Our little surprise trip took us to York. We stayed in a lovely little apartment pretty just a stone throw from the centre of town which was brilliant.
We ventured around the Xmas markets when we first got there and we even dared to have a drink to ourselves once Leo was in bed. He was quite unhappy going off but had missed a snooze in the day as everything was just way too interesting.
We didn't have a late one but Leo woke up at 10.30 and then stirred every hour after that until midnight, then I got a two hour reprieve but then I fed him around 4 and then we slept until just after 7. I was knackered.
We took Leo's first ever train ride out to the Scarborough beach on the Tuesday. It was fairly stormy, but lovely being out on the sand with the fresh breeze blowing in off the water.
The sea front was pretty much deserted, unsurprisingly and there were so many places closed for the season. We had initially intended to have fish and chips on the front, but the good shops were closed!
So instead, we had an Italian and Leo sat in a high chair! First time ever in a restaurant!
So much is changing so quickly, we think he has some tooth movement too. He's started pooping about 5 times a day or more and has little pink cheeks. He's also quite feisty when he wakes up in the night.
Tom took the next night duty so I could sleep and he did a great job of pacifying him so it didn't disturb me. Of course I didn't sleep through, I've just accepted that isn't going to happen for a long time to come. He's been a lot more settled since being back home though, which is great.
We are even managing more than half an hour daytime naps in the cot. You have to be ready on the half hour point with ewan, but then he will go over an hour easily
