H and I have been split 6 months now. We have 2 DS age 6 and 3. They go to his every other weekend for 2 nights. He also comes over sometimes in the evening during the week. This weekend was his turn to have them.
Obviously the weather has been glorious - I’ve had all of last week off work as it’s been half term and I’ve also managed to potty train DS2. So I’ve spent all week meticulously applying suncream to the DC as they’ve spent a lot of time in the garden. Several members of my family have had skin cancer and both children are quite fair especially DS2 so I’m hot on suncream. I sent suncream round with them on Friday and told H to apply every 2 hours when they were out.
Today they come home, not too red but a little, asked H if he had put any sun cream on them at all “no it wasn’t very sunny”
They were also in the same clothes today as they were in when I took them to his on Friday, their suitcases are full up with the unworn clothes. The clothes they were wearing were still a bit grubby from Friday. To make things worse they went to a party today.
Gave both kids a bath tonight and it was obvious that DS2’s bottom hadn’t been wiped properly. (sorry)
I just despair. Do I really have to tell him to put them in clean clothes (which I send with them), constantly remind about suncream and wipe the little one’s bum properly??? I feel like I have 3 children
