Blimey - not surprised you feel overwhelmed!

I only have one Ds 14mths and I hate this time of day - tea, bath, bed.

UANBU - men!

bellydancer, lock the door - dont let him back in, at least until he begs!!! Is that a regular occurance or a one off?

Thats awful. I only have one ds who is 10 months old. When dh comes home He will take over for an hour or so just so I can have a bath or come on here or just to sit on the sofa and watch tv.
I feel so sorry for you
