A bad night for Devil boy but hopefully starting to get Wolfie back into his old routine

I got the twins through to the back room and they remained settled for some time. Enough time for me to rest for a while before I needed to attend to them.

I unfortunately heard Wolfie wake much earlier than usual. He really does not settle well some nights and I could tell by his cries that this would be one of those nights. Devil boy took him through.

The night shift went well again and while they woke several times they woke separately which made it easier to deal with and they settled quickly.

I heard Devil boy telling Wolfie off in the morning, which woke me up. Wolfie had managed to get hold of Devil boy’s glasses and bent them out of shape. Devil boy was in a really grumpy mood, as he had not had a good night’s sleep.

I decided that I would take Wolfie out for a walk and try and get him to take a day time nap so that Devil boy could get a rest.

I managed to get Wolfie and the twins out for a walk in the early afternoon. It went quite well. Wolfie was keep to potter along but unfortunately he also wanted to stop and pick up stones, sticks, rubbish etc. I am sure that our walks will get better when he gets used to walking alongside the pram. He did also want to help push the pram at points, which was really sweet.

When I got back I managed to get him to take a daytime nap, which I was really pleased about. Wolfie is so much happier for having a daytime nap. I know it is still early days but it really does feel like we are getting back into a normal routine. I have decided that I am going to take the twins and Wolfie out for a walk every day.

Devil boy needed to go out though in the afternoon as his brother was having problems with his computer. Thankfully the twins slept while I kept Wolfie entertained. The afternoon went well and Devil boy was back in time to bathe him.

He did not settle first time but thankfully he managed to settle off the second time. Hopefully he will get a better night’s sleep than last night. I am going to make sure that I get to bed earlier in case he does not settle well through the night.

I decided that I would relax tonight and watch some of the new DVDs that arrived. We watched the animated series star wars: The clone wars, which were really funky. The animation is really cute.

Malach is stirring so I am hoping to get a good feed before we start the night shift. Devil boy has him while I write this out. Though he is a rotter at times. Malach is a heavy breather and Devil boy keeps telling me that he is snuffling for truffles. LOL he has just held him to the carpet and asked me if he was snuffling for truffles nicely, LOL. Poor Malach.
