The night shift went well for us. Wolfie was really good and did not wake until gone 6 in the morning, which is really funky as it shows that he is truly on the road to recovery.
The twins were not too bad. I fed and changed Elbereth and when I came to changing and feeding Malach I must confess that I could not be bothered to settle him in his basket so I brought him into bed with me as I was so tired. I know that was bad of me so I am going to make sure that it is a one off as I really do not want to make a rod for my own back. Getting Wolfie into a good nighttime routine was a real challenge but we got him into a funky routine eventually and I have learned from it. I just need to make sure that I do not accidentally fall into the same trap this time.
I got up at a reasonable time but I still struggled to get out of bed but I am hoping that after a few days of taking vitamin supplements I will begin to feel much brighter.
The morning went well and I put on Cbeebies for Wolfie. He enjoyed it but he kept going to the DVD player and asking for his Bob the builder DVD. Well I say asking it was really him pointing to the eject button on the player and saying Botty.
The afternoon went well as well. The Tesco order arrived and Wolfie and I ate quite a bit of fruit while Devil boy was out. I am really getting confident at dealing with the three of them on my own. I am really feeling confident that when Devil boy goes to the download festival for three days I will get along funkily with all three.
Devil boy’s daughter came around in the afternoon. I gave her the Harry Potter book. I think it is brilliant that she is taking an interest in reading books and I am hoping that she will enjoy reading the book as much as I do. She likes the Harry Potter films and she loves the character Dobby. I warned her that the book would be different to the film so that she is prepared.
The twins have been really funky today. In fact they have been complete angels. They have taken good feeds and they have slept for a while as well in-between feeds which has meant that I have been able to spend time with Wolfie, browse the Internet and wash the nappies.
Devil boy went to his friend s after Wolfie settled off to sleep to help him sort out broadband on his computer.
While he was out my friend called. I have been meaning to call her for a few days but I have misplaced my phone so I cannot find her phone number. We had a really good chat. It is strange how things turn out, I have been so lucky with my friend though that as we have change through life we have changed in the same sort of direction. We both became mothers at around the same time (Even though my pregnancy was not planned I could not have planned it better) and even though we do not speak as often as we like we understand and she was telling me how she is barely drinking at all now. I am also feeling the same and I am considering becoming teetotal. It is funky that our lives are following the same sort of paths without our meaning for it to be. I will have been friends with her for 20 years this year and while we have had our ups and downs she is still a funky friend. I got her E-ail address tonight so we should hopefully be able to keep in touch more often when we cannot phone. I am also looking forward to saving up for a car so I can get to visit her more often.
I just have a few jobs to do tonight before I get ready for the nighttime shift. I managed to get a lot done during the day so there is not too much to clean tonight. (I must admit that I am proud of how good the hall looks now)
