Usurper is turning into a funny little bugger. Not only when she finds something amusing laugh uproariously, but when she stops she lets out a sigh and deadpans “Funny” before starting to giggle again.
Not only is she doing that but she has also invented her own little game. Every now and again she will drop to her hands and knees, crawl around going waaahhh waaahhhh and insist on being called ‘Baby Usurper’. She even gets her big sister to join in on the baby game.
She is going to be a major Ham! (and trouble).

Big sister - Little Miss - has decided that her fluffy night pants are now beneath her and she wants to just wear normal undies to bed. This had to the nightly ritual of grabbing her up as I go to bed and plonk on the toilet before carrying her back to bed in an attempt to get her through the night dry.
This is all being done at her insistence and to her credit the first night we tried it we made it all the way through completely dry. Last night was a different matter though. I was a little late on the night time carry to the toilet and as a consequence we had an accident. So the last thing I did before heading to bed was change a urine soaked 4 year old.
Luckily for me the first thing I did this morning was also change a urine soaked 4 year old. But I wouldn’t have it any other way to be honest - she is trying to do things of her own accord and regardless of success or failure it is the effort that should command respect.

But at the moment I a really enjoying my girls, both the highs and the lows, but they are fast growing up and every day is an adventure so I best enjoy them while I can.
