\"NellyInTrouble\"<\/p>\n

As you all know my little sister is on ‘bedrest’ because of her poorly leg\/hip. … Well, the first few days she was ok with that and quite enjoyed it.<\/p>\n

This morning Mum went out to run some errands and closed the babygate between my room and the kitchen where Nelly stays when Mum is out (so she doesn’t start a mad ‘biteyface’ session while Mum’s out!). All I could hear was a lot of bouncing about and then ‘RIIIIIIIIIP!’ and loads more bouncing and some more ‘RIIIIIIIIIIIIP!, ‘RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP!’<\/strong><\/p>\n

And this is what Mum found when she came home …<\/p>\n

\"ShrededBasket\"<\/p>\n

Nelly had only completely trashed her new basket<\/strong>! Naughty Girl!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"ButterMelt\"<\/p>\n

Look at her! Butter wouldn’t melt …<\/strong><\/p>\n

All that was left for her to sit on was the mat from inside the basket.<\/p>\n

Sooooo, … Mum put her thinking cap on and fetched in an old feeding towel of ours and proceeded to try and repair things.<\/p>\n

\"PatternMaking\"<\/p>\n

She made a pattern of the cushion and cut the towel out around the cushion giving plenty of seam allowance …<\/p>\n

Nelly helped with the colour matching …<\/p>\n

[MEDIA=80]<\/p>\n

Then it was time to pin and tack things together …<\/p>\n

\"Tacking\"<\/p>\n

and finally try and sew it all around the bottom of the basket …<\/p>\n

\"Sewing\"<\/p>\n

There! Good as new!<\/p>\n

\"NellyRelaxing\"<\/p>\n

… and this evening she is luxuriating back in her own basket as if nothing happened! She says it smells nicer now – a bit like dinner!<\/p>\n

Headrubs<\/p>\n

Finni \"paw\"<\/p>\n

Nelly is a typical 16 month old teenage ADT – full of energy and drive. She is getting really bored because she can’t let off steam. She is tons better for having had a complete rest. She can get up normally off the floor at any time of the day now. She will however remain on ‘bedrest’ for a good while longer with just short walks to break the boredom. I just hope the terry toweling is strong enough to last the course …<\/span> \"redface\"<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
