Mummy these whatsapps are yummy scrummy!

One month in to the milk trial and yesterday G got her first taste of the fluorescent, orange puffs of cheese that we know as wotsits (though to G they will forever be known as whatsapps!).
Half a packet down and she begged for more, to which I sadly had to resist her charm.
So we've successfully completed stage 1 and know she can tolerate a small quantity of milk powder, and now we're notching it up a level. 
The flip side is that we have to decide whether last night's antics of intermittent crying and needing to sleep in mummy & daddy's bed due to a bad tummy (she NEVER sleeps in our bed) were due to said cheese puffs!

Mummy worries......today was an anxious day for myself and G, starting pre-school. I say starting, she actually started one pre-school in April (to which she will return to at the latter end of the week). 
Knowing what a stickler she is for routine,  anxious was probably the understatement of the century! G's biggest worry was wetting herself - that's what happened on her first day at other pre school. Mine was routine.
Thankfully today went without a glitch.  With updates from pre school throughout the day,  I was able to rest easy. The new weekly visual timetable has helped her adapt to the change too. Phew!

Stay with me forever.......each night after bedtime kisses, G does the cutest thing where she grabs me round the neck and says 'I'm never letting go of you mummy, stay with me forever'. It melts my heart.  I never want to let her go. That is until she follows it up with 'Mummy what can I smell on your lips, it's yucky,  is it dinner?!' Clearly I need to reach for the polos before this beautiful moment occurs!

Just a short update this time round-first day back at school with the children has resulted in a banging headache. Our next update will be within touching distance of G's favourite caravan holiday, and also the annual Turner Syndrome conference. Excited much!!!!
