Sad mama.

Hey folks. I just though I’d say hi and that I haven’t forgotten you.

It’s been a very stressful weekend for me. My 9 month old baby has chicken pox, I naively thought she’d more or less breeze through it like my 3 year old did 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately her torso and scalp is covered in so many spots and she is so clingy I can barely put her down before there’s tears. Last night her back and head was so itchy she barely got any sleep (and as a consequence neither did I).

However I’m glad to say I think we’re over the worst of it now. There weren’t as many tears this afternoon and she went to bed ok.

Fingers crossed for the rest of the night (and my sanity!)

ps. on a funny note, my husband took Poppy to McDonalds as a treat this afternoon (and to get her out of the house)  – she doesn’t know it’s called McDonalds; she calls it “the chicken nugget shop”
