I felt a bit tired as yet again Emily woke in the night with her teeth; this time it took from about 1.45 to 2.30 to settle her. She woke at 6 as Nick left, but somehow it got to 7.15 before I had to get up, so she must have drifted off again.
TMG held a Christmas party at the jidokan in Hamamatsucho; a bit early, but a lot of people are returning home soon for the festive season, lucky things. Emily was on good form, with rosy cheeks, lots of smiling, and crawling around after the toddlers. She even ate her lunch, albeit a selection of finger foods. I had to follow her round the room spooning yogurt into her mouth, as she would not sit any longer. There was a short book reading, some songs adapted for Christmas, and even making Christmas cards. Emily just chewed the crayons and sucked the stick-on paper cutouts.
After we'd cleared the room I took her downstairs to the main play area where we go regularly. Though she was tired by now she perked up straight away, crawling straight over to cuddle up to the giant teddy. I was really pleased that while we were there she walked behind the baby walker toys several times, some without my instigation.
I was about to go to bed when Emily started crying again. She seemed to be in pain though she wasn't running a temperature, and I was considering whether to administer a little Calpol. However, as soon as we came out into the light of the hallway she stopped crying and began pointing at things, so it was clearly not as bad as all that. This time she settled back into bed fairly easily.
