How did that happen?

The pixie monster has been fed and is now back in bed without tears, and cheeky monkey girl is having a sleep in in her new bed.

That's right folks, for the first time in ages I am having TEN WHOLE MINUTES TO MYSELF! And I am dressed! And I've had a cuppa! And some breakfast! And I am ignoring the chores! And I am using too many exclamation marks so I am obviously way too excited/still in need of more sleep!

Have I just jinxed myself?!

Keep rollin' rollin' rollin'

So much to write about, too much anxiety to post properly.

Just wanted to note that today the pixie monster rolled from her tummy to her back three times- at 9 weeks and 4 days. Clever girl. Must have been something they put in her two month vaccinations*

Did I also mention that little miss is now over five and a half kilos, and is well on her way to doubling her birth weight by three months? Hooray for boobyjuice!

Better get back to the paperwork before I have to pick cheeky monkey girl up from daycare. It's been a rollercoaster couple of weeks with my big girl (did someone say flu and sinus infections, utter chaos and defiance when i am breastfeeding and a newfound habit of wriggling free of my hand to bolt onto the road?). It's a good thing that we have had lots of beautiful moments too.

My brain is mush right now.

*What a relief it was to see the rotavirus oral vaccine go down the hatch...

The horror

Note to self: never, EVER accidentally sleep in until 8 am, even if it is due to the flu. Am still cleaning up after what would have to be one of my worst mornings as a parent to date.

BBL for a nicer more upbeat post. I hope.
