Sleeping issues and Aussie Christmas celebration

Sofia woke up crying at 3ish I think and I was too tired to mock around so when she started crying again after a big cuddle and trying to put her back in bed… I ended up putting her in bed with us. Sofia clung onto me (on the front) like a koala. I tried a couple of times getting her to lie down next to us, but she climbed back up so I let her lie there for a long time. I couldn’t sleep that way however and neither did she. After a long time she was finally ok with laying next to us but she was finding it hard to fall asleep and kept kicking me – even in the face. Fun times ha ha. Finally I had it and put her back in her cot. She cried for a little bit, but no more than a minute and then she tried going to sleep. After a few more short cries she was asleep.

Sofia woke up again at about 6am. We had brekky at the hotel (room derive) and played a bit with Sofia. Mike and Sofia went back to bed at about 11.30am. Sofia woke up again at around 2pm and then we had to get ready and go straight away to Robin and Jane. There was quite a few people there, but half of them we’d been with yesterday. Sofia was once again loving the attention. It was beautiful food and great company. Feeling very happy we were invited. We left around 6pm and Sofia was in bed by 7pm. Mike and I stayed up for a few more hours enjoying a cheese platter and a glass of red.
