Summer fun

Hurrah! At last, Eve slept through the night last night, for the first time in about 6 weeks. What with teething pain, an unusual bed in Greece and hot weather creating sleepless nights I think (and hope!) that we've just come through the other side.

It was a couple of degrees cooler last night, plus the fan was on an even higher setting - this seemed to have done the trick. Or maybe it was due to Eve eating three good meals yesterday, who can say?

We have good and not-so-good days with her meals, but it's definitely coming together slowly but surely.

We are off on a motorhome extravaganza later this morning for some Fergusson family fun times. I'm really hoping that sleeping will go ok. Fingers massively crossed. We've bought a new Peanut shell baby Sling (Tkmaxx £17 - can't go wrong, eh) for our adventures. Whilst getting our holiday supplies in Asda yesterday I wore Eve in the sling in the hammock style, so she was lying across me. It was very cute and she looked really comfy. Nicer for her to sleep lying down rather that upright.

I think that the new sling is going to be a bit hit for the next couple of weeks as we wander about camp sites and festival fields.

Eve and Jake

Eve and her baby buddy Jake had a lovely time in the park together last week. It so nice to see her interact more with other babies. Already she seems to be growing up very fast.

Daddy and Eve at The Lido last week

Yesterday we took the big decision to move house. We'll be leaving our lovely flat of 11 years, going to a 3 bedroom house in Totterdown. Finally we have become real adults it seems. A baby and a full size house. We're moving out in a couple of weeks time, which seems like a bit of a whir but the time is definitely right.  We both felt a positive attraction to the new house and area of Bristol which is the opposite side of town to us at the moment. We're feeling very lucky and hopeful about our move. 

One thing that will have to change is the Lido pool. We've been members there for about 4 years so we'll be really sorry to say goodbye to it and all the wonderful people who work there. However, I reacon we'll try and have a 'date' there occasionally!
