No sleep last night. Breakfast. Castle. Lunch. Beach. Dinner with almost all extended family. Collapse on sofa with wine. Bed for more no sleep.

Holidays are exhausting.

Poor J only went two and a half hours before waking up crying. No more egg ever again. Irresistible fudge doughnuts bedamned! In other news, strawberry Cornettos are egg-free WOOP!

I can beat that, my J went a grand total of 52 mins! Argh! Then another 1hr 30 and he's just fed for what seemed like forever and took both boobs!! He never does that!

I'm in bed again and hoping for a good few hours, 3 is his maximum normally so I'm hoping both boobs will help with that!

G didn't sleep till gone 12 and is up again now too. Urgh.

Came on to whine.

Realise I have nothing to whine about.

56 minutes! No feed this time tho!

29 minutes.... It's now nearer morning than night and I've not slept at all!!! Argh!!

No feed again tho... But I would like to sleep too!

1hr this time. I've still not slept!

Total of 3 hrs sleep here in 2 patches and screaming again here now too. Urgh. Must have had something bad.

Oh izzy :-( I feel blessed with my 3hrs now, hoe you are finally getting some sleep.

So sorry izzy

Makes me appreciate even more that O loves her sleep.

We are off to the airport today to see a friend from uk, she has 6 hours before going to Slovakia. Adult conversation for me and play date for O as her 1yr old daughter also comes w her.

Izzy have you got another paeds appt soon?

Sorry for your poo night izzy

donna peppa pig world was great, but soooooo hot. Was less rides and more splash pool area for us. I would advise don't go on a hot day as the queues for the rides are really exposed. However kids were all brilliant and had a happy time. Mummy was exhausted, the grand c max did it's job grandly so all was well.

Big tip and advice I should take myself

DD1-potty trained at 2.5 when I wanted to, disaster.
DD2- trained herself when she wanted, close to 3

Mummy decides not to try DS1 till close to 3

Doesn't take own advice and trys at 2.5 disaster, you may remember, in Jan time. So i stopped, which I hate, I hate going back on a decision. Anyway. Thought I would try last weekend as we had a quiet weekend. AMAZEBALLS. He got it straightaway, he was telling me he needed a wee by the end of Tuesday and got a sticker at nursery for an accident free day on Wed. Am very proud. He went all the way to Peppa Pig worl, which ended up taking an 1 1/2 hours, without a nappy and no accidents!

So. I really will not even try O until the end end of the summer before he is 3. Please all remember that when my well meaning MIL says he should be out of nappies at 2 and I come on here feeling inadequate.

In other news, I have packed my first box for our big adventure! I am going to get a load of packing stuff today and am triple dipple excited.

sophia good news on the potty training.

We had a good day yesterday. A walk in the forest then went to neighbours for drinks which turned into a BBQ. Knackered out the girls, who were brilliant with a whole group of strangers (yes, these people live opposite but I wouldn't have recognised them if I'd run into them). Back for dinner and we were all in bed by 8 (too much wine and sun). LO was up for a quick feed at 11.30 then down again til 7.

I didn't sleep brilliantly. I realised that my rtw is next week and we need to get things sorted asap.

Anyway. More on FB later on.

Oh and sophia boys apparently train later than girls for some reason.

It is sooooo hot here too.

pass where in France are you going?

pr . Lazy. Would rather be doing what they want to be doing than what they should be doing.

Women on the other hand, main,y do what they should be and rarely get to do what they want to!

Morning

Nice PR

Weather should be good down there in Oct. Except if it isn't, of course

:o

Hello AF - ahhhh bollocks! Am such a fecktard I was like arrgh what's that?! Guess that's proof how little Jonas is feeding at night. Would explain my mild psychosis grumpiness over the last couple of days.

Morning all!

izzy sorry you had such a rotten night again
stunt Yay for strawberry cornettos, boo for J not having a grat night.

S had a later nap than usual yesterday afternoon as we were out, so instead of bed at 6:15 I put her down at 8:30, so why oh why did she still get up at 6?? Well at least I know now that it makes no difference what time I put her down.
Dp has a few days off work next week, we are planning to go away for a night or 2 but we have no idea where to go? Any suggestions would be welcome, it will be S's first little mini break we don't want to go miles and miles away, I fancy somewhere by the sea.

Come and see me, fruit i want to meet another quichester!
