Busy weekend

We're at the Wychwood Festival this weekend. I am partly working - we have a Time Banks stand (free - in return for distributing loads of publicity about the Festival: Time Banking in action!) so I was there yesterday (with the girls), helping to set up our stand. Today we're going as a family mostly for a fun day out, while some other folks staff the stand. Tomorrow I'm on duty all day!

It's going to be tiring, especially on top of being got up at 5-6am each morning by Shannon who no longer breastfeeds in bed! So I have to get up and go downstairs on the sofa with her in the early morning. However, that doesn't mean she's sleeping through until that time, oh no! DH is doing sterling, wonderful, patient work with her during the night while I'm in the other room (don't trust myself to be able to stick it out and say no to her yet). She's not wailing (much), just awake and restless. And yes, it still wakes me up even when I'm not in the same room. And it's been at this stage in the past that we've given up and regressed. WHEN will she just learn to stay asleep at night???!!!

well done to hubby. You can do it!

I happen to think Justin from higgledy house would make fine husband material. Though sportacus (magnus scheving) is of course better erm, hmm, aesthetically.

Stick it out with her, how ever tough it seems. Cracking will just mean going through it again

Oh, Shooglenifty were great! Didn't catch ACSS, though.

Afro Celt Sound system ? a name like that just has to be investigated :-)
