Free Sleep

So Jambeans was very mature and went to nursery sans Felix, and most importantly, sans Granma without the screaming fuss we were anticipating. And Squealycops was in tremendously capable and loving hands for the day. We left him in the morning totally grumpy and with some kind of pus oozing from every orifice. Came back in the evening to a happy, energetic and smiling little bub. Phew.

Then this morning bf did the uber-chivalrous thing and cared for Felix when he woke at 5am whilst babymomma coma-slept. Then later in the morning, after we had all got up and when Granma was busy attending to Princess J, babymomma put Felix to bed, just lay down next to him "for 5 minutes" and then got another FREE SLEEP for over an hour. So whilst babymomma has been kipping, bf has been awake since 4.30 and is now knackered.

Time to pay off the TLC debt methinks...

The other joyful matters of today are that Jasmine is really getting musical. She's always singing and is getting the hang of tunes. She and daddy have been playing duets on the guitar and singing Jingle Bells together and we all had a big dance together this evening, putting the Strictly contestants to shame with our nifty footwork and twirls. Bf is totally into superspeedy broadband and Playstation 3 (his recent pressies to himself, because I'm working so much in the evenings and hogging the pooter). He has just introduced me to Little Big Planet, which I think I might quite like, though Jambeans, at the tender age of 2, is already a better player than I am. Felix is still cruising for Britain.

But despite my attempts to stay jolly I'm feeling rather seasonally affected.
