Too Sunny

No let up in the weather here. The room thermometer went up to 31 at one point. Alex was a complete doll until about four o'clock when she completely lost it. We tried the cool bath, putting her in the sling and doing the laundry (surprisingly successful) and a couple of extra feeds but in the end nothing calmed her. Hurrah then for the magic pram. It was finally cool enough to consider going outside so I put a vest on her and off we went - as far as the garden. She was flat out. So I sat down and read the paper. Still not a peep out of her. Time passed so I moved the pram back into the kitchen and made dinner. Still asleep. Ate dinner. Still asleep.

This is what comes of no naps during the day. I worry that we'll be up all night instead but to be honest she was having such a rotten time that I'm happy she slept through some of it and damn the consequences!

We were meant to have rain today as well. I was really looking forward to it. But no. Just hot, sunny weather all day. How my weather requirements have changed! Tomorrow is supposed to be just as hot but after that the temperature plumets into the high 20s! Hurrah?
