Better day today – well most of it…

Following a good 14 hours of sleep (only woke 4 times) we have had the best day for a week πŸ™‚

Olly requested McDonalds for lunch so we had a little road trip and took a drive through so that Olly didn’t mix with others etc. He asked for Chicken Nuggets AND a Cheeseburger – he proceeded to eat it all before we got back home πŸ™‚

He has had a great day up until dinner time, when he reverted to the undesirable attitude πŸ™

Cayton and Paula came to visit for a few hours is afternoon and the boys played inside and out (back garden only of course) as well as Elliot introducing Cayton to online minecraft with Tyler. Cayton was as unimpressed as Oliver is with it…. πŸ™‚

Olly has finally gone to bed having had a little meltdown after dinner (well he wouldn’t eat dinner) and we think it is because he had almost depleted his calpol / ibuprofen supply. hopefully another good night and a great day beckons…

Better night’s sleep

Having taken himself to bed last night instead of eating his evening meal, Olly proceeded to sleep rather well until about 8:30am (only had 4 times awake) AND requested to drink this morning !!!!

Not going to get too excited but this feels GOOD to mummy and daddy πŸ™‚

Maybe today (day 5) is the day that he begins to turn around (there I said it and maybe blew it ….)

Fingers crossed…

Getting better ?

We are actually not that sure that our little mouse is getting better yet πŸ™

He has not really eaten today or drunk for that matter, and while his tonsil site looks OK, he is drooling a lot and his attitude is actually worsening – the red gene shines rough strong πŸ™‚

He had an argument with mummy at dinner time and ended up selecting to go to bed with his blanket. He had been gone no more than 10 minutes and we found him asleep in his bed….

Hopefully he will get the sleep that he so desperately needs πŸ™‚

My own bed….

Olly decided he did not want to sleep in mummy and daddy’s bed tonight but wanted to sleep in his own bed….

Not sure what drove this decision but we sue hope he manages to stay there all night….

…. We managed to 10:30pm and then he decided that he was not happy and perhaps a night in mummy and daddy’s bed might be needed after all.

Elliot has been introduced to XBOX LIVE….

And sadly he loves it – to the point that he has sat in the conservatory all day waiting for his cousin Tyler to come on line so that he can talk to him and play the Minecraft game nine with him….

It has almost caused tears because Tyler was online for a few minutes and then vanished for a couple of hours.

We were tempted to make him walk down to Tyler’s house to speak with him for real…. πŸ™‚

Damn you XBOX Live…. πŸ™
