Have you seen the Pottersaurus?

'It was in the corner of my bedroom.'
Hmm,  imaginary friend?
.....'Mummy today with my childminder I saw a snake, and a dinosaur!' The reptile man had visited a local kids attraction. 'There was also a Pottersaurus'.
Hmm so maybe not so imaginary after all?
'What does it look like?'
'It has small ears on its head, and a tail, and is pink!'
Imaginary then!

Eye appointment
Yesterday we attended our regular 3 monthly appointment at the local opthalmology department. G's severe aversion to white coats has resulted in regular visits in an attempt to familiarise her with the surroundings.  to become familiar and happy enough to then allow them to put drops in and give her eyes a thorough close-up examination. Who are they kidding?!
Prior to the visit, we'd noticed that the white of G's eyes are not actually white. Tim Googled this.  He swiftly told me NOT to Google it. Instead we decided that it was more sensible to share this information with the actual Dr, as opposed to Dr Google.
So this, combined with the fact that the consultant has finally performed all intial eye checks to a satisfactory level (this outcome is usually achieved after 1 appointment, not 4!), has resulted in a follow up appointment in 6-8 weeks. They'll endeavour to perform this 'thorough' examination and check her eye health, with a specific focus on the sclera. Oh the anticipation of yet another delightful experience!

Gymnastics achievements
With the help from some good friends, persistant instructors, and of course Mummy & Daddy, G managed to achieve yet another badge at gymnastics. She wouldn't mind me saying that her forward roll was performed in a bit of a haphazard fashion,  but nonetheless it was a forward roll!
A professional photographer also attended the session. So despite my protest at prices, I will of course be purchasing some photographs that captured the moment beautifully. 

Local Turner Syndrome meet-up
We had a fantastic time at the Imperial War museum recently. It's one of the best lifelines having local TS families to share our experiences with. G had a fantastic day and is now obsessed with planes (except the noise of course). She's also obsessed with her 2 new besties, despite the large age gap! We can't wait to see everyone for the new year celebration.

Crazy hair
Recently I've been thinking that we need to get a hairdresser to tame G's mop, erm sorry I mean gorgeous curls. This thought was instantaneously overtaken by thoughts of G wailing at the top of her voice. Silly mummy. As if she'll even let a hairdresser through the front door!

As the shops start to pile their shelves high with Christmas goodies, and our calendar is brimming with festive gatherings, we've been been getting rather excited in our household. Apparently Santa wants water when he visits, Rudolph wants crisps and mushrooms and G wants everything. Now. Is it Christmas yet mummy?
