This Week

Well we've reverted to the 3 hrs max sleep at a time overnight the last few nights - we're all zonked again! We're booked in Monday week to the local health clinic day stay service, to see if they can help at all.

It's a frustrating situation because one the one hand I know what we need to do, but on the other, I'm too tired! Hamish has started crying in a way that is more of a protest than straight distress, and once he's on a roll it's very hard to calm him down.

Apparently things do sometimes get worse before they get better so fingers crossed we'll all be getting more sleep soon.

He started at family day care yesterday - it went well and he seemed to cope fine. We went there the day before to familiarise him with it all, and he did his first finger painting! Tried to eat the paint too, naturally.

Here's a few photos I took this week:


Oscar ready for his next outing. He slept in the stroller a few nights this week - it is now a lot hairier than it was before.


Modelling PJs very kindly given to us by a friend, along with many other clothes her boy has grown out of.

There's that tongue again!

Well just remember It Will Get Better...Sometime. It won't always be like this and one day sleep will be easy for all three (eight)of you.

In the meantime the day clinic sounds like it might be some help. I hope it is anyway.
