early night

Maisie did a really good job of being awake for most of the night, Mummy and Daddy were not entirely sure what was wrong but it mainly seemed to be her hernia. Roll on next week.

Mummy was the unlucky one who was on duty during the night and really didn't get very much sleep. Daddy did wake up in sympathy but managed to get more sleep than Mummy.

Maisie then decided to wake up early (05.45am)  and as Daddy got slightly more sleep he took Maisie through to the living room to let Mummy get a bit longer in bed as she was working during the morning. 

Maisie still couldn't really settle - poor Maisie.

Aunty Manu came to visit for cuddles and some dinner. Maisie was starting to get a bit grumpy and Aunty Manu did her best to settle Maisie. She brought with her a lovely wooden Pinocchio that Alison and Matthew had sent over from Italy. Thank you.

Mummy really liked Pinocchio however Daddy and Aunty Manu thought that it was a little scary;

Maisie's hernia was out again at bathtime and at bedtime. Maisie is so tired she will hopefully fall asleep and not feel the discomfort. It was an early night for Mummy and Daddy who are trying to catch up on their sleep.

  1. Hi Manu! To the manner born. We'll remember you if we need a babysitter. We also love Alison and Matt's Pinocchio as it so obviously comes alive at night and whenever you're not looking at. I'm sure they would have sent prosecco too, if Italy hadn't been suffering from a severe prosecco shortage since Alison moved there. Love Gerald, Alison, Catriona and Ruairidh XX

  2. Hoping that Pinocchio is not too scary for wee Maisie and that she gets some fun and giggles from watching him boing up and down on his spring! At least now the hernia procedure is in sight so hopefully once that is fixed Maisie will be a lot more comfortable and will sleep more easily - wishing you all a better sleep tonight. Love and hugs from Alison and Matthew in Italy xx. PS for all I was very sorry not to meet Maisie in person a week or so ago when I was back in Scotland, I am so glad I did not visit as I came down with a horrible cold just before I flew back and would not have liked to share that with you at all :-(
