Early Years – A Bit Of A Blurrrrr

Lali sat, crawled and walked around the same time as her siblings so as a baby, apart from her feeding issues was pretty similar to the others.  As Lali became more mobile she also became more wilful, I had to use disposable nappies on Lali, the only way to keep them on her was to do a few rounds of masking tape as she had very good fine motor skills and would have any pins, Velcro or other fasteners removed in seconds.  Lali also would not keep clothes on regardless of how cold it was, she was more than happy for you to dress her but within minutes she would have hidden somewhere and removed every stitch of clothing.  I think at that stage it was the pressure of clothes that distressed her and it was the same with restraining her in the car, no matter what type of car seat we tried she would always manage to wriggle herself out much to the distress of her siblings who were constantly trying to convince her to keep in her seat.
