back-blipped

Another early start today...Amelie woke me at 5.30...that awful her not wanting to be asleep but not wanting to be awake either sort of situation. I was kind and let Jan and James (who were on the sofa bed in the living room) have a bit of a lie in and Amelie and I went to her room to play in the tent. We went through to get breakfast and wake them up at 7.30 and from then until when people arrived at 1.00 it was just all systems go! Auntie Jan and Uncle James helped out loads so that took the pressure off a bit but we were all so tired!

Once everyone arrived and everything was organised we all had a lovely time. It was us, Auntie Jan and Uncle James, Louise and Lewis and Rose and Chris' friend (and best man to be) John. Obviously our families were disappointed that they couldn't be there for various reasons and its horrible that we are so far away that it makes it so difficult but everybody that did come made it such a special day and it really was lovely. Louise, Lewis and Rose left at 5 as Rose was a bit grumpy and John stayed with the rest of us and once Amelie was down we enjoyed wine and take away and then an early night for us all!!!

Amelie woke up towards the end of the night and was impossible to settle (could have something to do with the fact that she fell asleep in the living room instead of in her cot and she must have woken up confused)so I brought her back through for a cuddle until we went to bed. She was okay then but as soon as we got into bed she was really unsettled again and crying in waves. I'm thinking its teeth again and we gave her some nurofen and she eventually crashed out on my pillow (pretty much on my head).
