"It's ok Bailee, I will always look after you

Oscar had woken up in the night upset and I had just settled him, only to hear Bailee wake too. He was already out of his bed, (Waiting to go to our bed), and walked over to Bailee's side and started to rub her back. His words for one crazy moment made me want to have many, many more children. He said, "It's ok Bailee, I will always look after you.......(Repeat)... it's not scary, look at the fishes on your bed." I was really touched by how sincere and caring he was.

Maple is a lot better today. No temperature at all :-) She is eating better, but seems to have slimmed down since being ill. Thankfully she has plenty of reserves <3 Today we heard a few of her 'happy' noises again. It hasn't been the same without them.

We did a bit more packing today and Oscar and Bailee enjoyed some time at Appleseeds indoor play area. We went to two supermarkets to get all the shopping done for the week and for NZ. Still, knowing us it will be some sort of miracle if we don't hit the shops again before Thursday.

Stu made burgers for himself and the trio for their dinner. For the first time, they really enjoyed them. Bailee's order was for, "Meat, cheese and sauce". She said, "No tomato please and no lettuce." Oscar of course wanted it all. Maple enjoyed her slice of organic meat patty.
