What a shit nights sleep. Still got a banging headache and work is going slow this morning (yes, it is still morning. In Spain it remains morning until 2 o’clock - then it becomes afternoon until around 8.).
El Rubio had his first nights sleep in his own room, as he was obviously not too sure about it. This resulted in me getting in and out of bed around 15 times. I really do understand why they use sleep deprivation as a means of torture, not getting enough sleep is just evil!

El Rubio woke at normal time this morning, but I was still shattered. Maybe his teeth were also playing up, because he was not that happy. We had to ditch first attempt of getting him off to nursery. He went absolutely bonkers when we tried to get him in the car seat, screaming, crying and arching his back making it virtually impossible to seat him. But luckily since I work from home, I can afford to have mornings like this so we went back into the house, he had a little rest, some milk and a play of the roof terrace. After an hour we tried again and no problems getting him into the car, but he was crying loads at the nursery.  Called them 30 min later and he was happy playing with the other kids in the patio. Phew. Nobody quite prepares you for this when you become parents. The stress of leaving your crying children.

I am expecting another bad night, I am sure it will take a few nights for him to get used to being alone. And me too. I am so used to just opening my eyes and looking at him in his bed.

My little boy is getting bigger!

Will keep you posted on lack of sleep and crying babies.
