Lie-ins? Aren't they those roary hairy things? :rotfl:

Seriously it's been so long since I had one I can't remember OH at one point was getting up and helping with the kids to help me get more sleep but now he's working weekend mornings. I've been out of bed and dressed by 7.30 all holiday so far.

Well you can tell mine turned 14 today... she is still in bed despite the radio, the screaming girls, the furniture delivery, the moving stuff outside her bedroom door.. gotta love a snoozy teen!

Mummy lie-ins.. yeahright.. Squeak was up at 7am.. had boob and went back to sleep until 9:30... hogging my bed.. but I had to be up to let the decorator in at 8 anyway!

Mine don't tend to do the 'he did this, she did that' because I say rely 'oh' and ignore their squabbling.. I intervene if I see blood.. it is a vital life skill learning to deal with disagreements and differences of opinion. If they argue over a toy.. it becomes mine and noone gets it. And if they don't stop being vile they get housework to do

The house is in turmoil at the moment.. the girls bedroom is being decorated and the new beds have just been delivered but we can't put them up until next Tuesday once the carpet is down.. the guff from their room is spread everywhere about the house.. so they can't play up there. Thankfully we have a large garden and the boys are away until Tomorrow evening..
