Isn't she just adorable?? Polite at least!
Sorry it's been so long since I last wrote, I've had serious brain fog. G however has kept me on my toes! Her G-isms have certainly helped me to crack a smile or two. The funniest being her saying 'hello kitty, meow' to the tiger that was sat several inches away from her at the wildlife park....
We've had one appointment since I last blogged, and that was a routine eye check (covering all bases with regards to Turner Syndrome). I was all set with G's present/bribe for being a good girl/screaming down the department and had my fingers crossed for a swift visit. It was far from swift. Over an hour we waited to be seen, in a clinic that had only started ten mins prior to our appointment time. How were they so late? Why was it acceptable to keep a clearly distraught child waiting, only to decide at the eleventh hour that we needed to see a different eye specialist first. The original consultant chose not to see her afterwards due to her 'not being cooperative'. What did he expect of a 2 year old who's petrified of hospitals and had been made to wait in a terrifying environment for a ridiculous amount of time.
The long and short of it? Back in 3 months.

In other news, we've had a mini break as mummy desperately needed a change of scenery.
It had the potential to be a disaster- a few nights in an unfamiliar place, cramped in a caravan, with oversized furry animals as entertainment. How wrong we were. G adored everything about the holiday....the caravan site, what turned out to be her favourite furry entertainer-Anxious the Elephant, the bright lights of the arcades, the abundance of playparks, sandpits, a tree house and wildlife. PHEW! I sure as heck needed that change of scenery so daddy would have been taking G home without me.
Granted birds are still her least favourite, but we also managed to take her to a zoo and stay for longer than 10 minutes. Anyone who knows G, knows she doesn't do animals (except Winston of course) so that was an incredible break through!

Also we have an ENT appointment coming up in June, which is good for two reasons:
1 ) She's had ear troubles despite being on a daily dose of antibiotics for the past 5 months.
2 ) She burst her ear drum a few weeks ago.

I cannot think of what else we've been upto over the past 5 or 6 weeks, but I think I've covered the main events.
