Lately......

Well lately things have been busy and busier. Perhaps it is because Declan is on the move (all the time), or if it is the lack of sleep or just life in general. Declan is a super fast crawler and sometimes I just can't keep up. When Declan first started crawling we had daylight savings, an unhappy screaming boy during the night so that makes for one tired Mummy. Once I decided that we would feed 'Little Red' when he woke at the early hours of the morning instead of him screaming on and off for hours he decided that he would sleep a lot better and seems to be going from his 10.30pm feed until morning (ish). However 'Curly Sue' (Emily) has come down with a cough that is quite persistent at night and seems to be waking frequently. We just can't win! Lets hope this goes away soon because....(a). We have had enough sickness. And (b). I could really do with at least 6 hours of sleep in a row.
Emily still is such a character have around. She can be so much fun and then a handful (a typical 3 year old). Her favourite thing at the moment (and has been for a while) is Sophie - her doll. I seriously think it is like having another child in the house. When we go for a walk, Sophie comes too (sometimes in her own buggy or below Declan in his). When we go on an outing Sophie comes too and I have to buckle her in to the car. She has a bath quite frequently and afterwards it is like dressing 3 children because Sophie needs to be dried and dressed too. Sophie has her own 'Bunny' (like Emily's special sleep toy) and she also has her own Roary (like Declan's special toy). Sophie has to be put to bed in her cot at bedtime and gets fed at Declan's dinner time. It really is like having another child. When we had our haircut the other week, Lucie our hairdresser (that comes to our house) had to give Sophie a trim too, with the cape on and all. I will need to take a photo of Sophie and Emily soon.
Have taken a few photos this week, so here some are.

Yes Declan is pulling himself up on the table.....Ahhhh
