The night shift went really well. I managed to get them though into the back room at a reasonable time so that Devil boys daughter could get a good sleep before Wolfie got up.
When I took them though they were both crying so I sorted them out one at a time. I fed them both, winded them and changed them before feeding them gain and getting them settled. I also read my Star Wars book while doing this. It is really well written and I am enjoying it.
At around 12.30 though Wolfie woke up again. Thankfully he settled back after a quick cuddle. I was then able to go back through and see to the twins.
I was really happy as I managed to get them settled in their baskets and I got some sleep before I had to deal with them but I managed to get a good sleep.
It is odd because I normally hear Wolfie in the morning when he wakes but for the last three mornings Devil boy has hear him in the morning. I heard Wolfie and Devil boy’s daughter running about and I managed to get up at just gone 9 in the morning, which I was really pleased about. I still got a good sleep but I also got up nice and early.
I sorted out breakfast for myself, Wolfie and Devil boys daughter and I m gave Wolfie one of his birthday presents to open. It was a Bob the builder DVD. I put it on for him to watch.
The rest of the morning went well and I managed to get Wolfie off for a nap. The twins also cooperated and slept for long enough for me to be able to clean the kitchen and bake the cake for Wolfies birthday. It went really well and I felt really proud of myself for doing it. It also tasted really nice when I got to try part of it.
When Devil boy got back in the afternoon after taking his daughter home. I gave Wolfie the rest of his presents to open and after he had managed to do that we lit the candles of his cake and he bless he managed to blow out one of the candles. He was nervous of the candles but we got there in the end. The cake was really nice.
The rest of the afternoon went really well and after I had fed the twins and got them settled I sat at the computer with Wolfie on my knee while I played games for him on the Cbeebies website. I really had fun and I enjoyed telling him a bluecow story. It was quite strange as I was listening to one of my favourite radio shows in the background (the blue room) He stayed happily on my knee until he was taken for his bath and then off to bed. He once again settled really funkily.
I then had a soak in the bath and spent the rest of the night browsing the Internet and relaxing. I am also going to write something about the first two years of motherhood and all of the challenges that we have faced and how I have changed, I had a good think about it while I was soaking in the bath and I thought it would be funky to write it down so that Wolfie can see it when he gets older. I have a few things to do before I take the twins thorough to the back room. Wolfie has just woken up though so I need to make sure I settle him off first.
