to want my precious angels to be quiet for like 5 mins.

[thesockmonsterofdoom]

Because I have got a banging headache and they wont shut up, In fact the more I ask them the louder they get.

give me sympathy please.

is there nothing on CBeebies?

Can you send them off to play in a different room, have a quiet competition or perhaps feed them and hopefully their mouths will be too full for them to talk?

Will they sit quietly in front of a dvd for a bit?

As for you, take some paracetamol, drink plenty of water and get away from the computer screen!

cbeebies now on, just going to take some tablets, , why do they always creep up on me at this time of day so I get to go to bed rather than spend any time with dh.

Big sympathy from me too. Unfortunately the noise levels don't seem to change much as they grow up - the noises are just different, and they still produce the most noise when I have a thumping headache.

You could try a competition to see who can be quiet for longest with a chocolate button for the winner each time.
