NIGHT TIME ROUTINE,SLEEP

NIGHT TIME ROUTINE.

16 SEPTEMBER 2009

well ever since Daniel was sick a few months back our night time routine was ruined. Bed time happened much later than any of us liked. Hence my decision to force Daniel to sleep at no later than 8:30 and in his own room all by his lonesome.
We did our bath time routine and then we had stories and prayer time and then the battle began.

We had screaming, banging on the door. Calling for Oupa then Dadda and even I got called.

I went in after about 10 minutes of screaming and asked if he wanted a tissue to blow his nose he said "Uh" (meaning yes) and thought that gave him a ticket out of his room but instead he was told to stay in his room I will bring it to him. I then tucked him into bed, Told him I loved him and was only doing this because I wanted what was best for him.Daniel put himself to sleep and we all had a good nights sleep for a change. I have to get him in a routine before baby no 2 arrives early next year.

Bubs

Bubs~

Well I found out I was pregnant again on Father's Day after the fourth test.I went for a blood test which confirmed it. I then made an appointment with Dr Alberts and had my first scan done at 9 week and two days.All looked good according to the scan.

I went for a down syndrome scan on the 14th of August (almost 13 weeks) and It was so special seeing clearly how bubs has developed.
Everything came back clear and our chances for a healthy baby are good. I am praying that we won't have the same as last time.Daniel was not growing inside his Mommy as he should so we had to go the C - Section route which I was not happy about.He also spent 8 days at Constantiaberg Clinic due to being prem and not being able to suck properly so they had to bottle feed and then tube feed the balance untill he was able to drink a full bottle.

We found out the sex of bubs but not sure if I should write that here as some people might prefer a surprise.

I have been feeling tired all the time and least of all the morning sickenss at night around supper time. and I am 16 weeks when is it going to end???

Parties

Parties

Well its been a while since I did an update so here it goes.

We went to Damian's 2nd birthday party which had loads of fun for the kids there was sand which is a big hit for Daniel and there there was a jumping castle which Daniel was not to keen on. But they all had fun. The Dad's got to watch the Rugby which was great for Colin and Daniel ended up having a shower with Damian and ready to sleep in the car.

Sunday was Church and then a nap in the car while we headed to Seapoint for Luke's birthday party which was a little bit cramped but Damian,Daniel and Luke had a blast not to mention sitting with the whole bowl of chips so to Daniel that was a great party to.

It was one of our freinds birthdays as well so we went there for supper. Daniel had fun playing with the other kids that were there.It was a great time for us as adults to catch up to. Unfortunately due to me feeling ill due to certain smells and tectures I could not eat the food.

Colin had a birthday too and we went with a couple of freinds and family to Mikes Kitchen which has a play area,So Daniel had fun watching all the other kids he was the smallest one there.

We had yet another party to go to Angies third birthday party well we got there very late due to Daniel needing his nap.But he had a great time when he woke up.
