Hope

Last weekend we decided to treat Jasmine with a trip into Stratford to see a butterfly farm. The environment was possibly not the best for her skin! Really, really muggy! But that asside, she had a great time, pointing at everything, fascinated as the butterfly's landed on her and flitted away again. She loved the little quail aswell that were running around on the floor. She'll probably get more out of trips like these as she gets older, but it was great to see her engaged.



We invested in a new pair of shoes. The others were her only pair and they were getting a little smelly from constant use. Jasmine puts her shoes to good use and her 'walking' is coming along nicely, still not solo, but she's a deft hand with the stroller.


All in all things seem to be improving. Her skin does seem to be gradually getting better. She is still rough across the shoulders and in various places around her trunk. Her itchiness peeks when she is tired/frustrated. Baths are less of a headache, though the changing routine in the morning and before bed is still a traumatic experience.

As soon as she is dressed/ready for bed though, she perks up and it's as if nothing had happened! She still is up a number of times in the night. Last night was for a feed though, so it could be that the rice milk needs a little bulking out.
We have plans to see Grandma over the weekend and we've just bought her a trike! (with a parent control thingy). Looking forward to getting her on that and down to the lakes. Let's hope the weather holds!!!
