Close Call...

Today, the thing we have been dreading the most happened. We lost Rabbie.

It happened in Sainsburys. Just as we were on our way out of the car park Freyja suddenly said 'Rabbie!' from the back seat. My heart stopped because I knew I had given him to her just before we got to the check out and I knew that when I'd put her in her seat she hadn't had him. In fact, when I thought about it, she had been eating a packet of raisins while I was packing the shopping, with no Rabbie in sight.

We parked the car and Adrian dashed back into the shop, while I paced up and down, wondering if we'd ever be able to get her to sleep again. But someone was looking kindly on us, because Adrian found Rabbie, who had been dumped on the side of the conveyor belt in favour of the packet of raisins which Freyja had swiped from the pile of groceries.

Hurrah! Crisis avoided and we could all breathe again. And it looks like we got a free packet of raisins out of it too....

eek!

we lost Bumble #1 in the house somewhere on Saturday - I didn't find him until Sunday evening, but Jacob was luckily fairly chilled about it all.

You are so right to have a bumble #1 and #2! I really wish that I had got two Rabbie's, but by the time I realised she was attached to it they no longer had them in Mothercare.

I live in fear of losing him!!
