Month 02 & 20
Two of them now for over a month!

The screaming and wailing like a bean sí (Banshee), that has just slapped her nail with the biggest hammer in the world, whilst watching Ireland loosing the six nations to the French, in the dying seconds (that incidently, was no try! Robbed!) would be a start in trying to explain the farakas. Yup another of those dream. I wake and find that there is a cot at the end of the bed. We do actually have two, it's all so true. "Stop screaming and go back to sleep yah eejit, you will wake the babies".

So coping well all in all. Month one down for Oisín and he has had relevant shots (medical of course as Cambodia is not quite as gun-ho these days) with no problems. Actually, quite the opposite. The Hep B booster shot had the mini dude sleeping for hours. I was toying with the idea of going to another doctor tomorrow and getting the same again. Might be best if I just keep that thought to myself!

Aoife and her Da are continuously teasing her brother, by making faces at him and running away. Of course the wee boy is oblivious (at least I hope he is). She seems a tad disappointed sometimes that he does not give chase, so Da has to pick him up to make chase. The hot season combined with absolutely wrecked parents, is a fantastic receipe for running around the house in the evenings.

There is no doubt about it, that the house is crazy now but in a fun way. 18 months (and a day) between two kids is tiring, but we do remember from the last time, that the exhaustion does tend to ebb eventually. Every day SHOULD start getting easier soon. We shall see!

So there we have it, life has changed again. I have being vomitted on, whizzed on and quite a bit more. We have had sick babies where one is awake screaming and just before the eventual collapse (sprog and not parent), the batton is passed and sibling #2 takes over. Usually in style.

New projects and contracts are just adding to the fun, as well as continuous study for skills updating. At least we are coming up to the Khmer new year, so it will give us a break from clients for a week or two. Incidently "Susodey Chaul Chnam Thmey" to you all and hopefully 2550 will be a good year for you and your families. A week indoor avoiding water and flour being chuck at us ahead!
