I finished my job application last night, at least to a point where Liz can give it a read through, it's nice to have a friend willing to help with things like that. She works at Ely Council and can give me some idea of if the application would look attractive to them. She did a good job last time, I got short listed and even though I didn't get the job, I was a close second and the feedback was I'd interviewed well and should keep applying for work there.
Reuben's just got his 3rd tooth, just as I was putting the finishing touches to the aforementioned paperwork last night, Reuben was being sick on Toby and refusing to drink any milk so I was asked to assist and provide that 'Mums opinion' on how to proceed further - you know, does he have a temperature, try and isolate what is making him upset. My diagnosis was teething and a blocked nose = snotty tummy hence the mini sicks. By then Tob had left me to sort Reuben out (how did that happen?) The teetha and bonjela worked until about 1am when he started up again. I was just in process of getting a duvet from the spare room to sit under on the rocking chair in his room when his protests got less and I thought it likely he'd settle back down if I left him, which he did. He hadn't had any Milk since 7pm so I was expecting him to wake at some point hungry but he didn't wake until gone 8am. By then the white bit of gum top right had turned into a tooth showing through. He had a yogurt for breakfast but still only a couple of ounces of milk so I would guess this teething stuff is suppressing his appetite, poor mite.
During his morning sleep, Leon was bored and really ought to have gone for a sleep, but wouldn't, so I did a search on You Tube for tractors and then car transporters and we watched videos of car transporters being loaded and unloaded much to Leon's delight. Then I had a cunning plan to get Leon to sleep. We lie on the sofa cuddling, I watch Bones and he falls asleep as it's not very interesting for him. This works to plan and within half an hour he's snoring away.
After lunch to music and the library with just Leon as it's Reuben's turn today to go to see his Nana for the afternoon.
