Things you never knew you needed to see.

I haven't posted in ages, super busy moving. So to make up for it I will give you some footage on Team Ghostriders. That is- Monkeys riding dogs. See it to believe it...

I'm crying...

with laughter. I just read this funny funny funny funny story by Australian Blogger Kerri Sackville. I laughed so much that Fae, who was sleepily nursing, pulled off and looked at me in surprised, licked the tears from my cheeks and went into full-blown laugh mode, cackling and shrieking. We laughed together for a good while. I felt a bit disturbed that I was laughing with my daughter about a story that contained the words 'clitoris' 'penis' and 'vibrator' . But there you have it, she will stay up late...

Sleep log

   The time has come. I need to have a better night sleep. Fae Fae is 13 months old and having her wake multiple times at night for long leisurely feeds is getting a little old to say the least.
    I have turned back to tried and tested , Elizabeth Pantley- The No-Cry Sleep Solution. The Toddler version  was a ray of light when I was struggling with Ashley and she seemed to be the sole voice of reason in a tidal wave of 'advice' from 'experts'.



If, like me, crying-it-out is not an option, but you dont fancy waking up 8 times in an 8 hour stretch, then she is the woman for you. She is breastfeeding and co-sleeping friendly and lays out several workable strategies that you can pick and choose from with the aim of achieving that magical thing- to sleep through the night. Note that the medical definition of this is to sleep for 5 (is that too much to ask for) consecutive hours. So I wont be expecting that mythical 7 'til 7 dream. Not straight away anyway.

Time to stake through the heart of Zombie-Karli and resurrect the bright-eyed and bushy-tailed Karli. 




So we did a sleep log last night. Click through to see what it looked like...
