Hi all,
It is sooo cold. We have the ac on during the day for the first time this year. I don't feel the cold a lot but.. brrr. Dh says it's snowing in the mountains.
Nic- I'm totally innocent on the sleep stealing. Ty was in our bed by 10pm and awake every hour or so after that. I am resigned to living in the land of the sleep deprived for the next few years at least. Dealing with it *sigh*. about the belly aches.
Teens- I've done that a few times myself. Don't feel bad. Once I dreamt I was at mothers group, saying to one of the other girls "Your baby is crying". Woke up and it was Ty.
Liz- Ewww. Mouse poo. Best of luck to you!!
Went and saw my boss today. He's agrred to put me on casual and let me work one day a week. Yay!!
Ty is overtired (left him with MIL today so he didn't get a sleep this morning) and just can't get him to sleep. Anyone else's bubs really light sleepers at the moment? I have to creep away from the cot after I put Ty down at the moment.
Mouse update: I have cleaned and disinfected both lounges out the back. Can't believe the mess this mouse can make in such a short time! It's not long ago that I did a thorough clean & vacuum but under all the cushions and things were bits of food and poo! There was also a teething rusk under one lounge that had been chomped away on. Either DS dropped it down there, or the mouse dragged it there! LOL.
Anyway, the place is spotless, well.. I haven't mopped yet.. will do that tonight when DS is in bed. So hopefully the mouse will find our little trap when it goes on its little forages tonight.
Oh - one good thing came out of it.. I finally found the missing back door keys! When I opened up the sofa bed fully, they were down the side there.. so they hadn't fallen through to the floor - they were stuck! Yay!
Lori - yeah, how cold is it!! There must be snow up those mountains.. I'm at the foot of the mountains and it's freezing!
on the cold weather.. I am feeling the cold here so I can't imagine how cold it is with actual snow
woo on mouse cleaning Liz.. at least cleaning got done if only I could be forced into doing a major one.. Dmn I wish I could hire someone to come in and do all the nitty gritty jobs.. and sort out mine and the kids clothes.. you know all those jobs..
pretty decent day here. Olivia had 2 good sleeps.. 2 hours in the mornin and almost 2 hours in the afternoon.. We were so cold at 1pm we went for a walk to the park.. An hour in the sun that finally appeared made us toasty and warm.. Its meant to get down to 6 here tonight BRR
Question for the day,... Olivia won't sleep at night till she in her bag.. but now she has started it for her day sleeps. I managed to get her to go down this afterrnoon without it but this morning she wasn't going to have a bar of sleeping till she went back in it.. Luckily it was cold enough for her to do so.. Should I *force* her to go down without it during the day or get a cotton one made up as some days even in winter it is definitly not cool enough for one??
Hmmm Nic that is a good guestion. Will she stand being wrapped lightly instead? Ty doesn't have a wrap at night anymore, he has the bag instead, but I still wrap him loosely during the day. Sleeping bags are so expensive. Could you remove more of her underclothes and still put the bag on? Might be a bit of a pain in the bum. (It makes me feel so good when you asks questions. I'm like- Yay! Nic has 4 kids and still has questions about this baby thing! there are no experts!)
Liz- lol at the keys. I lost mine once that way- took mw six months to find them again
I always have questions.. and now Olivia is so darn different from the boys I have even more
I will try the wrapping but last time I tried (newborn) she wasn't having any of it
I am mental.. Neice is here tonight (yay she was allowed to come) but omg... I had to send them to bed.. I felt like such a meanie. but I told them Olivia would not sleep if the house was so chaotic..
I was going to put Jacob on my bed and let isaac, Ethan and neice watch a movie in jakes room (tv in there ) but they wouldn't stop running and screaming... I got Jake and Isaac asleep and now Olivia and niece who is almost 8 and Ethan almost 9 are talk talk talk talk.. Better then the jumping off the bed I just got mad at them for
oh and in case I don't come back tonight I am off to mums tomorrow.. Party for Ethans birthday then Fri and Sat night at a 40th for simons aunt.. then home Sunday and eeek we are camping and its cold BBRR
