G has spoken (actually, she started doing her impression of an eel trapped in a handbag every time I tried to wrestle her into her baby sleeping bag) and decided that she and R are too old for grobags and sleepsuits. They are now the proud owners of several sets of pyjamas and next on my ‘to do’ list is to purchase two duvet sets.
After bath time and the evening bottle (I know, I know – it should be a cup, their teeth will be ruined, yadda yadda yadda) , G starts shouting ‘DAMAS DAMAS PDAMAS’ and runs upstairs, grabs R’s pyjamas and throws them down the stairs to her sister. G proceeds to run around their bedroom with her pyjama top slung over her head while R throws herself on the floor so that I can put them on for her. Once dressed, they flap around (the pjs are 2-3 years and the girls are a tad small for them) looking extra-specially herberty and extremely cute.
At the moment, they just have a sheet because their room is incredibly warm but I’ll be off to Ikea once we’ve moved house. By the way, does anyone want two 2.5 tog 18-36 month grobags? I suspect we won’t be using them now...
