V bigs hugs! Make sure you nap when Aston does - the big kids are big enough to look after themselves for a couple of hours - so is Richard! And no scratching that itch it is purely nap time

I was thinking just then in the shower why am I so chipper lately.... not sure ... maybe bcos I've made some decisions and put some demons to rest, stopped feeling guilty about being a working mummy, hmmm.... it may even be bcos I have gone to bed at 830 the last 2 nights and even though we've had 2 wake ups the have been relatively quick (esp when DH goes to him) we've all gone back to sleep. Forgot how sleep deprivation can drag you down... have to enjoy it while I can lol!! Plus I love baking and making some of mums fave xmas recipes has made me feel she's a bit closer.
