thats putting it politely! All day long i have been running around after them. I am 24 week pregnant with my third and full of a cold so thats not helped.
It was a beautiful day here, so i filled up their paddling pool, no mean feat blowing it up and then working out the stupid hose! I got them in their cossies, stuck a load of toys in and watched them playing.
I made them some sandwiches, 2 slices of bread cut into four, because they were saying they were hungry...they both turned their noses up at them, and said they wanted sweets. erm i think not. 1 hour later, they finally eat a bloody sandwich. after ten mins of being cross i give them a little pack of sweeties. (little fizzer wizzler thingies)
5 minutes later, the fighting commences...the eldest teasing the youngest and i am feeling PRETTY unamused at this stage. Try to amuse them and get strops and chucking of toys.
I decide they are tired, go to get their cuskis (baby comforter) and find that my eldest has taken them down...where are they? in the swimming pool. ARGH! So i put them for a nap without cuskis and they proceed to mess for over an hour, finally going to sleep at 2.45pm.
This is where mean mummy comes in, i made them get up at 3pm as they are 3 and 2 and i dont let them sleep passed that. Of course they were whingy and i dont care! I am not in the mood now to do ANYTHING for them, because of hwo they have been behaving.
i know they are toddlers and toddlers do this sort of thing, but i feel like i have bent over backwards for them today and they have just taken the piss! (didnt say that to them of course)
