The big girl had a major meltdown this morning from 6am right through to lunch time! I had blogged that her fever had subsided yesterday but at around 6ish pm, her temperature shot up to 38.6 degrees Celsius again but she was not feeling uncomfortable. She felt pretty normal and had pretty good appetite. Only…

I was busy chatting with the hubs and my helper was busy eating her food. Baby was seated on double stacked up plastic chairs – in between my helper…
Rascal #2 has a nasty habit of not finishing her food, especially her dinner, and especially so if it’s rice with dishes. I get so annoyed that this is happening so frequently that I made her promise me that she will finish her meals… in writing! Once her promise is broken, she can say sayonara…
