Morning everyone :)

JKS - eek school! Glad he was ok going, does he know anyone who will be in his class/year?

Alice - DS doesn't start pre-school until Easter but I'm already feeling a bit about it! Him starting will coincide with DC2's arrival though so I think by then I'll feel pleased to have a couple of afternoons a week just me and the baby! Thank God I didn't sign him up for mornings, that would have been tough to get out of the house for! [doesn't do mornings emoticon]

Mini - good call on the dermatologist, they will sort you out.

Wasting - I have no morning routine atm, what happens is dictated by how sick I'm feeling so we are all over the show! Really hoping I start to feel better in the next couple of weeks so I can get organised!

Upstairs in my house is really clean and organised, had a big sort out with DH at the weekend and we pulled out the furniture in all the bedrooms and cleaned behind. Downstairs is bad though, really need to sort it out as I would be Blush if anyone came round atm!

DONE
All up
DH to work
Breakfast

TO DO
Get DS dressed
Me showered and dressed
Make sandwiches
Out for lunch and softplay with friend and DDs
Unload dishwasher and 15 mins sorting and cleaning in the kitchen
Nap for DS
Find out where singing is tomorrow (new venue from last term)
Put away clean washing
Nap?
Dinner (not sure what, something with the mash in the fridge)

OPTIONAL EXTRAS
Hoover downstairs
Dust downstairs
Mop kitchen floor

minimammoth · 07/09/2010 10:00

Oh my goodness it took me so long to get ready to go out today! None of my clothes fit anymore, bump has arrived and no mistake. Had to start digging about for other things, but proper maternity tops just look daft and enormous, plus my boobs seem to be bigger than last time so they wouldn't fit into anything. Bugger. Wore an empire line dress and maternity leggings, think I looked pregnant and not just fat!

TO DO
Go shopping for new bras and maternity clothes.

FreakoidOrganisoid · 07/09/2010 14:14

Well, we've survived 9 weeks, only had one visit to A&E, and no major fallings out. That, in my mind, is not at all bad for what felt like it was going to be an endless summer.

I wrote a list (you'd be so proud!) back in early July of all the various things we could do for days out, etc, if we got stuck or fed up of each other's company, but honestly, I have only had to really fill the odd afternoon with a "planned activity" when the wheels were starting to come off. I'm going to miss the little tikes when they go back tomorrow, but BOY is it going to peaceful.. All together now.... AHHHHhhhhhhhhh....................... and relax.. . Nearly.

FreakoidOrganisoid · 07/09/2010 15:56
