Today's mission

Looks like we are in the kitchen, which is always a good one for me to start on

TMH Is ds2 3?! Time is passing me by too quickly.
Tantrum is fairly standard here, too but thankfully ds gets over them very quickly (and wets himself at any old time so I can't blame tantrums for that.

GO I am assuming you will pop in at some time....just wanted to say thanks for including me in emails. It makes me to be remembered

[TheMadHouse]

Jas I know where does time go? Our boys are growing up. I miss you too

Swan Weekend breakfasts are a little more porridge during the week, we were using up what was left.

It is the spec's I am about, he actually snapped the leg in half and pulled off the nose bits. He is now asleep on the sofa

I have done my bedroom, stripped bed, part made bed and put washer on

I hung washing out for it to be rained on

I am having a cup of tea and then going back upstairs.

I have a really busy day tomorrow so have arranged for DS2 to have his first sleep over at my mums tonight She is at the hospital in the morning so can not come here and I have DS1's meet the teacher. I am very nervous. They are growing up and I miss them soo much

Jas thanks for the thread and mission, it's finaly kicked me into sorting the paper mountain on my kitchen side

I know I've missed afew threads my knee is still hurting so i'm feeling really useless, mainly because I keep forgetting and bending it too much when changing nappies or tidying up etc. and end up worrying the dc's screaming in pain. At least they care and ask i fI'm ok before telling me off for not being careful
Sorry ds is being really stressy this morning so I'm goign to try and put him down for a nap.
BBL to finish this entry!

TMH, have you tried inside the duvet covers or bottom of a sleeping bag? Maybe ds1 will have the answer when you pickhim up.

Afternoon

DS1 had a great school lunch and would like to have them from Setpeber - cool

Picked up parcel - organised mum calender and boden sale stuff for DS1 next year- oh and a pair of shorts and a dress for me, which I will try on later. I try and get they nexy years stuff either in sales or on e-bay and TBH Boden sale is sometimes less than what it goes for on ebay and I like their shorts.

Dinner for me and DS2 cooking - home made sausahe rolls - his request

Swan I have checked the ready bed, the boys beds, under the beds. Dyls checked all the high units. DS1 doesnt remember the toy and friends LO (2.11) said its where MadHouse washes her plates (the sink)

Left washing on line and it rained again

To Do's

Ironing and put away
Finnish bed - with DH
Take DS2's sepcs to the opticians
Go to the park with both
Whats for dinner
Pack DS2's overnight bag

I am tired, Groucy I really feel for you mrs - take it easy

I also need to start looking out for free thigs to do with them both over the school holidays, as DS1 finnishes on Friday
