Ladybird, you'll probably find she will be able to point to the colour/number you ask her before she can say which one it is... They seem to go through a phase where they will call everything green or deliberately say the wrong colour...

I think tax credits go back 3 months like child benefit but don't quote me on that...

I won a holiday today.... A week in Pontins :rotfl: But I don't think we can go... Would have been nice to go, but I think I'm going to offer it to my step sister if she can fit it around my nephew's chemo...

That makes sense - she is learning body parts at the mo (today we have finally managed shoulder!). The only one she can say is toes, but she can point out all the bits if she feels like it when you ask. She gets a bit confused about which nose is Izzys and which is Mummy's sometimes though :rotfl:.

And that is a shame about the holiday, but cross fingers you can pass it on to someone who needs it

I about fell off the sofa earlier when I asked Keira if she knew how to spell her name, and she did, all in little letters like k eeehhh ihhhhhh rrrrrrr aaaaahhhh. I've done it with her loads before but normally she just starts shouting out "G, U, X, PPPPPPPPEEEEEEE"

I asked her who I should vote for her earlier, and she told me the berry demlocraps :rotfl:

I'm at my wits end with her eating, don't think she has eaten a decent meal in forever. We are going out for one tonight since it's Idris' birthday, I'm rooting for TGI fridays, I better not get vetoed :mad:

I made different sandwiches for lunch, salmon, tuna and pastrami. I told her I wanted her to have at least 1 bite from each, otherwise she wouldn't be getting chocolate ice cream (because we were having) Jesus, it took 50 minutes before she relented.......and apparently, hated them all......

Buttonmoons

and I don't give her scary big portions either, I cut the sandwiches into 4 triangles, and then I cut a triangle into half again for her, so really all she had was 1 and a half triangle. She's a nightmare!!

Caz - What is this vest thing? It sounds great though!!

cazscoob

the vest Charlie has been given is a pressure vest called a 'bear hug' it gives them the feeling of security and somehow calms the child down and can help them to concentrate, they have told me it doesnt work for every child but it is worth a go and seems to be working! TBH i dont really have too much info on it but anything is worth a go!

KOAG glad you got some much needed rest and a few hours away every few days will do you the world of good! even to get a bath in peace lol! I think you also feel calmer and ready for anything when they come back!

I think it's great that they are willing to try things like that Caz, reassures you that they are doing their best for him. X
