Day 13 - Monday, August 17th

What made me smile today?

  • Baby seems to enjoy sitting in the new (2nd hand) chair that I bought for him on Friday
  • Baby's obvious joy when I gave him the new ball that I bought for him on Saturday
  • Baby spending a very long time (over half an hour?) playing with his shampoo bottle which I emptied in tonight's bath
  • Baby refusing to give me the bottle when it was bed time, and so he ended up going to bed with the bottle - he must be the only baby who has cuddled a shampoo bottle to sleep??

    What triggered me today?

    There were no triggers! I think that's what a day at work will do...

    What would I have done differently today?

    Should I have given in and let Baby have more cheese before dinner? Even though I said no more?
    Should I have been more firm and not let Baby take the shampoo bottle to bed? (not that I have any idea how I would have taken it from him without forcibly snatching it from him, and what would that have taught him?)

    What will I try to do tomorrow?

    Triggers, voice, limits.

    What am I grateful for?

    That I have a job and I am able to work part-time.
