wake up!
Things I have to do to wake up parents! For example, today: Woke up at 6:50 and called mummy. Took three calls before she came. She dragged me with her into the big bed and expected me to go back to sleep. Huh! Did a commando roll off the bed and went into the corridor. The door to the loungeroom closed: no Wiggles within reach. Dadda nowhere to be seen. Made some noise, mummy didn't emerge. Sure enough: went back to the bedroom and she's asleep in the big bed. Had to stand by the change-table and say 'poo' and 'nappy' in sad tones. That always gets her up. Had my nappy changed even though there was no poo in it. Could have skipped the change for hours if it wasn't for getting mum up! While we were at it, I took off my pyjamas. Refused to put on clothing. Now that mummy was nicely woken up, I got some answers about Dadda. He was in their bedroom, cunningly wrapped in a doona, so that I didn't see him at first. Method for dadda: call for a bottle. I did hat, rubbing my tummy for greater effect. Got him up and suggested 'walk' (there are Wiggles in the loungeroom, you know). Mummmy, in the meantime, burrowed into the bed that I just got Dadda out of! I said 'Mummy too' but instead of coos about my use of 'too', like yesterday, I got told that mummy is asleep now! She finally resurfaced 15 minutes later. For goodness sake! Catherine
