The night shift went well and even though I once again did not managed to try and settle them in their baskets during the night feeds they slept for a good few hours in them which meant that I got a good sleep on my own.
I managed to wake up early again this morning. I struggled to get out of bed though but I made use of being in bed and unable to properly wake and I fed the twins before I eventually got up.
This meant that I could take a leisurely breakfast and feed Wolfie at the same time and browse the Internet and relax a little before I got the twins up and ready.
I got them changed, dressed and fed. Devil boy then got Wolfie ready to go out while I got the twins and myself ready. I then set off for Rhyme and time with all three of them. The journey across was very challenging. It was going well until Wolfie fell over and started crying. I cuddle him lots and he did not look hurt but when they crying started it would not stop. I tried time after time to cuddle him and console him but as soon as I had settled him he would start crying as soon as we set off. I even carried him but toward the end he was crying all of the time. I thin he was tired, hungry and not used to walking far. Though I am proud of myself. I felt myself getting frustrated and really wound up at times but I did not snap or shout at him at all.
When we got to the group I gave him his snack and a drink and he settled down soon after that. There was only one other at the group this week. It varies each week how many turns up. The group went well and Wolfie joined me to sing some of the nursery rhymes.
At the end of the group Wolfie was really playing up when I went to put his coat on. He was just having fun and wanting to be chased but I felt myself getting really wound up again. I thankfully managed to stay calm though and I did not say anything to him on the way to Devil boys grandmas house, which I would have done before.
The walk to Devil boy’s grandmas went quite well. It was a challenge but at least he did not cry. There was one point when a woman helped me out by keeping Wolfie entertained and picking him up if he fell. Wolfie has a habit of suddenly dashing in front and then tripping up on the pram.
When I got to this grandmas Devil boys mum was there and they were about to go out. They were picking up Devil boy to take him to drop off a letter so that we can get or benefits sorted out. Thankfully she took Wolfie along as well so I just had the twins to take home. I have decided thought that I am going to take Wolfie out a lot more with me when I go out, as he needs to get used to walking distances.
The rest of the day went well. Wolfie was so tired when he got back but he picked up a little after his dinner. We put him in his bath slightly earlier though and he settled off to sleep really nicely.
I then had a lovely soak in the bath followed by browsing the Internet and replying to my friend E-Mail that she sent this morning. I had planned to take the night off the Internet but I had not planned it well. I did manage to get some reading though. I am enjoying the Star Wars book so much that I am reading it at any opportunity that I get.
I then folded up the nappies that I washed the other day and put out the clothes that I had washed today before getting ready for the night shift. I am going to read for another half an hour though before I go to bed.
