Mummy my bum's sore

Poor little Ruby has a very sore bum. Mummy thought she had a bad case of Nappy Rash but it just wouldn't clear up and kept spreading. When we got it checked out this week it turns out that she has thrush. Poor muffin!!!

On a brighter note, Ruby has started singing....all the time! Daddy thought that mummy had spiked Ruby's milk the way she was carrying on. Mummy and Ruby went to Kindermusik today, which Ruby really enjoyed. There was lots of singing and dancing and Ruby even got to play with some drums. Ruby was the star of the day, showing everyone how it is done after everyone else had finished. The music would stop and everyone would stop singing and the instructor would start to explain the next thing when Ruby would start her own version of the previous song. She was so loud that no-one could hear the instructor.....that's my girl.

This week Uncle Jamie had a B'day BBQ at his new house. Ruby got to wear her party dress and play with cousin Isabelle's toys. Ruby had a go in Isabelle's Jolly Jumper but didn't quite work out what was going on. You would think with 15 people telling her to bend her knees that she would understand the concept. Maybe next week.

Ruby was weighed yesterday and her weight gain has decreased, only putting on 50 grams last week. It's all in the cheeks.

Tonight is the first night Ruby will be sleeping in her own room. So far so good, she has gone off to sleep no problems. I'm sure Ruby will be fine, mummy is the one who will be up all night worrying about her.

There is no good news on the day time sleeping. We have been trying all week to get Ruby to go to sleep in her cot. She has gone off a few times but will wake screaming like she is being murdered after 30 mins. You can time her, it is exactly 30 mins!!! She will not win this, mummy is going to keep trying!
