Thanks for that Moggins, I know you are unwell but still managing to keep us right so thanks, if you ever need a break just shout and I'll help.
Doing tomorrows list in advance, shed loads to catch up on and it's the dreaded last day before half term. I actually enjoy the hols as no moring nightmares etc but the house tends to suffer! Pleased I have hard floors over hols downstairs as can't vacuum when the boys are in (sensory problems) as it leads to them having a complete meltdown. So it's a darn good clean tomorrow, then hopefully plan with DP when he can take them out next week so I can vacuum.
Fridays list, edited to suit what I need to do

Punky my thoughts are with you. I don't really know what to say to you, but a big squidgy hug your way.
I've been fairly productive today, according to DH.- made stew in SC for tea, plus extra portion for freezer
- kitchen sides all wiped
- inside of microwave cleaned
- top of cooker cleaned
- made purees for freezer for baby
- washed up x2
- WM x3, 1 lot in TD
- airers emptied and refilled
- cats fed and watered
- tidy up of coffee table in LR
- kitchen bin emptied
- bathroom bin emptied
- sorted out a pile of paperwork to recycle, shred, file
- recycling out
- bin out
- baby fed pureed swede for first time. (and he loved it and ate every bit
I plan on doing a bathroom swipe before bed, and then a quick hoover around tomorrow before my mates come round with their babies. No point doing it today as the floor will just be covered with cat fur again.
quite proud to be done early and relaxing.

I've also had a miscarriage, it is sad, but hopefully next time you'll have better luck (I did), and in the meantime enjoy the little one that you already have all you can.
For the record DD's first words were "Good girl" (we believe in giving lots of praise!) and DS learnt to say "Burp" before he could say "Daddy", although I'm thankful to report that his first word was "Mum Mum".You only get one go at life, so grab it where it hurts, shake it hard and get everything out of it you can!0
