NO BOTTLES - NIGHT TWO

Dear Weeb,

We bought you a bunch of new clothes for autumn/winter. You're growing like a weed!

Night two of no bottles has gone fairly well. You were really tired, since you hadn't napped today. You still have a bit of a cough. It's worse when you're lying down (aren't most coughs?). You're in bed with me. I kinda like these early nights. Now if only I could stop worrying about you coughing until you hurl (in my bed), I'd be asleep, too! I'd better enjoy these cuddles while I can.

THE BOTTLE FAIRY

Dear Weeb,

Our first night with no bottle actually went pretty well! You had a hard time settling so I eventually brought you into bed with me. Your latest cough is getting a bit worse and was keeping you up. A little cough medicine (nothing fancy) and you settled.

I put you back in your own bed around 10:30PM and you slept there all night. I had to go in to give you some water a few times (coughing), but the water did the trick!

You got up @ 7AM with a big smile on your face and we went downsrairs to see if the Bottle Fairy had taken the bottles you left for her in a big blue sparkling bag. She came! She took the bottles and left presents! New big girl underware (Strawberry Shortcke), a Dora shirt with Boots jeans and two DVDs (Dora & Diego / Courious George). I'm so proud of my big girl!
