Beautiful!
This just sums up Sunday mornings in our house
We have been up all night with a teething Lincoln who has been so uncomfortable he hasn’t slept much and neither have mommy or Daddy its torture
Possibly 4 on the way in, all at the bottom at the front…!
We are at the stage now where Lincoln is ready to be moved in with Reagan because he is such a good sleeper from where we were just a few weeks ago. He will bathe with Reagan at night and then Mommy will get him ready for bed and feed him before putting him face down in his cot awake and that’ll be it until 1:30 and sometimes he can go til 4am
But…
Everytime we get a couple of nights in a row something comes along to spoil it, two weeks ago we were ready to move him and they both got a colds with rasping coughs that kept everyone awake throughout the night for a week or so and it again calmed, so we agreed that this weekend we would move him. Yesterday we were all set to move today and he has had a growth spurt and to top that he is teething like CRAZY so we were up all night feeding (Jamie was actually) and we have decided again that today is not the day?
Lincoln getting some respite from teething!

A question I never want to be asked for two reasons: I immediately think I have done something wrong or have not shown Jamie just how much I actually worship her in every way especially in a loving way! The second reason is I think Jamie must believe that is true and I don’t actually fancy her?
Nothing could be further from the truth and I believe we both doubt our love sometimes because you can get so busy with life that we become a machines and intimacy can be forgotten after a hard day by both and we just relax in front of the TV before bed. We both know deep down it’s a question that doesn’t need asking and its our own insecurities that are making us think this way so we can’t help it but occasionally we ask it and wish we hadn’t afterwards.
Everyday I tell Jamie that I love her and mean it every single time I say it (otherwise I wouldn’t say it!)
I LOVE YOU JAMIE AND I FANCY THE ASS (ARSE) OFF YA!
This why I live, a simple walk for some but spending time with my family really makes it all worth while?

We were a little apprehensive about bedtime last night not least because we didn’t want to hear Reagan scream like she did the night previous. So we chose to make bathtime very calm instead of a playful splashy type one that we can have sometimes and I made it super efficient doing everything we normally do just quicker.
We were out of the bath and in Reagan’s room before Lincoln and Mommy arrived upstairs and again it was calm while I dressed her and got her ready for bed, and she was really happy and enjoying the experience. It wasn’t until Mommy came into the room that her demeaner changed and that was only when mommy said ninight and walked out of the room… it was then when Reagan’s bottom lip went and she moaned a little.
That got me thinking back to last night when mommy left to take her friend to hospital, Reagan would have heard her go and that could have been the reason why she screamed? Just because her mommy left, something mommy very rarely does and it could just be the reason she was upset?
We agreed to be more mindful of how we handle that the next time Mommy leaves and just monitor Reagan over the next few nights.
Mommy took a friend to hospital tonight, as planned, there was no emergancy but straight afer bathtime mommy left and I know she heard Reagan screaming as she left but she could never have imagined that 2 hours later reagan would still be screaming?
Mommy left at 1950ish and Reagan was already screaming and for the next 20 minutes I listened to this all the time it was grating away at my inner resolve I went to her told her told lay down covered her and gave her a dummy
She screamed as I left the room and carried on screaming until I went to her again after maybe 10 minutes this time staying with her stroking her hair and shhhhhing her to sleep which took 15minutes
As I got up to leave the room she screamed again and I left her to it for 20minutes but as my nerves were shot to pieces by this time sitting downstairs in silence just listening to her screams I took my wine and my phone upto her room and sat with her until mommy came home to find a quiet house but me upstairs sat with an awake Reagan but a quiet Reagan as she entered the room I just got up and went downstairs saying she has been screaming since you left.
Mommy comforted Reagan and followed me downstairs but Reagan was screaming before she left the room?
I explained that there was nothing wrong because if you sit with her she is fine.
Over the next 45 minutes mommy tried all the things I had tried but in the end we just let her cry it out and after 2 hours she finally went to sleep. We are not sure what was wrong but this morning she got up as normal at around 7:30 and is completely fine.
