    Rudely awakened at 6 by the spotty one. Seems her nappy leaked so wet through her pjs, grobag and onto her sheets... So that was the first job of the day. Both tots milked and now they are dressed as a duck and a bunny. One has a toy phone and the other the remote control and they are having a chat lol.

    Just us at home today, will wash little lady's bed stuff, and then we are painting some polystyrene eggs I got from the poundshop.

    Morning All

    Not a lot of sleep - both kids had a sleepover - the boys were asleep for about 11 but the girls were still awake at 1, DS then got in bed with me at 3.40 as he'd woken up and couldn't get back to sleep. DS's friend is now up but no-one else is.

    The house looks like a bombsite as usual so I have got lots to do today around the kids. Starting with the kitchen and DR I think although the hoover is upstairs so once the kids are up I'll probably hoover up there.

    Ouch Sagaris - hope it feels better soon.

    :bdaycake:Happy Birthday embb - hope you have a lovely day!

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Well I've washed the dishes and done a HHC in the DR - I can now see a bit of the DR floor! The kids are now sorting breakfast out so there'll be a load more dishes and mess in the kitchen very shortly.

    Morning ladies, I had a better night last night so i'm hoping to get caught up today. I'll do a few bits now before my midwife appointment. So far I've done:

    1xWM
    1x sink full of pots washed
    Dishwasher emptied
    1 load of washing folded and put away

    I won't be changing the bedding today as DH will be going back to bed this afternoon. He works shifts and we only have 1 set of bedding so I have to do it on the right day in the shift pattern to give me enough time to get it washed, dried and back on again before it's required!
