Boys' Night In

Last night I went out to catch up with my friend Alison in Blah Bar in town center. It's the first girls night out for me since Daniel was born. Emailed Terry at work in the morning to remind him that I was going out at night, he responded cheerfully saying it's their first boys' night in! 4pm Terry walked in home with some pork buns and red bean buns bought from China Town on his lunch break, I did some Chinese stir-fries to go with them as our early dinner. Then breastfed Daniel, changed his dirty nappy and made a bottle for Terry to feed Daniel later while I was out. 6pm hand over time, Terry joked where is the instruction manual. Given him a trustful look, I said 'well you've done twice, surely you know what to do!'

Drove away at 6.45pm and met Alison just in time at Blah Bar. Alison is the friend I used to go swimming on every Wednesday night before my pregnancy. we had an hour and half's chatting, giggling and laugh. I drove back home at 8.30pm then I heard Daniel's screaming at the drive. I thought that's odd, Daniel has grown out of colic weeks ago. Rushed upstairs, just saw Terry was watching Daniel screaming in his cot, Daniel's face turned red, eyes became puffy with all the tears, even when I picked him up, he was still sobbing uncontrollably and refused to take breast. I have to brought him downstairs to lounge and turned telly on to calm him down, and Telly trick worked. Daniel is a baby night owl to some extent. It turned out Terry wanted an early night so put him sleep in his cot earlier than his usual time. He woke up just 15 minuets in it and started to screaming uncontrollably. a disastrous Boys Night In! What I gonna to do if I go back to work??
