Bedtime progress...with a little cheating!

Howdy folks!

Well night two of Abbie's new bed time routine seemed to go relatively smoothly... so far! Although I did cheat a little bit. Normally she has a nap about three to four o'clock and as she was full of beans I skipped it. Consequently she was falling asleep in my arms by twenty to seven, so it was changed, cuddle and off to bed with a bottle. So far only two little whimpers because she lost her bottle.

In other news my dads lovely white German Shepherd Dog, Bailey, who is one week older than Abbie and a very nervous boy decided to come to me for a "fuss" tonight. Normally Bailey only comes to me when his dad and mum are out but tonight he saw me giving his big brother (five year old Irish Setter, Oska) a cuddle. After watching me for a minute or two with a "Oi! I want a love too!" look, I turned to him and said "come and get a cuddle if you want one!".

I was fully expecting him to do his normal thing and cower away when he trotted over, happy as you like to get his ears scratched!

I adore dogs and especially the GSD. I have grown up with the best of them and think them amazing family animals for any experienced dog owner.

I'm hoping to start my Christmas cards this week, I normally make them early and put them in a safe place. Paraphrase from Lemony Snickett "Safe place meaning here black wormhole from whence no item has yet been recovered until six months after you need it!"

I do have an idea for them, I just have to hope I have enough snowflake sequins!

Well, I'm off for another night, sleep tight!
