You know how some days you just can’t get it together to go out into the world with other people?
So we were having one of those days. Recently Ted has pretty much given up sleeping, I really hope he’s having a sleep regression because he will literally sleep for about 2 hours in the evening without being held and after that he just wants constant access to the old milk makers. Anyway, we’re still in the school holidays at the moment so simply staying in and doing nothing just isn’t an option if I want to maintain my sanity – there are only so many times in one day I can hear mummy without wanting to scream. Don’t get me wrong, I love my girl but she doesn’t handle boredom very well.
On days like these I am so grateful to have my sister nearby. My niece is only a couple of weeks older than Grace and they’re best friends and play together really well. When I feel guilty for not giving her a sibling she can play with I remember she has her cousin and we’re so lucky they’re so close.
So the girls went out to play in the garden while my sister and I made lunch and found a recipe for some sandwich biscuits online. Biscuits are not my forte, when I say I’m going to bake, 99 times out of 100 it will be cake, but these were super easy to make. The girls loved getting super messy making the dough and they loved rolling it out and cutting the shapes. Baking is such a great activity, they helped with weighing out the ingredients, took turns nicely and there was a built in treat at the end – what’s not to love?
That’s it for today. See you soon!
