Dentist today

October 15th, 2009

image1623908617.jpgTom is at Cannon St. dental clinic today. He was very anxious last time. He has weak back molars and so needs a filling. Due to him being stressed he is going to have happy gas. I’ve looked it up and it’s something that wears off after ten minutes or so. Still, I don’t know whether he’ll be ok to go back to school.

It’s a bugger being a dad sometimes. I can tell he is anxious and it’s rubbing off on me. It’s a tough thing knowing he is going to have something done which is going to hurt and I’ve just got to sit there.

To be fair I’m going to buy him a new game or something this weekend to reward him for being a brave boy.

I’ll let you know how it goes later!

So… I’m back. Ruby is now 18 months old. She has hair walks and talks. She only says dada, Nama (mama) ‘oggie (doggie), ‘am (sam) and ‘oma (Thomas)

She also says ‘iya and whassat (what’s that) as well as Ta when she wants something.

She saw the HV last week who said she is fine. Also said to get her a potty cos she knows when she is going.

Rubys latest habit is to strip nekkid as soon as she gets in the house. Good times. But… she sits there playing with her la-la. Bad times

Shameful aren’t I?

So long without a post. The thing is, now the drama is done, there isn’t so much to say. The Rubster smiles now (properly not wind) which is a delightful thing to see.

 She has a cold at the moment which means her almost perfect sleeping and feeding pattern has gone tits up. O well.

On another crappy note, Amanda got taken into hospital last week. She has had a cough/cold for a while and rang me the other day in a big panic because she couldn’t breathe. Short story is she ended up being taken by ambulance to the ROH where she was admitted. She stayed one night and had steroids and whatnot - she remained very breathless on extertion when she came home but seems ok now.

It was all a bit hectic because I had to sort some clothes for Amanda, sort the boys and Ruby and Sam had his school show. Ay Caramba.

Anyway, its all good now baby - I will pop some snaps of Ruby on here when I manage to bluetooth them to my laptop.

How life is today.

Life is good. Ruby is beautiful and gets more pretty each and every day. I’m being objective here you understand. She is a joyful little thing especially at 4am which seems to be her preferred time for rising. At the mo, she is having a bottle of formula at 7pm and again when she rouses (at around midnight to 1am) - I am giving her these so when she wakes at 4am I have had usually the sum total of 4 hours sleep tops. Saying that, I do go off again whilst Amanda is staying awake a lot of the time from 4am.

Anyway, here is a picture of the beauty that is the Rubster.
