Emily's first words on waking were ' I want to use the potty'. We could be able to leave nappies behind completely sooner than I thought, though I will tread warily for the time being as she is still not having dry nappies at night, mainly because she tends to drink so much at dinnertime.
We all went to Asukayama in the morning, where we met Cliff, Roy and Charlize. I dropped off to pick up a picnic and when I got there Emily saw me and ran over, but she fell on the way and yelled. She grazed her palm and that coloured the rest of the day as she cried about it frequently. She would not go on a slide she has used solo many times and there seemed so little she could do without using her hand so we adjourned for food. Afterwards we moved down to the waterplay area. The girls had lots of fun for an hour or so. Nick had to leave after a while as he wanted to buy an IPod and was also getting some scales for me. When it was time for Charlize to leave I decided we would pack up too.
After parting from them Emily and I tried to stop off at Starbucks by Oji station but it was full so we rode back to Tamachi and went to the branch there, where we found that Nick had dropped in to study. After our snack I left him to it and took Emily on home to play. She produced another big poo, this time on the potty. Maybe the lactulose is working already. Then she wee'd on my lap while we were talking to Sarah, Tim & Tom. Nick got back and we sat down for dinner together, but she would not eat the fig and blue cheese gnocchi. Admittedly it was far too rich, and had too much Gorgonzola. I managed to get some scrambled egg down her, but she was really flagging so I got her straight to bed with the briefest of showers.
Before bed I weighed myself: 67.7kg, or 10 stone 9 pounds. A little bit of competition with Sarah may help. I shall declare my intention here to try to get to 10 stone by Christmas, which should be achievable.
