Watching Sydney-May & A Wet Bed...........




Today for a change I am watching my precious granddaughter Sydney-May while her mum is at work because she has been sick and today has a runny nose and slight cough so Kathy-Lee didn’t want to send her to day care. I would have loved to have taken her to see nan but forgot to ring mum and tell her I had Sydney and of course mum had Temika so I wasn’t able to take Sydney, I left her here with papa who rang me when I was nearly home wanting to know where I was as he had to get ready for work. I felt he could easily go and have a shower with her here but anyway I was only a couple of minutes away so he had his shower when I got home. I could tell when I got home that papa had been playing with her while I was out.

Anyway moving on we have had some lovely warm days although I think the nights are still pretty cool and even though it was warm outside it is still cool in the house and I am still wearing light weight long pants.

Last night for the first time since Leo has been wearing only undies to bed he wet the bed and of course he was in our bed I noticed he had wet and got up and got him a pull up and clean pj’s and changed him and got a towel and placed it over the wet spot in the bed. Leo didn’t wake at all while I was changing him. However, when he woke up this morning he says to me why am I laying on a towel I tell him he had an accident during the night, later while he was sitting watching Tom & Jerry he looks down and says nanna why am I wearing these pants I had red ones on when I went to bed…………lol I remind him he had an accident and he slaps his head and goes oh yeah now I remember………he looked so cute………………..

So of course I have now had to change the sheets and wash them along with all the towels from last night since Leo can’t have a bath without flooding the floor much to my annoyance ok I don’t mind so much about the bathroom floor it is when the water seeps out into the hallway that I get annoyed as it takes longer for the carpet to dry……………

I have managed to go and peg the washing on the line without worrying about Sydney but Tim couldn’t have a shower. 

I do hope I can get her to have a nap while her mum is at work she looked tired about an hour ago but refused to have a lay down, I will try again shortly to get her to have a nap.

  2. Talk about having your hands full! I bet it's fun to have a little girl around the house once in a while, though. :)
