No DH, that doesn't help!

Toddler DD has a snotty cold and has coughed herself awake.

She is very congested so I asked DH to bring me the snot sucker to see if I could clear her nose a little.

DH brought it to me in the darkened room where I'm trying to get DD back to sleep. He stayed to help me use it as DD does tend to wriggle and protest.

I'm quite sure that he was intending to be helpful, but I'm just as unsure as to what he was thinking when he held down my hands rather than DD's! I know it is dark, but you would have thought that you could tell by the size who you were restraining!

Haha! That’s brilliant. Fingers crossed for a restful nights sleep for you all.

That's brilliant! Mine would have turned on the light and woke both kids up!

It was when I said "DH what are you doing? Don't hold my hands!" And he said "Sorry, I thought they were DD's" HmmConfusedGrin
