The night shift went really well again. Wolfie woke again at around 11.30. Though I think that Devil boy shouting due to playing a computer game did not help. He settled of nicely the first time though. I did give him some Calpol though as I noticed that his cheeks were red earlier so I think he is teething again. The twins though settled off by about 1 and I quickly got ready for bed and took them though.
Malach woke up a couple of hours later but he settled quickly next to me. Elbereth though slept until 6am. I am hoping that they are now beginning to get a nice routine. I am also going to try and make sure that if Malach wakes during the night like last night I will get him to settle in his basket instead of next to me.
My clock was slow this morning so I got up a little later than I wanted. I managed to have my breakfast and get then twins ready for Homestart when they arrived.
I was looking at Wolfie in the minibus though as I was going to the group. It suddenly struck me how much he is looking like a little boy rather than a baby he is. His hair is growing really nicely and is getting a lot thicker and longer. His hoar has lovely curls in it and he looks so cute. His face is developing really nicely though but I had not noticed how much he no longer looked like a baby. I know he is not a baby anymore but now I can see it. Even with the tantrums he is such a funky little boy and I love all of the silly things and watching him learn (especially when he is at Devil boys grandmas when he copies what his grandma does while giggling)
The group went really well. I spent a while feeding Elbereth but thankfully for a while my friend sat with her on her lap and winded her and then another woman who works at the group took her away to show the other women that work there. I mad e the most of my time to relax and I sat and while I only managed to complete a few competition this week as I could not be bothered to I just had a nice time chatting. I forgot to weigh myself today so I am not sure how my plan to lose weight it going. I will try and remember next week.
I also managed to have a chat with my friend at the end of the group. She had noticed that I was looking pale and down. While I am not feeling down today I have had my moments lately. I think it is only to be expected that I would be feeling down and I was warned to expect it but the fact that I am pale is making me think that I am becoming anaemic again. I know that feeding the twins are taking it out me by feeding them so I have to make sure that I try and eat as healthily as possible. I am also going to try and get up to visit her next week during the week. She is giving me one of her high chairs that she no longer uses. That will be good for either Wolfie or the twins when they are ready for it.
When I got back though I have had plenty to keep me busy. I firstly needed to go out ho the shops to get more Soya milk and a few other things. When I got back I needed to wash the nappies and then clear the clothes off the floor that Wolfie had scattered.
I then needed to change and feed the twins, get dinner, clean Wolfies toys up while Devil boy put him to bed.
The rest of the night has been a continual round of feeding, changing, winding, changing (and messed outfits) as I am hoping that as I have been so busy I will get a reasonable sleep tonight during the night shift. Though even though I have been busy all evening I would not have it any other way. I never thought I would say that but I am so happy to have twins as well as a very funky toddler. I think it sounds wonderful to say that I am a mother of three children and I am really looking forward to teaching them many things in the future and watch them develop their own personalities.
