| My little guys.....still adorable! |
They spent most of the month passing it onto the rest of the family and each other again, and again and AGAIN!
Our sleep started off broken and then became non existent.
They recovered, their sleep patterns did not, but at least we were getting a few hours.
Then more colds, conjunctivitis and coughs.
From having our sleep broken again we went back to no sleep.
I mean no sleep.
Last nights sum total for me was 20 mins in between juggling them both as Simon needed to sleep, has a bad back so cannot pick them up and had to function at work.
It is really tough but I am not sure of a way round it.
We cannot move them and they have to stay with us in out room.
Therefore they wake each other up and us.
I love them dearly so thankfully getting up again and again is not an issue as it means more cuddles and love!
Some days I have to admit I am so comatosed when they sleep , I just crawl back into bed! I don't like doing this, as I waste a good part of the day and feel even more lethargic but needs must.
Most days I just get on, albeit slowly.
I have severely limited my expectations of the days and weeks.
This has helped me feel a little less pressurised.
I have prayed I don't nod off infront of my students which nearly happened one week. So now I have switched all the heaters off in the classroom!
I cannot remember what it was like to get into bed and sleep, at all.
I hope it's not too long until they settle again.
Otherwise I may look 70 at Abigail's wedding! Not what I was aiming for!
20mins! ouch xx
