My toddler is currently wrecking the house and I have no energy to stop her

I can heae her in the front room 'lets have a picnic!' and has just tipped up her entire picnic box of toy food. You know the clang and clatter or destruction? She has done the same in the bedroom and has turfed out books in a storage box all over the bedroom. DH is doing other stuff and I know I should go in and stop her or tell her off or something, but I have no energy. I am so tired. So, so tired it is unreal.

At least she sounds happy in her destruction

Leave her to it! My one is naked in the garden right now, she is also having lots of fun!

Why are you so tired?

pregnant vomiting (although not today luckily) think I got a cold, fed up, that kind of tired. I went to bed at 11am, slept til 7am, back to bed at 11am, slept until 3:30pm . Still tired. DH has looked after DD since he got up at 10 or so, and he had been to the shops for my crumpet and peanut butter craving, took her to nursery rhymes so I cant really complain that he is now on the computer and ignoring the mess she has created.

She runs around like a whirlwind, I am sure he has fed her chocolate . But she is now calmer, watching wonderpets. She is, I think, actually tired, she goes a bit nuts when she is tired. Early night for her I think!

Wish we had a garden, she could run around in it til her heart was content and I could just zombie on a chair, no problem.

Mine also goes nuts when tired. I have found the Brum dvd is the only thing that she will sit still for.....for ages as well!

My advice, get a Brum dvd and put it on repeat!

Hope you feel better soon
