More layouts

I have two layouts in SC this month. Here they are:

Pause - Britta's daughter, in Germany. I think I already shared this one a while back.

Sunday Walks with dad.
Journaling: The regular trip to the deli for bread and the paper. Two little boys. One steep hill. Four little legs that tire easily. One strong rope that pulls little bikes up hills and controls runaways on the way down. One very weary Dad at the end of the journey.
I don't remember if I've put this up already or not. It's of my BIL and nephews. Sweet.

Not much else to report. I've had very little time to myself. Phil was interstate. Jamie's been very off colour. Don't know what the problem is. Just back from the doctor and nothing physically wrong. But he won't sleep. I resorted to taking him to bed with me while Phil was away. But it's been over a week now. Normally if it was a just a phase, he would be over it. He. just. won't. sleep. in. his. bed. He stands up and *screams* when we put him in there. Hysterical stuff. Thought it was the dark - but he does it during the day too. Just don't know. Anyway, I have no time to myself because he is not napping and it is taking until 10pm for us to get him to sleep at night - read here, that it takes until I finally collapse and drag him to bed with me. Sigh.

As I write this he is crying and carrying on in the next room. Must go.

Oh, Kathie, you poor, poor thing. I know how horrible it is when they won't sleep, and even more so when they won't sleep AND are screaming.

I hope that it is a phase, and it does pass quickly.

Beautiful scrapping, too!

Ich hoffe, du hast bald wieder mehr Zeit für dich. Das ist leider so, daß die Kinder einfach immer mal wieder Phasen haben, in denen sie "merkwürdig" sind. Jetzt ist es das Schlafen, wenn sie älter sind, dann sind es andere Sachen.

Kathie I love both those layouts. Very beautiful work :-)

I really feel for you with all that you are going through with Jamie. I hope he settles again soon. Sleep deprivation is no fun at all.
