Gee, it seems that all I’m posting about these days is Isaac’s sleeping. Unfortunately that’s not about to change just yet because there’s more news. Isaac ate big (180ml) at 6pm tonight. I suspected he was gearing up for another big sleep. Sure enough, at 10pm he was totally uninterested in eating. Luckily I’ve been through this before so I didn’t fight him like I did with Emily.
Emily is still in her bed. She hasn’t got out of it yet but people keep telling us to wait for a bit longer and she’ll do it. The worst thing she’s done is to lie against the wall and bang her legs on it. We’re giving her books for the morning again because she’s waking up before 7 and we don’t like being woken up to banging. Last time she had books in bed, we had to take them away because she was waking up at night to read them. That was quite a few months ago so hopefully she’ll be better this time. She pooed in the pool at swimming again today. I thought she was a bit off during the lesson and I guess that’s why. Emily can grab things off the bottom of the pool (I have to push her down there) but she won’t grab things off of the step. I think it’s too shallow. She gets all panicy because the top of the water is just above her. She’s also annoying about swimming to the edge of the pool. When she swims to me, she’ll keep going as I move away but when she swims to the side of the pool or to the step, she stops after a few strokes and pretty much expects to be there. It’s a bit annoying because she’ll sit there about to drown when she’s literally centimeters from safety.
My phone has been sent off. I’m now using the Qtopia phone, which I’m not happy to report has a measly 2 days standby time! By comparison, the V220 gets 10 days. I’ve been trying to get my home machine setup to use it. Unfortunately I only have Windows 98 lying around (I’ve been a Mac user for a while) and all the PC stuff requires Windows 2000 or XP. I am using my Windows machine at work to get some files like the Motorola Java SDK. It comes with an emulator that needs Windows 2000 with is fair enough but I can’t even get to the .jar files at home. I mean, Java is Java is Java and it runs in Windows 98. It even runs in Mac OS X! I found a linux version of the p2k (the OS that Motorola phones use) drivers and a program that gives me filesystem access. It looks pretty comparable to the Windows programs I’ve seen. Of course, I’m not really a big Linux user so the only stuff I had lying around was from Redhat 6. Way too old. I borrowed some CDs from work and I’m now running CentOS 4.2 on my old PC.
