Hi girls

Just a quick one from me, Liebling threw boiling hot coffee around Saturday night and thankfully he threw it away from him - he ended up sitting in a puddle of coffee though. I'm so grateful and thankful that it only really attacked his right shin - can you imagine if he had poured a fresh cup of coffee towards him? Anyway, 1st degree/partial thickness burns only on his leg (I'm also thankful for cloth nappies, the coffee couldn't reach up to his thigh, nor could it reach through the nappy, but the cover was stained around the bum/testicle area) and his index finger on his right hand was a bit red, but no skin lost. He's fully bandaged up though, but seems happy. As in he's not in pain. But he can't grip thanks to his right hand being bandaged up (thumb out) and walking is a bit harder, but he's still charging around the place. Umm. Oh yes, sleeping is very poor (2-3 hours at a time) as he holds onto Herr Hare with his right hand and stuffs his hand and Herr Hare's ear in his mouth... can't do that as he's not allowed to get his hand wet. Let's ignore the (organic, baby) cheesy puff stains and the toothpaste stains on the bandage.

At least DH has stopped saying we need to leave DS with strangers (to him and me... by that I mean his brother and SiL) for an hour and let him scream to get him over this attachment to us. WTF do we not want our baby to be attached to us? Or not trust us? Or feel we have abandoned him? TBH, I don't mind BiL so much because he sometimes visits and plays with DS, but I don't know SiL at all and what I do know... well, I won't criticise her parenting because it works for her but it is the opposite of what I do and I don't want her to be OK with DS crying without comfort because I'm not (she did this with her DD when she was a tiny baby)! Anyway, at least DH has said no, we need to dote on DS and not leave him upset anywhere now. Phew! All things for the best, I suppose.

Right, little man wants breakfast so gtg and feed him porridge.

Love to all and personals later - bit of a big post from me I'm afraid!
