Breakthrough bedtime
For the second night running Nin has gone directly to her own bed. Admittedly it’s directly next to ours, but as my rapidly expanding girth has been causing some space issues in our bed even without the magical expanding toddler in it (how do they fill an entire double bed?) her timing is great.
She still wakes up and panics if I’m not in my bed, but even with a 2am wake up flop on me and snuggle, she still finds her way back to her own bed by the time I wake up again in the morning.
I must take some more photos, but as this blog is looking a bit bare, thought I’d post the one of Nin trying to knit:
On the HE front it’s been decimals and converting fractions into decimals. Both boys seem to be really enjoying this and even R. has managed to muster up some enthusiasm for a previously disliked subject (sometimes it just takes something to ‘click’ into place and the rest doesn’t seem so bad after all). It’s been a funny few weeks anyway, what with Erk deciding to return to school, leaving me a bit unsure of what to suggest to do in the meantime. So planning to start fresh with R. on Monday once Erk starts back. It will be very strange not having Erk at home, but I suppose this might benefit R. a bit and atleast it’ll be one less person for him to argue with, so day-to-day life might become a little more peaceful. Might be good for all of us :0)
















(Slings'n'things)



So he’s starting on Monday? Good luck to him then, hope it’s all he wants it to be!!
How’s the new fridge? I assume it arrived?

I have my reservations, but there are some things he needs to decide for himself.
The fridge is great - I’ve food arriving tomorrow (as physio have banned me from pushing a trolley, so I order from the supermarket) and I’m really looking forward to it. The children have missed ham sandwiches and yoghurt.

Hope it works out for him, and for the rest of you too.

We hope it all goes well. And I’m envious of your expanding girth, the only thing making my girth larger is too much pudding - been trying since nov’ and still no joy!
