Valli.. Your mums attic must be like the tardis!

Babies bathed and dressed, swimming stuff sorted, approved foods order delivered and stashed.

I'll feed Dot and see if she will go down for a nap and get some cleaning done this afternoon while OH and Squeak swim .. Next week I should have 2 afternoons to clean.. and I need to find a local tuesday or monday playgroup to take these 2 to.. I think it will do Squeaks immune system good!

Mummyyof5 (((HUGS))) what a lot of worry for you; I hope all the blood tests and stuff come back with good results.

BM is on to do pizza dough at the moment; once that's done, I need to make a loaf.

Washing is once again on the A-frame over the bath.

Managed to take Lucy out in between the showers this morning; may not be so lucky for her next walk, as the wet stuff looks to have settled in for the afternoon.

May get around to throwing a duster round the bedroom later - if we're lucky!:D

Afternoon all

Hugs to the Mums with eczema kids - it must be tough, does the pollen count make them worse?

I've cleaned DS2's room today and done my dailies. Just had my haircut and it is so much better.

I accidentally upset DS3 this morning. He asked if FC was real and as he is 10 I thought he was ready to know so told him. He was not happy about it. All this on the way to school. I wish I'd not told him now

AF is here early again but explains the clumsy day yesterday and today's headache and tearfulness

I need to think about dinner now and then S&S the toilets and sinks. Trying to get the tent from the DofE dry but not easy with the showers, it's in the garage now.

i think if he asked he must have been doubting anyway so was probally looking for confirmation either way, it could be something thats come up at school.


ive never had that conversation with any of mine not sure if they keep going for my benefit or me theirs but we are all happy to go along with the fact hes real. i dont know what id say if they actually asked outright as i like to believe in angels faries and all things magical,
a few months ago a friend of one of the older girls was round and on about him not knowing if her parents foster kids believed or not. mine all looked at her in horror and said you cant say that of course hes real. he comes if you believe in him and stops when you dont, so youd better keep believing.
bearing in mind the ages of mine in the room were 12, 17 19 and 23 i was pretty happy.
i will be singing i believe in father christmas for the rest of the day now:o

Mrs MP he's still upset and I think you've made me feel worse! Not your fault, I'd never told the others either (16 and 18) and am gutted I said it, blaming it on AF. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Huge hugs Dusty - far better he asked you and you told the truth than he asked at school and got twisted stories from others.

When someone told DS1 at school he wanted to know why I had lied to him, and why it was fine to lie when it suits me .

Nothing much done yet, did lots last night but we are back to a tip. Minimum of bins emptied and out, DW, TD and a good hoover required just to stand still.
