Light at the end of the tunnel

Sorry it's been a while but the last month seems to be a bit of a blur. Our little man decided that rather than sleep more at night he would sleep less and so we went down the path of hourly wake ups driving me and often Mo crazy and having experienced this on a nightly basis I now know why sleep deprivation is such an effective form of torture! However just as I was about to pack my bags and do a runner things have taken a turn for the better and without wanting to tempt fate, the last two nights have been wake-up free and i feel like a million dollars!

Days are more fun too - Noah has become a bit of a foodie and shown a liking for (so far) carrot, pear, apple, sweet potato and occasionally baby rice but it's a bit bland for his developed tastes.

Today was the Sunday that I have been waiting for.... we woke up at 7; I never thought I'd say this buit quite a reasonable hour for a Sunday! We breakfasted together around the kitchen table; Mo and I had smoked salmon bagels, Noah had apple mush; he napped well and then to top it all off we went swimming this afternoon. I watched my boys from the side of the pool, he really enjoyed it, and the teacher said he was really so clever, managing to go under the water twice and come up smiling. Noah was great too :-)
