Monday, December 17th, 2007Sleep! The pair of you! Before 10 pm at night! Cease and desist with the multiple night wakings. Please can we get past both of you insisting on mummy and only mummy being there as you go to sleep. Especially if it’s the usual 7:30 pm false alarm and both of you are back up [...]
All i want for Christmas is….
Thursday, December 13th, 2007…my two front teeth, according to the pixie monster. Yep, not even six months old and she has her first two teeth*, and it looks like one of the top two is on the way too. All I want is to not get bitten between now and next Tuesday, when we will reach the major [...]
Make it stop…
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007…time that is, or at the very least the hectic pace. Life has been v v busy of late. We’re currently all sick bar mr hissychick and after several months of a catnapping bub, an almost three year olds deciding to abandon a decent night’s sleep just after i’d made my peace with the fact [...]
I may not have that much time to blog anymore…
Thursday, October 25th, 2007..but i have all the time in the world for: * cheeky monkey girl’s spontaneous cuddles and exhortations of “i love you sooo much” * the pixie monster’s goofy chuckles when i blurt raspberries on her neck * CMG’s exuberant rain dances complete with dora umbrella *the pixie’s contented sighs and gentle pats and strokes [...]
Where is the love?
Monday, October 15th, 2007Tell me: how do other parents find the time to, ahem, share the love? There is no time or space in this household for romance, what with the almost 7kg booby monster catnapping and wanting her mummy dummy and the nap refusing not sleeping until 10 pm cheeky monkey girl demanding cuddles because “I love [...]
Lumpty
Sunday, October 7th, 2007Cheeky Monkey Girl (CMG) has a fantastic imagination that extends to her vocabulary. ‘Lumpty’ is her word of choice for things that are not quite right, such as a scratchy CD or a rumpled up bed. I guess you could say that things have been a bit lumpty until recently. Now that we’ve sorted through [...]
Just another day in paradise
Wednesday, September 12th, 2007(Thanks to my sister for the title. She’s the one who put it into my head. It’s our code on days where we play phone tag, our way of letting each other know just how delightful it is to be a SAHM at times). You know why I don’t post that often? It’s because I [...]
How did that happen?
Thursday, August 30th, 2007The pixie monster has been fed and is now back in bed without tears, and cheeky monkey girl is having a sleep in in her new bed. That’s right folks, for the first time in ages I am having TEN WHOLE MINUTES TO MYSELF! And I am dressed! And I’ve had a cuppa! And some [...]
Keep rollin’ rollin’ rollin’
Friday, August 24th, 2007So much to write about, too much anxiety to post properly. Just wanted to note that today the pixie monster rolled from her tummy to her back three times- at 9 weeks and 4 days. Clever girl. Must have been something they put in her two month vaccinations* Did I also mention that little miss [...]
The horror
Friday, August 10th, 2007Note to self: never, EVER accidentally sleep in until 8 am, even if it is due to the flu. Am still cleaning up after what would have to be one of my worst mornings as a parent to date. BBL for a nicer more upbeat post. I hope.
