A day in the garden….in March?
Not a good night last night with Lincoln now with more than just one prominent white bump visible on his bottom gum he was awake more than he was asleep and we all suffered a disrupted night although momma stayed with him all night comforting him and making him feel better.
I was told to go sleep down stairs because I had to go to work but sleeping downstairs isn’t the best few hours sleep I ever had but it was more than momma got so as I write this she is in bed and has been since about 8pm catching and resting up for another possible looooong night
Love you dude and thanks for being the greatest mommy they could possibly have
There’s trouble at’t mill last night Lincoln woke more than usual but we (Jamie actually) got him back off to sleep with a quick splash and dash feed with added calpol to ease his discomfort. He has spent the day fussing and chewing on his hand or anything else he can get in his mouth
We may have a disrupted night again?
Reagan is such a boisterous little girl and very much like her mamma in that it has to be explored whatever it is and it will be explored now at 100 miles an hour. The peripheral damage is irrelevant but can never be ignored, Reagan has her first knee scrapes and keeps adding to them either re scuffing or scuffing a knew part of her body. She will learn like we all do…eventually but until then we have to keep picking her up and kissing it better and wiping the tears away, mine as well as hers!
Mommy says sometimes they fight but can you actually believe they could ever be anything other than ‘angelic’ ?
I was so excited for my family to go to the seaside, Jamie had talked about it for days and had packed up and prepared everything last night so she could take the kids to the seaside as early as possible. All I said this morning as I left for work was “Don’t forget to send me a photograph….!”
I was still excited as I drove to work which was in Chester today so it would take me a little longer to get there than usual, which I think is why when I got to Chester I felt a little sad that I was going to miss “a Lincoln first”. I had just had time to think of when we took Reagan to Bournemouth after Patty and Ian’s party and how very proud I was and how excited I’d been to watch Reagan feel sand between her toes and the feeling that everyone should be watching us because we were new parents and the most important people on that beach?
Its a silly thought but I had that overwhelming feeling that I was about to miss something I really didn’t want to miss…
It passed and I knew that through Jamie’s enthusiasm and need to do the best for both children they do something new everyday and this was just another of those experiences. It warms my heart that she will make our two children’s lives the most fulfilling and as happy as they can possibly be and maybe I will miss the odd “first” but I know she will be there to see it and take photo’s too…
When I felt Reagan hug me from behind I knew there would be a photo opportunity so I shouted for Jamie and luckily she captured exactly what I thought she would…cheer dude!
We are keeping our eye on a really noticeable white bump on his gum at the bottom at the front on the left and we know we’re in for a roller-coaster over the next few nights!
That’s just a prediction after watch the little guy raise himself up off the floor with his legs, then his arms just not at the same time. He just seems to have realised what is required to become mobile he just needs to put it all together and he’ll be off….within a week!
