Daddy and Baby

Josie has been sick all weekend. high fever, throwing up etc. Neurofen has been keeping the temps down but the poor thing has been quite bored at home all weekend.

Yesterday afternoon we went to Baba's for dinner and she played with her cousins Becka and Jayden, but was quite out of sorts.

Today we have been home all day and she has been so bored. We have been through Nemo, Prince of Egypt, Road to El Dorado an The Incredibles.

This afternoon Tony was lying on her couch and Josie was playing with him. Josie was 'Daddy' and Tony was 'the Baby'!

Josie: This is your 'try' for today
Daddy: What is it?
Josie: Vegemite toast. Do you like it?
