Hi everyone. We got to Ottawa at 8pm on May 4th – with Nana & dee-dee there to greet us. Yippee – I’m so glad to be home!!! Now the downside: our days and nights are reversed. We slept 2am-4am and then from 10am-8pm yesterday and got to bed last night (for our nap) at 2:30am – up at 4am. Hoping to go down again at 10am… thankfully Janice is coming today at 9 – it looks like a bomb went off over here and I can really use her help keep Caily awake this afternoon…
– Caily’s pretty consistent with her current schedule:
· Hanoi Sleep at 10pm – 6am (9am-8pm Ottawa time)
· Hanoi Up from 6-10, - 5-9 pm Ottawa time
· Hanoi nap at 10-12 am - 10 -11 pm Ottawa time
· Hanoi Up 12-3:30 pm – 11pm -2:30 am ottawa time
· Hanoi Nap 3:30-5:30 pm – 2:30-4:30 am Ottawa time
· Hanoi Up 5:30-10pm – 4:30 am – 9 am. Ottawa time
I noticed she was ok with only one nap a day so today I’ll try to get up at 1 and take Caily out in the car until 5ish – to try and start reversing the cycle (Janice will be with us in case I nod off). I’ll try to get her to nap at 5-7 and then put her down again at 11. Hopefully it starts to work and she’ll sleep past than 4:30…. I’m not kidding myself that this will be a fast transition – yawn!!! Luckily the dog bed is comfortable because that’s where I’m spending my mornings while missy and her “best friend” (yes indeed it took them about 5 minutes to fall in love with each other) Fergus, have the run of the house.
If anyone has advice for dealing with jet-lag and babies please email me asap!!!
If all goes well, I expect we’ll be fit to start making rounds by next weekend.
Home photo’s soon….
Xoxo
