Hello December

How it is possibly December already? This year has been a very quick one. 

This morning but got to open the first window in his advent calendar. Since he doesn't eat any chocolate (he doesn't like it) I decided to get a playmobil one which makes up a Christmas scene. Today it was a tree with two squirrels. To be honest he didn't really understand why he couldn't open the rest of the windows as well. He's sort of forgotten about it now but does pick up the advent calendar to give it a shake every now and again. 

If I find the motivation I might put the Christmas tree up today. It's possibly a bit early since it's only just December but bug keeps asking about Christmas tree's so I'm sure he'll love it. 

Now that he's a bit older it's so lovely and exciting in the run up to Christmas. Every time a parcel is delivered he'll now ask if it's presents. 

I had a bit of a fright on Thursday, bug was refusing to put any weight on his right foot. Then when he tried he would be limping. Luckily he must have just been sleeping on it a funny way because the next morning he was absolutely fine. 

There have been lots of screaming tantrums lately. I know logically that it's just his age but sometimes I worry that he is having meltdowns because I had PPD and before the AD's there was a time when I wasn't happy. I know that's illogical, really, and it's not reasonable to think a toddler is going to be happy all the time. It's just one of those thoughts that waits for an opportunity to come to the front of my mind.
