Ok, so I went to the cinema (The Inbetweeners movie was brill!)... but OH put a plea on facebook asking for help with baby and dog. When he didn't get any volunteers, he spent the entire 3 hours at his aunts house until I came home. This is the guy who has the cheek to say "well I work all day blah blah blah"... and he can't even handle 3 hours of what I do for 10 hours a day, 5 days a week. Sigh.
And now he's got the hump with me because I moved a bag of chocolate away from me to stop me being tempted to eat it... I literally just kicked the bag across the sofa out of reach of my greedy hands and he decided that he wanted to sit in the exact spot where the bag stopped. So he got grumpy, threw the bag across the room, scared the dog and woke up Toby. HOORAY.
I thought weekends were meant to be easier. But at the moment I feel like I'm looking after a baby, a dog, and a stroppy teenager.

Gertrude that's good that pickle self settled. George self settles just about every night. Sometimes he will winge a bit but I would never leave him to cry. He winges for a bit then goes to sleep. Last night was the first night in ages that I had to cuddle him to sleep but I think that was because he was unsettled from his injections.
Cottles poor u, tell your OH to grow up. Men!! Hope you enjoyed the cinema.

I hear you about the DH situation.
My DH and me were arguing the other day and then he said I'm lazy and sit on the couch all day.
Ehhh, really, If I sit on the couch all day and it's that easy then why can't he even handle our DD for 10 minutes while I shower? LOL
As soon as she starts crying he panics and feels lost.
He always whines after rocking her for 5 mins "Oh my arms hurt, she's so heavy" "Oh my back hurts" ...ehhh ok, I do it all day long, litteraly without complaining.. yes but I am the one that is lazy.

Gertrude that's great!! Here's hoping for more self soothing nights in your future!!
Cottleston, sorry OH is being such a grump, being a full time stay at home mom is definitely the most under appreciated job there is.
Lizzie and I are sitting outside watching DH wash my very muddy car. She seems entertained and is happy to sit in her swing as long as she has something to watch.
I'm enjoying a few headache free hours, now if only it would last! Had bloods taken yesterday to check the routine items like iron and thyroid. Been reading a few message boards of breastfeeding moms with the same symptoms (headache, dizzy, foggy head) and for many it was related to the thyroid. Others never found what it was but it went away when they stopped breastfeeding. So definitely sounds like hormones are to blame.
Hope everyone has a lovely Sunday.

I love it too!! What a great pic!
Cottles, sorry about the man troubles!
Stacey, enjoy your headache free hours! I hope its a fixable problem.
We went to the beach but it was too windy and cold to get Isis out of her carrier. We took a family photo on the beach we got married on 5 years ago. I'll post some pictures when I get a chance. I haven't pulled any of them off the camera yet.
This trip makes me want to move back here so badly but we just can't get the jobs that we can in Iowa. Makes me sad!
Have a great Sunday everyone!

Can't believe my teeny tiny little munchkin will be 5 months in 10 days!!!
She's getting so big all of a sudden , I keep looking at the pics where she was a day old.
Wow.. she was so tiny!! Can't believe she's growing up this quick.

Same here!
I can't wait till we are able to play more together and for her to be more mobile cause it frustrates her not being able to do stuff!

Such awesome pictures Dana!
Isis is really trying to crawl! I think she's also realizing that she can get places by rolling.
We took her to visit my grandpa today. He's not doing well. He's had a series of mini-strokes recently. He doesn't look good either. Makes me sad. They're not sure how long he'll be alive, maybe a few months.
We gave Isis a stick of avocado today! she shoved it right in her mouth! I've got tons of pictures. The faces she made were priceless!
We're leaving for Washington tomorrow to go stay on San Juan Island for the week.
