Tackle and Random Thought on Tuesday
It’s the 2nd day of the week and already the laundry is starting to pile up. In our household laundry must be done everyday or it ends up a mountain high on the living room sofa.
The boys room is also in a mess with their toys strewn all over the place. I constantly tell them to clean up their room before going to bed each night. Apparently the daily reminders are not very effective and I will have to come up with something more creative to ensure that they are doing their chores properly.
I’ve been wanting to sterelise the baby’s toys and repack the toy chest but just haven’t gotten around to actually doing it. Hopefully I will find the energy to get it done this week as it has been on my To-Do-List for this month.
Once I tackled the baby’s stuff I will move on to the boys toys which is in itself an extremely massive job with their 100 over toys in their toy cabinet.
Another major WIP tackle for me is getting the 6mth old baby to sleep longer at night. I’m out of ideas on how to lengthen her sleeping hours. She STILL wakes three to four times a night.
I have done the following.
1. Increase her semi-solid intake to twice a day and given her a bigger portion.
2. Try to tire her out more before sleeping time at night by playing with her.
It doesn’t really seem to work as she still wakes up so frequently to nurse and she is already eating quite a bit for her age.
Tiger girl now weighs around 8.7kg at 6months 2 weeks old. Her 2 older brothers were also about the same weight and size back then so I’m not too bothered whether she is on the heavy side ( She’s about 95 percentile of the chart for babies this age.) as I’m sure she will be slimming down and become less chubby once she starts crawling and walking.
Any suggestions?
