We had a very busy Christmas and New Years this year, even though we stayed in England and celebrated with Graham's side of the family. On Christmas Eve we travelled to Stratford-Upon-Avon and stayed at a very cute country cottage in the village of Quinton, with Graham's mum, Roger, Steve and Jenni until the 3oth. Because the cottage was so tiny, Steve and Jenni ended up sleeping in the living room, and Ava's travel cot was set up in the ensuite bathroom in the master bedroom. We thought this would help everyone get a little bit more sleep, but unfortunately the walls were quite thin and Ava had us up several times a night for one reason or another.
She seems to have sunk back into the habit of waking up screaming every couple of hours for ages and will only settle down once one of us goes in and sits with her. We've tried letting her just cry it out but she goes on for hours. Stubborn little monkey.
Last night she was perfect though - she slept from 7pm to 8am without waking us up once! When I woke up at 8:15am I had to go check on her to make sure she was okay, and I found her in her bed reading a book. If only she would do that every day!
Oh my, Becky maybe it's the mini-chair but she looks all grown up! And she looks just like the two of you :) Awww. I know you're busy so thanks for taking the time to update!
