The First Time…….

Author: The Cot
Yesterday marked a first for not only Eilidh, but in fact for us as a parent. Rebecca never slept in her cot long enough to be able to do this.
I was sorting out there clothes, Eilidh kept pulling stuff from the drawers so i put her in her cot - just for a moment to finish off. I turned my back for a moment (she was safe and happy after all) and heard the *bang* . There she was my little dare devil lying on the ground crying her eyes out. I have no idea how she done it but she somehow made climbed out the cot, the mattress is now on its lowest position and hopefully will not happen again for a while. She was/is fine , has a little bump and bruise on her forehead but seems ok . I feel rotten over it.
The No-Nap
Today was also a day with another first for us as a parent, yet again with our youngest. It was no nap day today apparently, she was up between 4am and 5am then went back to sleep till 8am. Nothing could get her to sleep today and by bedtime she was completely shattered, i really hope this was just a once off. Im just getting used to Rebecca’s new schedule (shorter nap time of around 45-60 Min’s but getting up around 6am rather than 5am) and cannot have my almost 10 month old not napping at all.
The Outside Walk
We did have a sweeter first today, we left early to go and pick Courtney up from school (in the hope Eilidh would sleep in her pram) and while waiting for Courtney let Eilidh out the pram to walk about - she only got to do it for a short while as she is still getting use to having shoes on and cannot seem to walk right with them on.
Each day is really something new these days

Hope Eilidh is better. Poor girl. Hope the no nap thing doesnt last too long. Ryleigh is still taking 2 which is nice.

Like I told you before, don’t feel so guilty about her fall…it happens to all of us, and who would think a 9 month old could climb out of her crib?! I hope Eils is back to sleeping well again tomorrow. Her little walk sounds cute!

Poor little Eilidh. Hope she is napping better now.
