Morning all! Happy New Year from my more sober self!

Dishwasher is on it's second load and I have been cooking for 2 hours.

Dh, who promised to help, has only just got up. Pffft!

I have already had my Mum on the phone in tears because she has had a row with my Dad (both of them are coming round here for lunch - great) Kids have had a fight. So 2012 is just a normal day then??

Nevermind, hopefully now dh is up we can have some breakfast and the kids will then be in a better mood (and me).

What has everyone got planned for today?

(P.S. I have shined my sink already)

Morning everyone, Still a bit hangovered here but have:
Got dressed
Made all beds
and updated January's calender

Hope your family all sort themselves out Carrots

I can't face shining sink yet.

Happy New Year!!!

I was up at 4ish & 645 with the snotty baby, and DH woke me up when he got into bed at 2ish .

DD2 woke us up screaming at 645 & continued to scream for almost 20mins until I managed to distract her by showing her a Baby Einstein thing on YouTube! . I think her teeth must be giving her grief as she didn't feed well last night or this morning, so I am also fairly uncomfortable. I dropped her 11am feed last week, but may have to reinstate it today (does this count as decluttering?)

I've cleaned the bathroom sink and prepped up lunch. I have also been the "bad guy" and made DD1 go upstairs straight after breakfast to get washed & dressed (rather than playing downstairs in PJs with DH for hours) in an attempt to start to get things back to normal.

DH is tired & grumpy from his late night (of course I am nothing but sweetness & light) so I am staying out of his way as much as possible until he has consumed the required levels of tea.

Are you going to clean all your sinks or just the kitchen one?

Sorry carrots I forgot to say, I hope your family behave themselves today (how many naughty steps do you have?) - perhaps send them all out for a walk at the earliest opportunity?

Happy New Year!!! to all.

I think both my sinks need doing but it will be a job for later in the day here.

It's ok bessie I got really shouty and they all suddenly got a grip - well the ones at my end anyway. I have no control over how my dparents behave. Dh is currently dusting the tv stand thing though and ds now has clothes on.

I have front door naughty step, back door naughty step and naughty step on the stairs - do you think that will be enough

Poor baby bessie - it is awful for everyone when little ones are so unhappy. I hope the daytime comings and going distract her a bit.

I am off to have a soak in the bath and then clean the bathroom. I will try to do all sinks except utility room but can only promise kitchen and main bathroom for now.

And bessie decluttering of the boobs is essential. Ouchy! Can you express a bit even and put it in the freezer? I know it doesn't reduce supply but a compromise of half way might help a bit.

On my 3rd Coffee here. We are going to have a Fry up for lunch (Medicinal purposes only) .

DH is helping out by doing some washing up.

mmmmm sounds good black! The girls have gone for a nap, so we are too Zzzzzz

Mmmmmm That feels better. We had a full English. DD just had a butty with sausage and egg.

Right my next job is to clean up the kitchen.

Is anyone on the naughty step yet Carrots?
