Dear Ilysha,
Your Daddy got to see you again today :'D
I arrived at the Contact Centre and went in to prepare for your arrival. I got the high chair set up ready, and got all the good toys together for you before other children arrived and stole them hehe. I went and located the playmats that had been missing for the last two weekends, I knew they'd be about somewhere - they were tucked away on top of a cupboard but I got them down and sorted them out for us to play with so you wouldn't carpet burn yourself rolling around the floor :)
Mummy and her sister Steph brought you in today, I didn't mind since I knew they wouldn't be staying, plus they were both civil with Daddy - the atmosphere is a lot better when they aren't nasty or rude to Daddy. Mummy got your breakfast out, and told Daddy she was trying you on a new style of teat, a tippee cup - you're really growing up now beautiful :')
Daddy gave you a kiss and cuddle then put you in the high chair for your breakfast, Mummy said goodbye and left us to it :D - you were hungry today, and thirsty too! I fed you your breakfast, but you kept needing a drink - so I helped you with your new tippee cup to stop you wearing more than you drank hehe. You ate up all your breakfast again today, it will help you be a big strong girl, and give you energy for our time together :D - you kept looking over at the big pile of toys I'd prepared grinning with that adorable toothy little smile :)
After your breakfast was finished, Daddy flat packed the high chair carefully whilst holding you on his knee, then we carried it through to the other room. We came back and I threw a big cushion on the floor for you to lie on, and got you some toys to play with. We had some different toys this week, there were some soft padded shapes, a cube with a bell inside that jingled every time I shook it - you kicked your legs enthusiastically and kept grabbing it and waving it around excitedly with wide eyes and a big smile :')
I had found a soft padded shape with a mirror on it, and you were fascinated with your own reflection, I dangled it above you and you couldn't take your eyes off it - well, until you grabbed it and began to eat it that is! :P - I relocated you to the playmat you liked and you rolled about like an expert, you're getting brilliant at it now - proud Daddy moment! We were playing with all the toys, your rattles and teddies, and you kept rolling away off the mat hehe.
You are getting good at standing upright now too, you kept holding my hands and pulling yourself to your feet :) - you would stand wobbling back and forward trying to get your balance - I stood you above my leg that was flat on the floor, and used it to guide you as I helped you shuffle forward towards me :) - I moved some of the toys onto the bench and helped you stand up and hold onto the edge of the bench - but I had to support you because you kept wobbling and falling onto your bum!!
When I changed your nappy today you had a surprise for me... that's right, I knew sooner or later you'd start weeing as I was changing your bum, and today was the first time! I managed to block it with a wet wipe and not get covered, but then had to spend a good few minutes wiping everywhere after haha! You got upset after that and I had to just get your nappy on you sharpish and give you a cuddle to calm you down. I lay you back down to put your trousers back on, and you started getting upset again :( - but it was okay, as soon as I picked you back up and comforted you it was fine :)
We went back in the Contact Centre and played some more, and before long Mummy and Steph reappeared to signal it was time you had to go again :( - I gave you a kiss and cuddle and passed you too Mummy whilst I tidied up all the toys. I told Mummy about the wee incident which she found amusing, and I asked about Zinc Oxide as she didn't bring any this week - Mummy explained it had exploded everywhere previously so she needed to get some more.
Mummy asked me if we just had two more sessions left at the Contact Centre, and I replied that it was however many were necessary until Court was resolved. Mummy replied it would just be two more then, which makes Daddy very optimistic that at the next Court date we can close the chapter on all this foolishness and Daddy can have proper access to you and take you to meet his family and take you out places :') :') :')
I love you Princess Ilysha, you really are the apple of my eye, and I couldn't live without you <3 - I can't wait to see you again next week my little Angel... love you all the world, and even more.
Daddy x x x
