Baby Training

God, Life is tough.

Not only is this my last week in this department, but at home we've decided to potty-train Monkey, as well as cot-train Tiger.
Monkey's two and a half years old now, and she goes to playgroup, so we've decided it's about time she got out of nappies. And to be honest, she's taking to it like a duck to water. She's had a couple of accidents, but TW has taken them in her stride, and she had no accidents at playgroup yesterday - result! She's really changed over the last couple of weeks, and is now a little girl rather than a toddler or a baby.
Tiger, on the other hand, has been mostly sleeping in bed with us for the last nine months. So we've decided that she needs to go into her room - otherwise, what's the point of a three-bedroomed house? Unfortunately, she had other ideas. Although, we only started on Sunday and last night she slept from 22:00 - 00:30 and then from 01:30 - 06:30, which is pretty good for three days' work.
Because I've been working hard closing off items and handing off knowledge, though, it's been quite a tiring week...
TTFN.

Happy Blogday!!!

So, it was my Blogday on Tuesday. I think I've been doing this, on & off, for three years.

I've decided that this year I am going to reduce my alcohol intake, and started on Monday with one bottle of Corona and a 35ml serving of Famous Grouse. Certainly beats a bottle of rioja!
On Tuesday I had a Corona and 2x35ml serving of Famous Grouse.
Last night, unfortunately, I had five small glasses of red wine, slightly denting my good intentions. However, TW is starting a Rosemary Conley diet tonight, so I will be a (unwilling?) participant in that, which will reduce my alcohol intake further...
I have a litre of Bowmore which I bought in Portugal, which I was looking forward to getting into, so that's a bit of a shame... Might have to wait until March or so before starting it.
