Neeny – Good on you for finishing the blanket!!! You’ll have to send me a picture!! Your Matt better have taken over the cooking! Hope your ear feels better soon!!!

Bath – Your Verity sounds like such a treasure!!!!

IK – Yay for Oscar being so great for the GP!!!!! Fingers crossed things sort themselves out now!!!

Nic – I was going to do Ryan’s while he was asleep but he woke up as soon as I started fiddling with his feet. So I turned it into a game. Tickling him etc. Maybe do it when Nixon’s awake but relaxed. Just after a feed or during playtime?

Tanya – I wish I had thought about printing them onto a canvas!!! Hmmm……

Jess – Still thinking about you and your little Pat!! I really am hoping everything sorts itself out soon. And then runs smoother for you all!!!


As for our household, we’re working on Ryan putting himself to sleep more this week. He does it anyway but I want to get it consistent. Normally I let him fall asleep in the bouncer and then put him to bed but now (since Saturday night) he’s having ½ his bottle, his bath, and then the other ½ of his bottle and into bed. So he’s still pretty awake but drowsy from the bath & bottle. I wrap him up then put him in bed. I just talk to him to make sure he’s settled then walk out. So far all 3 nights I haven’t had to go back in because he’s crashed himself out  and…. He sleeps from about 8 till 4:30 / 5am! I’m so happy  Seems to be working  even if he’s cranky in the bouncer (not due to nappy or hunger) I’ve been working on the just talking to him technique and he’s settling himself down then to.
