My head is most definitely still in a newborn fog and I can't tell one day from the next.  I'm trying to fit jobs into the precious spare minutes I get each day, but I know I need to give myself a break.  Feeding is a bit hit and miss but I'm hoping it really will all work out.  In all the chaos I'm trying to spend at least some time with Dylan and make him feel important and involved.  On Friday Dylan swapped rooms at his Daycare.  He should have probably been moved from the 2-3 year old room at the start of the new year, but they just didn't have any places available in the 3-5 year old room.  So just as we have done twice before with starting in a new room, I've taken a quick shot on the first day. I hope you have a wonderful experience in the Kangaroos Room Dylan!

A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2016
When I began writing this post yesterday, all seemed okay.  Tristan seemed to be doing well and just so sweet at 10 days old.  He was snoozing and I felt like I was getting on top of things.  Cue disaster evening!  His skin seems really red blotchy and irritated, and he just wouldn't settle again.  He wanted more and more boob and I again question my supply.  Trying times...

Week 34 Unfortunately things fell apart during the week.  I was hoping that we were all on the mend but it quickly became apparent that we weren't, and we went downhill quickly.  There's been more whinging and moaning and sleepless nights and day naps and the tissues... boxes and boxes of tissues.  It's just no fun.  When the sleepless nights turn into cranky days, you just lose your shit sometimes. You yell. You yell at anyone who's there. You say things I'm sure you wouldn't normally say if you were well.  And decisions, oh my god, why is it so friggin hard to make a decision??? Like what should we have for dinner? Or should I put that other load of washing on or will it piss down with rain?? This week I've really felt quite isolated.  On my own little sick island where nobody wants to go.  Some days you just wish you had that magic fairy that would come and get your shit done for you.  I've been so lethargic this week that makes it seem...

We had to go do some grocery shopping one day this week.  I was wearing a new-ish dress and could not for the life of me work out which shoes to wear with it. So Dylan takes the opportunity to choose some from my wardrobe and model them around the bedroom for me!  Such a funny little man!  He even got them on the right feet!   A portrait of my son, once a week, every week in 2015 Shoes were fun for a minute or two... then back to his trains of course!   Joining in with Jodi and Project 52 .   Bel

Week 11 What can I say about this week??  Not much other than there has been a serious lack of sleep.  I can mostly blame this lack of shut eye on the weeny boy, but otherwise I only have myself to blame.  One night out with my girlfriends was the culprit on one of those occasions.  But it was such a fun night, no kiddies, no husbands, just a few hours of good girl gossiping and frivolity!  The next day, being a work day, no amount of concealer would hide the under eye bags. The only thing to do was dose up on coffee and get through the day.  It was good in theory, but after multiple coffees; more than I would normally drink, I was buzzing! I was still buzzing at about 3am the next morning... Not the way to get a good night's sleep. One piece of exciting news for the week was that I finally got my new digital SLR camera! Yippee!!  The bad news is... I don't know how to use it other than "Auto" mode which kinda defeats the purpose. Oh well... It's s...
