I had to have my weekly blood test today. Neil and Mary Ann went with me. We had such a lovely day in town. We went to different shops and had late lunch there. We wanted to end up with a visit to a café. We finally found one where we could enter with the pram. But in there I couldn’t sit down anywhere since the seats were either very low or high. We found a good café in the end were we had a nice warm cocoa to end a great day.
I guess my new approach was good with Mary Ann. I tried to keep her more awake in the morning, feed her and changed her nappy before we left. That gave us a quiet child the entire time in town. She didn’t wake up at all. I have learnt something from Friday’s experience in the shopping centre.

I did the same in the evening; trying to keep her more awake so she sleeps well in the night. Neil always feels she’s difficult to settle down in the evening. He doesn’t come to bed before round 3 o’clock because of that. I would like him to go to bed in the same time as me, so I will continue to entertain her a bit more in the daytime.
