Waking up (and getting up) has never been easy

You join us here today for an exciting event. It is 7.00 in the morning, the sun is arisen, and there is no sound coming from the bedroom; Bluet is still asleep. However, we are awake, alert, caffeinated and ready to get her fed and ready for the day. There is no need for her to lie in bed all day, afterall - the early bird catches the worm, and all that. So, with trepidation we enter the bedroom. Please join me, as I identify the sleeping baby, wake her, admire her adorableness for a minute, then release her from the baby straight jacket:




There will now be a brief intermission whilst her nappy is changed. I am sure no-one wants to watch that....
......
......
(it's gross)
......
......

And we're back. We'll take a brief pause to look at the happy, clean baby.



Then, before she gets too hungry, and angry because she is hungry, it's off for breakfast. What a life, waking up and getting breakfast straight away. Amazing.

NB this is an example and may not actually be an accurate portrayal of an everyday morning. Sometimes she wakes us by crying for food (this is what happened today, the video is from yesterday; and this was actually the second time she woke up yesterday, but what can you do? The first time it was still too dark and pre-dawn like, and the cameraman was too still asleep to capture such top quality footage). What occurred during the intermission is not fit for human consumption. No animals were harmed in the making of these videos.

  1. I was wanting to post a comment having watched today's Bluet Blog. It is so lovely and I am extremely impressed that someone so happily asleep can be woken up and not complain. Her stretching is perfect!
