Henny in stitches

Currently down in Ff at mormor and morfars enjoying an easter break.
Weather is more like summer than easter and the girls are enjoying playing out without having to put their thermals on. Henny's favourite activity, is sitting in the swing and getting me to push her so fast that she hops out of her seat, she can easily spend half an hour without break with this particular activity. Maud is as ever a bit more leisurely.

 

A slight mishap last friday morning ended with Henny having two stitches in her chin, Henny being the super fidget that she is, and not one who likes cleaning her teeth, managed to fall off the stool in the bathroom and ended breaking her fall on the edge of the basin with her chin.
We managed to strips it together enough to enable us drop Maud in at nursery and then take a trip to A&E.
Didin't wait more than 5 minutes to be seen, and the doctor decided that a couple of stitches, rather than glue, was the answer. So thats what he did, without any anesthetic too. Henny put her super brave face on and didn't shed a tear, she was rewarded with a diploma, necklace and a ring by the nurse.

So this is as of this evening, 3 days after said incident. Looking good, another scar to add to her growing collection.

Grabbing the limelight

With big sister Maud on an overnight visit to Tante Ingvill on the posh 'west side' of the city Henny had a chance to grab all the attention at the breakfast table without fear of being shouted down.
