.

Wrapping presents
General
Elliott was really good all day today and got dressed very quickly and nicely when asked this morning!
Activities
In the morning we went last minute present shopping in Salisbury and Elliott was really good - except he found it really difficult to keep the presents Granny was buying secret from me.
In the afternoon we went scootering along the Salisbury Town Path to Elizabeth Gardens playground and when we got home Elliott helped me wrap presents and put them under the tree which was very Christmasy and exciting.

Bird feeding
General
Elliott was quite naughty this morning. It started with him refusing to get dressed for a long time - this was resolved by a time out. However after that when it was time to go out he then took ages putting his coat on, so in the end, after being warned consistently, he stayed behind with Grandpa while Granny and I went to the shop (it was only a quick trip). However on returning he was sorry and then was really well behaved for the rest of the day.
Activities
In the morning Elliott played with Cars toys, watched some Peppa Pig and also we practiced writing the letter E. When he stayed behind with Grandpa he helped Grandpa feed the birds and clear the fire.
In the afternoon we went to Hengistbury Head for some scootering during which he scootered for a very long way.

Christmas Tree decorating
General
There was one incident today with Elliott at tea time when he was deliberately spinning around on his chair despite being asked not to a number of times. This was resolved by explaining he wouldn't get any cake for dessert if he didn't behave which led to him sitting still and properly.
Activities
In the morning Elliott helped decorate the Christmas Tree which was really good fun and he seemed to enjoy. He also helped me clean my car, but he seemed less excited by this.
In the afternoon we went scootering as well as lots of playing and fun.

Christmas story time
General
Elliott was good for the whole day today.
Activities
In the morning we went to Wokingham library for Christmas story time. This was two ladies reading Christmas books and leading some songs as well while the participants sat on a rug listening and singing. There was also colouring in. Elliott really enjoyed this and warmed up very quickly after being slightly shy.
Then we went to Downton and in the afternoon we played lots and also did some reading. Unfortunately one of his Christmas presents fell out of the bag in the car so I let him have this early and we played with that - it was an indoor croquet set which he seemed to enjoy. Also Elliott hadn't seen Grandpa for ages and was pleased to see him and wasn't shy at all.
