Another fear for Lucy, but she conquered it to see the "bider moomie"

Today mum and I took Lucy to the movies, to see Charlottes Web. I LOVED the book (okay, still love haha) and she loves the movie Babe, so I thought we would both really enjoy going =)

(Nappyless still!!!)

She didn't want to go in, because it was dark, and "scawey in dere." Finally got her in, and she was really happy, and laughed at lots of things, loved the spider (although there goes her wariness of spiders I tried to instill in her), and sat there at one point snorting and saying "me a piggy to!"

She was very good though, most of the kids in there were older, so I think the movie was aimed at a slightly more mature audience.... She sat still, watched quietly (except for the pig snorts) and was just a very good girl =)

I cried when Charlotte died (omg, Julia Roberts was the voice, she was perfect for it!) and Lucy consoled me by hugging me and saying "aww bider dead, dat sad mommy, you cry s'aright...."

Happy Australia Day!!

We had a pretty cool day, considering it was 41.8 degrees! We left the house at 9 in the morning, went to mums place, swam in her pool, played, watched movies, tried to make Lucy have nap time..... Gave up on nap time..... LOL

Went to Joey and Roos for about 5, let the kids play for a bit, then went to Mindarie for the evening/night =)

We went to The Boat, which was nice, but Lucy would not listen to me, all evening she was driving me friggin NUTS.

Then we went outside to watch the fireworks, and she was scared!! (This is the fearless child who scales bookcases and jungle gyms, who feeds cows a blade of grass at a time, who tries to climb onto a horse coz she loves them LOL) She is scared of fireworks...... Terrified actually. Shaking in her thongs. I should have thought it through a little more carefully, she doesn't like thunder, but it isn't like she is afraid of it, she looks up to the sky and tells it off. You can see her little mind whirring as she thinks 'when I am bigger and can control the weather.....'

Well we went back to Joeys for a sleepover, and got there at 10 at night. I was AMAZED because Lucy didn't have a nappy THAT WHOLE ENTIRE TOTAL TIME! No accidents! Only peed in the toilet at the pub!

WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Mum asked "What are you going to spend the nappy money on?"

Muah ha ha ha ha haaaa......

I am really going to exploit this fear of Lucys.... "You won't behave?? Well, I will get the FIREWORKS out then huh? huh?"

Bahahahahaha!

Happy Aussie day everyone, go eat a timtam =)
