The date and place to be announced soon.

Losing a feed

D has successfully dropped her 10:30 feed. We tried it on Friday night. Saturday night, we went to a dinner party, not returning until 11:30. We arrived home and the babysitter said D had no complaints. With a little luck, she'll now sleep straight through from 8pm to 7am.
