Routine and My First Night Out!

I hope I don't jinx myself my writing this but T seems to be in a beautiful routine!

He's sleeping through from 7pm till 5:30am.

The other half gets up with him at 5:30am and has some man time with him, and wakes me up at 7:15am before he goes to work.

T then has 2 45 minute naps on the morning and goes down about 1pm for a 2 hour nap.

Routine is marvellous! I get 2 45 minute sessions on a morning, 1 to get dressed and have a nice relaxed breakfast, the other to blog/do some tidying up.

Then the 2 hour nap I try and do some serious housework, washing/cleaning/ironing.

Gets everything out the way for  when OH gets home at 5pm and he gets some T time.

Feeding's going well. He's now started on lunch as well as breakfast and tea;



Routine makes my brain much happier. Also getting a proper nights sleep is amazing. For the first 5 nights I felt so tired when I got up at 7:15am because my body's not used to sleeping that much!

Got my first proper night out tonight ( I say proper I've given myself an 11pm curfew!) but it's the first night out I've had with the intention to have a few drinks and a good laugh.

I'm very nervous though. It's my first 'proper' night out I've ever had on my own since the OH and I got together. I know I'm gonna miss him, and feel naughty that he's at home babysitting whilst I'm out having fun.

(OH would have come but it's a karaoke night which he hates)

But it'll hopefully feel nice to go out and just be me, hopefully I can bring me back into my regular life somehow cause I feel as though I'm always mummy me, or step mummy to be me, or wife to be me. I need to get to a point where they all become the same person!

I know the OH feels the same, he has the chance to go out for a few hours tomorrow night and I hope he does, we very rarely go to social events without each other, I've done it once and spent the whole night missing him. As much as it's nice to have the freedom and be out, I do love our boring TV nights in together, cause I'm there with him.

How soft am I?!

So we shall see how tonight goes. Hopefully it'll be just the right balance of going out and having fun and building new friendships with some new people in my life and maintaining old friendships, with just the right amount of missing the OH so when I come home I can give him big tipsy cuddles :)

So I shall try and update tomorrow, and the blog doesn't start 'so I came in at 3am and threw up all over OH/T...'


Won't be drinking like this tonight though! Definitely old me! Think my liver will be pleased though!
