Well thats my HHC over (turned into an hour or so). Did a little ironing (I only iron certain things and try to avoid doing it full stop) and folded and put away all the clothes. Also laid out DS's night clothing for after his shower and he is happy watching his Baby Signing DVD now
.
Need to make some dinner soon, pasta with creamy mushroom sauce and Garlic Bread. Hope you all have had a productive day and congrats again Pigpen.
. Lol DS has his moments, but am sooooo happy he does sleep well. Hugs to you when you need them, how old is Sarah ?

In a quandry as to whether to wake up DS2 (who is 16 months and has a cold/flu) and try to feed him something or to leave him sleeping. Bed time is at 6pm so I want him to sleep this evening, do I wake him now, feed him then put him to bed at 6pm or shall I leave him to wake up when he likes? He did eat some lunch but hasn't got much of an appetite at the moment.
DS1 requested toast and marmite for dinner, seeing as the pie won't be ready by bed time I have relented!
