(Some) Sleep At Last!

Last night we gave in to the lure of the swing and decided to see if Toby slept any better in that. Amazingly he snoozed for almost five hours straight - he can do it, all those stories he told me about being half starved every two hours were fibs! Have to say that when he woke up from this marathon sleep, he thought it was time to get up and play so we actually got less sleep than normal. This afternoon I put the toy bar up on his seat to see if it kept him entertained. At first he was very wide-eyed but he soon started batting the ball and book about and thoroughly enjoying himself.

Beth is doing fine though her skin is still a bit sore from the lotion. It's gradually clearing up but since she has pretty sensitive skin anyway, it's taking longer than it should. I thought I'd include this pic of Beth as she looks so grown-up.

Wow! What a big girl! Playgroup misses you two (and I'm sure we would miss Toby had we gotten to know him :)).

Oh, and I really like the line about the stories he's telling you about being half-starved being fibs. I remember those days...and will be back to them soon! :)

Hi Eve and Steve, congratulations on little Toby - it was fun to read your stories. It brings back memories of when our two were little.
We'll be in the Lake District in July. Our 2 grandkids and our daughter are coming with us. We arrive by ferry from Dublin. It will be a fun vacation.
