thats always the way isnt it. last fri nite when oh was out she was a nightmare. tonight however (fingers crossed) she is sound.

do you know its been ages since i was at cinema. oh says we going in a couple of weeks. ive got to go work tomorrow. really tired just now so not looking forward to getting up early. although i should be used to it. chloe was up at 5 thur morn. she sat and watched tv on the bed. oh brought her some fruit and juice she ate it and then at 6 announced she was going sleeps and walked into her room. so i had to put her in cot and she slept till 10. thats after waking the house up.lol

its great they can go to sleep once they have been awake for a little while and we have to stay up cause were too awake. we have only been once this year too c a film so will be a nice change from the tv. were off down my mams caravan for the day tomorrow so the kids can run around on the beach and hopefully they will sleep well then

its just so hard to please everyone in these situations isnt it. did you have a good weekend. chloe was up all night on friday again. she seems to have something against sleeping on a friday. i had to end up phoning in sick. i was so done in and i was sick in the morning prob due to exhaustion. we went to seaside yesterday afternoon. had fish suppers and ice cream. chloe had a ball it was lovely.

thats quite hard on seren isnt it. she too young to understand and if she spends so much time with him its only natural she should call him dad. i take it she quite close with you oh. chloe slept through last night so i managed a bit of catch up. she had such a great time yesterday we going to try a take her more when the weather is good.

you right that is his own fault. they are only going to react to the people who spend the time with them. we are going to try get to the zoo soon and we take my nieces to a safari park most summers so this will be the first year chloe has been. she loves animals so much cant wait to see her wee face. just wish we could rely on the weather a bit more.

i started ironing last night but gave up coz chloe wouldnt settle. not upset or anything just decided she wasnt tired. so she was sitting on our bed till 10oclock looking at photos (which is her new hobby at the mo). shouldnt complain coz she slept all night although dont know how lucky i will be tonight coz she been down since 7.45 no porbs that probably means up all night. really need to get caught up on the housework tomorrow i was so lazy last week.

sounds like you had a good day so as my mum said the housework can wait till when the weather is bad. i have tried to clear out chloe's room today but got nowhere coz she kept pulling everything back out. she slept great last night. she slept through stirred at 6.30 and must have nodded back off again and woke at 9. so i even managed a cup of tea in peace today before she got up. dont see that happening again.lol
