Its 3 in the morning and I can't sleep. Mr HG on the other hand, hasn't woken up since 11. A 4 hour stretch of sleep has been unheard of in our house for months and of course, I am typing this instead of enjoying it. I had a horrible dream and then woke up thinking my house was being burgled (it was just Kevin snoring). I don't lament about sleep like many other new mums, but I do miss it. But then, I never really slept that well anyway.

Lets see, whats going on around here...Finally got a mattress for the cot. I am seeing slight trend of sleeping longer for E and once he is in a bit more reasonable sleep pattern, I will move him to his own bed. Frankly, with him waking every hour or two, I am just too lazy to be getting him up and down to feed.

My father in law is coming later this afternoon. I think we are going to head off and out somewhere nice like Arran or Dunkeld for one of the days. There is a half off rail tickets promo at the moment, but of course its impossible to find the fares that are cheaper.

Eating is still going well. Ellis has chomped his was through sweet potato, gnocci, tortellini, pittas, broad beans, apricots, prunes, carrots, peas, risotto and oatmeal in the last two days. I know I need to get more veggies and fruit into him, but he has really gone off pears and I am worried about a cauliflower incident repeat.
