Had a really bad evening/night with Oliver yesterday (or is it today? I'm too tired to work out the semantics of it all.) I got about 2.5 hours sleep and have been awake since 4.30am. I won't go into all the gory details here, but the only way we could get him off to sleep was to hold him in our arms, although when we then put him down in his cot he would wake immediately and scream the house down again. Even a 45 minute car ride didn't help.
At 5am I did the one thing I swore I would never do, and brought him into bed with me. I didn't get any more sleep, but at least he got a good solid 3 hours. I did get some serious cramp though. Guess it comes with the territory when you are a parent.
Today is my last day at work, it should have been a relaxing day followed by cocktails tonight but I haven't been this busy in ages. Case in point, it's taken me until 3.40pm to upload this photo.
