Hippy burpday to me!
It's official: I'm 30. Woohoo! Excuse for party :) Slightly depressing also, but I don't feel any wrinklier so *shrug*
That said, Katelyn is celebrating by being unusually fractious. She kept me up most of the night and Rob - who answered the call of work despite booking holiday for the duration of his mum's visit - was no help whatsoever. We (GrannyLyn n me) have only just managed to get her to nap for more than 5 min, after being over-tired and cranky since 8am.
Sadly, this success is notable by the fact that I finally broke and gave her a dummy :(
I was hoping not to at all (I never had one as a bub), but not even rocking her to sleep in her favourite position (chest down on top of me in the rocking chair, immediately following a feed) cut the mustard today. Maybe Katelyn is stressing the big 3-0 more than me..
The party itself will be on Saturday, but we were planning a dinner out tonight. She's been great on nights out before, but I'm happy to downgrade to Wagamama takeaway if it means a calmer baby!
