Jacob used to love going to stay at mums place, and would head off with no worries, could barely even wave goodbye in the excitement of it all.'
However, leading up to the wedding, we were both so busy with guests, work etc that He didn't go to grans place for about 6 weeks or more (he had been going one weekend night a fornight or more)
Now he won't go! It has taken us about 4 weeks to get him to the going and staying for tea and a bath stage, but he asks to come home after then, so she brings him back. Last night we all thought we had it cracked, as he had been asking to go there since he go tup, and was busting at the seams to go, including getting a DVD at the library and taking it up to mum and saying "watch at hiyas house" and 7.pm came and went... 7.45 a wee man comes up the drive with his hiya.. wnat go bed at mummys house...
Anyhow, we don't force him, but I have noticed alot that if we are out, after about an hour he starts going home, mummy, home (which is what he's doing at mums) so its not just her house.
Phase or no? Tips and suggestions?
TIA! Really keen for a free night, lol!

Han has got out of the habit of staying away too and now she wont - not the geatest timing! She has also asked to go home a couple of times, once was even at a birthday party where there were lots of noisy big boys. So I am hoping its a phase. We are going to try again with Han sleeping at mums a few times over the next 5 weeks, cos she will need to stay there while I have the baby.

Hope Han goes to your mums ok for you, Aimee, it will be such a big help when baby arrives
