Nurse Penny was held up yesterday and rescheduled until today after nap. I hope that things go well today. I have bought Wren a baby Snuggle-bunny to comfort when he realises the poke is coming. We will be in Australia for the next scheduled shot so this will be the last of the year.
Wren woke at 5.10am this morning. I know I shouldn't do it but after daylight saving starts I always spend a week or so converting back to the pre-daylight saving time and saying things like "really he woke up at 4.10am" and "really he went to bed at 7.15pm". It sure felt like it was very early. The ground was hard with frost and the outside thermometer read 20.8 degrees F. Can that be right? Are we in a frost hollow? I had my licorice syrup which I tell Wren is "Mummy's medicine when Wren wakes up too early" and I feel OK now.
When Wren sees me taking it he says "Wren have medicine?"
I tell him he isn't sick so he does fake coughs to qualify for the syrups or potions he desires (but does not get).
This morning he was particularly nutty (from having only 9 hours sleep) running around and throwing heavy objects to 'play' with poor Frost who was thumped and bumped and generally interfered with. Wren is jealous of Frost's books and steals them and runs away with them. When Frost is reading Wren gets his own book (one of mine) from the bookshelf in the living room and sits and reads as quietly as Frost (for a few moments at a time).
I hope that Wren does well with the jet lag and we don't end up awake at 1am in Australia. I am not feeling my most resilient in terms of sleep after this daylight saving ordeal.
