Marion, Emma had the same thing with Gaby, but it didn't last long. Hopefully it will be the same for Kirsten. Maybe try putting the linen or blanket from the bassinette in the cot with her for the familiar smell.

Tom didn't sleep through last night, but only woke at 3:45 so not too bad. He slept most of yesterday so I think I was lucky to get that! He's been quite grizzly today so I'm hoping for another good night.

Jack has been so good since DH has been away. We have survived our first two days quite easily. After tonight just 6 more sleeps to go. I can't believe how good Jack has been. Tonight when I asked him to clean up his toys he cleaned up everything in sight (whether it needed it or not LOL). He is such a great kid.

Tom's passport arrived on Monday. They tried to deliver Jack's today but we weren't home so I have to get it tomorrow. THey were both sent on Friday so not sure why 1 took 2 extra days. Anyway, at least we have them in time for our trip, one less thing to worry about. It has just occurred to me how much luggage we will have - think of the nappies alone!

I hope everyone is well. Kate, are you getting any sleep yet? Tegan, I hope you had a tanty free day. I have a friend with a daughter who is 2.5 and she has terrible tanties too (the dd that is!). Maybe it's worse with girls (here's hoping for my sake LOL!!!!).
