hey nic, I'm so impressed at u camping with olivia (not to mention other kids too!).
and mango mmm. Ella still steadfastly refuses anything we offer her, tho she desperately wants anything off our plates. I'd go the whole BLS thing but am nervous cos she may have a food intolerance.
it is quiet in here today. we were out for the day at my SIL's place - 1 bed apartment with her & the ILs. I'm going to scream next time I'm told Ella's not tired, and have to put her to bed in such a small place where the adults have no concept of turning their LOUD voices down / moving away from the bedroom just til I get her to sleep. AARGH. Have calmed down considerably since leaving their place. Lovely people, but the babies were a long time ago, & FIL still telling me what my baby needs. MIL is starting to realise that she doesnt just go to sleep (here I'll take her - she can fall asleep in my arms, amidst the TV blaring and 3 noisy adults having loud debates, yeah right!) "look, she does fight it" - yes, i've told you that! Grr had to get the rant out sorry. Can now (almost) see the funny side.
Still, had a nice day & a nice weekend overall (nice is such a boring word isn't it, but there you go). and stayed up late to watch Persuasion (sigh) last night. Of course, Ella woke at 2 am and partied steadily til 7 this morning. Thankfully DH let me have a sleep in. Yes, he is a treasure.
Hope you all had some sleep over the weekend.
