her longest sentence to date

dh decided to get the bean out of my hair and let me have some rest today as i had a frightful night, with the bean crawling over to me for "me meo" (that's "milk milk" to the uninitiated) seemingly every hour or else asking "hand hand" (i.e. to hold her hand) the whole night.

however, his invitations to "go out with daddy" was just met with "no no mai" as she knew i wasn't coming along. finally, the bean made her point by saying, "ma mee, dair ee, you, out, now, peeeese".
(read: mummy, daddy, me, go out now please)

after much cajoling and bribery though, she set off with dh in the end.

footnote to the above
the bean gave a new interpretation to the phrase "asleep at the wheel" when daddy and bub were returning from their outing - she fell asleep on her trike!

dh rang me when they were at the top of the drive to the house, and i walked out to see her head resting on the handlebars with arms hanging over it and feet hardly touching the pedals as dh trundled her along. dh said that she didn't even stir when they went over humps.

probably remembering the countlessly retold story of how dh as a little laddie liked to crawl into the basket under his younger sibling's pram to sleep, dh admitted that the bean is definitely her daddy's daughter.
