Where you are just following them around cleaning up noses, clearing up the carnage of books and toys?

Even when we were outside!

I have 3 under 5 today, all between 12 months and 17 months - so much fun, yet so much mess.

I am having great fun although my mindees don't come back til Monday. I have been pressure washing the patio and all the Little Tykes things - house, climbing frame, slides etc! Soaking wet trousers! Have just stopped for coffee and MN catch up!

Crace - your day sounds just like mine!!
All mindees seem to have runny noses at the moment and I am constantly on snot patrol.
I have mindees aged 2,3,4,6,6,9 and my own ds aged 7. Only have 1 left to go home and he is asleep at the moment, finally got a minute to have a hot cuppa and get the house and garden back to some form of normality.

We had a lovely time today with mindees and my own children, 2.6,2.9,6,7,and 9. Been to the park this morning, two have now gone home, last one asleep and she will play in the garden with my 6 and 9 yr olds (and possibly 12yr old DD if she shifts herself from the sofa and gets her nose out of her book!!!)
