Nursery

The kids have spent their first full week in full-time nursery. But it's been an emotional time with mixed results. Aimee is distraught every morning when Cat leaves her there, but she is reported to be having a good time once she settles down. Yesterday, she enjoyed her group singing so much, she could hold her wee in no longer and wet herself, but gamely carried on singing. Now that's stubborn.

Dylan also cries each morning when Cat hands him over. Wringing every last drop out of Cat's heartstrings as she leaves. Yet, the carers say he is having a good time and even eats and sleeps during his stay there (which he doesn't do at home). Last night, we think he may even have reached a milestone...a whole night without waking up. A complete evening to morning period where Cat and I could sleep without our usual blurry-eyed 4am trip to his room to console, cuddle and douse him with milk or painkillers. Let's hope it really is a turning point.
