So this is day 4 back home in Halifax. Everything seems to be going well. Miah is adjusting well and seems to like her new home, with the extra space and more toys than we could ever offer in a hotel room.
Yesterday Angelina had the opportunity to go next door and play with her friends for a few hours. We were happy for her... she had stared at all of us for the past 2 weeks, so I was glad she could get a change of scenery and change of "role" for a while.
The only issue we are still struggling with is... sleep. Not that this is a surprise, we knew it would come but its still a challenge. The first day we got home, Miah decided that 1am was breakfast time and wanted up... and its hard to convince a 2 year old otherwise. So, Mum and Dad grabbed about 4 hours sleep that night.
Day 2 Miah snoozed most of the morning and had another big nap in the afternoon. To bed in the evening and she made it to about 3:30. Bad, but still progress.
Day 3 was more normal in terms of nap times. We were hopeful at bed time, but she only made it to 2:45. Mum took an early shift while Dad snoozed to about 6am, just to be able to function.
Day 4 was another 3:30 start. This time though Mum and Dad had called it a day around 8pm the previous night, so we still managed to grab 7 hours uninterrupted sleep. That's not too bad (and notably, the most we have had probably since last Thursday).
It'll come around in time, but it's never fun to go through it.
