We were supposed to attend one of my old friends, Ros' wedding today.
I was all ready to leave (dressed, make up on etc - even managed to shower without Ellis wreaking major havoc - basically had to keep her locked in the toilet with me.)
But when I went to change Ellis into her going out outfit she felt kind of warm. The thermometer registered a low grade fever. Coupled with the fact that she's having a mild cough/H1N1/crowd at the wedding, I decided we had to give it a miss.
Managed to get her to nap instead and when she woke the fever had subsided and she was much more cheerful (cranky in the morning)
I decided she could have a "treat" since she was sick. I let her go through my toiletries drawer.
It's one of her favourite things to do but I don't allow it unless I'm pretty desperate to keep her occupied. She knows this so whenever she gets the chance (like when I forget to shut the room door and I'm not looking), she'll run in and dig out the contents of the drawer. (cotton buds strewn all over the floor, stacks of pantyliners emptied from boxes, torn up cotton pads, spilled bottles of shampoo, etc - you get why I don't like it much)
Pic below is quite "calm" compared to the usual because I've already removed some items. Although she's quite a samseng she is also turning out to be a bit of a girly-girl. Besides shoes, she loves carrying a paper bag on her arm and now the toiletries. This morning as I was putting on my makeup she got her hands on a bottle of sunscreen from the drawer and smeared some on her face - just like mommy!

And here's a new "trick" she's picked up. Sigh.
Fun for Ellis, bad news for mommy.
