Hi mummy,
Weh hey.....down to 18 payments.:)
Just caught up with your diary, sorry to hear about DD2s behaviour, you know we've had the same with DS3, we seem to have a few good days then he'll just throw in a meltdown for no apparent reason. The reward chart worked for us/DD3, good luck and remember to keep calm and breathe.
Feel your pain about McD's, it's very rare that all 5 of us go together (thank goodness) and I've started to just have a [EMAIL="H@ppy"]H@ppy[/EMAIL] [EMAIL="M@3l"]M@3l[/EMAIL], lol.

Afternoon Diary,
Hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday and ate their own body weight in chocolate :rotfl:!!! I did, well it is Easter afterall.
Weve had a relatively quiet Easter, but quite spendy!
Saturday was NSD12 :j. Yesterday we went to my mums pub for an easter entertainer for the kids. Spent about £13 in there and then we had takeaway pizza.. all budgeted for and the leftover pizza doubled up as lunch for today.
Today the kids have been playing out but have since come in cold and are now watching a movie. Ive got a chicken in the oven, going to go it earlier than usual as DD2 has her swimming lesson at 6.30pm. Today has been a SSD as I need potatoes from the coop, came back and realised we had no carrots either so cabbage and peas will have to do as im not going back out!!
Im back at work tomorrow but DH is off with the kids. Wednesday and Friday im working from home which leaves them only going to MIL's on Thursday and she will have them to sleep on Wednesday night.. bonus!!
Alice, DD seems to have calmed back down again, hope it continues as she has a real drain on the whole house when shes that way out.
Think thats all from me anyway. Catch up soon xxMummytogirls x0 -
Morning Diary,
Just popping in for a quick catch up! Back to work today... how fast did that long weekend just go?!
DH is at home with the girls today and they slept in aswell!! I had set my alarm but snoozed it and then DD2 came in at 7.45am. Luckily I have a job where I dont have to be tied to my desk at 8am!!! Thats probably our only sleep in of this year... who ever thought 7.45 would be a lie in :rotfl:!!!
I parked in the free car park and walked through town and was at work for 9.10am so not bad at all. The lack of traffic always helps.
So moneywise, just checked the joint account and all the direct debits have gone out today so not looking as beautiful as last week.
Today will be a SSD as I need to pop to home [EMAIL="b@rgains"]b@rgains[/EMAIL] whilst im in town for dishwasher cleaner and a few bits. I might aswell have a nosey in the shops for something for myself too as I would like to spend some of my 'spending money'! Its burning a hole in my purse!
The weather is slightly warmer today, supposed to get up to 7 degrees which is tropical compared to what it has been. Still loads of snow at our house though!
Right think thats all. Hope everyones ok xxMummytogirls x0 -
Afternoon diary!
Just back from my walk into town.
Spent £6.15 in home bargains and also £16 of my own spending money on some sandals and underwear from Mr A's!
Obviously wishful thinking on the sandal side at the moment but I live in hope haha!!!
These are the ones http://direct.asda.com/george/womens-shoes/flower-sandal/G004149117,default,pd.html
I have a light coloured pair from N3w Look from last year so they will do for this year aswell!!!
Just a couple of hours left to do at work before home time :T xxMummytogirls x0 -
Hi mummy,
Very nice sandals.......roll on the summer. It feels lovely to have some sun on my back, although it is still quite fresh out there.

Morning Diary,
Just popping in for a quick update! Im working from home today so working this morning, then taking the kids to soft play (armed with work!) and then they are sleeping at mil's tonight so me and DH are off out for tea. Would be rude not to really!!!
Alice, youre right its so nice to have the sun out! Its a bit overcast here today and we still have a huge pile of snow on the front lawn! The back garden is half clear of it now as thats the side that receives most sun. Just need it to stay dry now as my gardens are both resembling bogs with all the wet weather weve had.
Think thats all really from me! Hope everyones ok xxMummytogirls x0 -
Afternoon Diary,
Im sure I say this everytime but how expensive is soft play if you end up having lunch. Spent £22 :eek:. Anyway never mind it was budgetted for but sooooo expensive!
Kids had fun running around for 3 hours I suppose!
Just going to get on with their tea shortly and then pack them off to MIL's and then out for tea for DH and I :T.
Hope everyones ok xxMummytogirls x0 -
I agree softplay is super expensive! We went to the park today as that strange yellow object was actually in the sky! Lovely free fun for a change, can't wait til the summer so we can do more of the same!
Have a lovely evening XxDebts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Morning Diary,
Well the sun is out here today... woohoo!!! Still coldish but were getting there.
DH and I had a lovely curry out last night, and weve got enough leftovers for tea tonight. I bet I stink of garlic today :rotfl:.
Text mil and her and DD2 had only just got us, this was 8.15 and DD1 was still in bed!
So today wont be a NSD as I will go and do the shopping this evening and top up the petrol in the car.
PLMBL, im hoping that we can do lots of free things next week when im off with the kids. Weve still got loads of snow and more forecast apparently :mad:.
Bagpuss, £30 :eek:, I hope you and DH were going on the equipment for that amount too :rotfl:!!
Right best get on! xxMummytogirls x0
