The date night

DonnĂ© and I went out for a meal last night (our first "date night" since Eli was born), while Keren babysat for us….and this is what we came home to:
Frazzled
Keren was really awesome and pushed through more than an hour of screaming baby to first get him calm, and then eventually to sleep – it is quite something to have that endurance on the first time around with someone else's child. Keren called us as we arrived, and all we could hear was screaming baby. He had woken about 15 minutes after we left and immediately started wailing.
After some tips on how to get him to go to sleep, and lots of phone calls and text messages back and forth Keren said she was fine and that we should go and have dinner. A little while after we sat down she let us know he was smiling again and doing fine….watching a Whitney Houston tribute đŸ™‚
Then after about an hour, he got tired again, started crying and then passed out…and Keren was definitely not going to move after that.
Thanks to Keren, and her willingness to push through we got to enjoy a great meal and an evening together – thank you little sis, and well done!
Just hovering around. The little boy is getting strong.
Bugga, bugga, fly baby – always lots of fun
