FreakoidOrganisoid · 27/02/2012 10:50

Smile ali, I love it when people compliment me on the dc's behaviour. Makes me feel like I'm doing a good job (even though I think it's mostly luck that I have such good children most of the time anyway!)

DS is off preschool with a temp today, house isn't too bad I suppose but could do with dusting etc

AnonymousBird · 27/02/2012 10:55

JKS - it is not irrational to get cross about that!!! Well, maybe it is, but it absolutely and completely understandable! I was a completely OCD control freak about naps in the first year or two, they ruled our lives!

My DD is such a hoarder, just went up to her room to tidy under her high sleeper and god, I found all sorts of stuff we've been looking for for weeks including the stalks from a bunch of grapes.... Hmm. Last year I found a tomato under her pillow so I suppose it is an improvement on that.

Having a try and stay out of the supermarket week to use up what is in the fridge and some freezer meals. I keep making freezer meals, but the freezer is just getting fuller so clearly we need to EAT some of the freezer meals!

However, having said that, I think the Waitrose "3 for £10 meat deal" which is fantastic might be coming to an end so I will need to do a swoop in there (which will fill the gaps in the freezer. ha ha!)

Meals for the week:

M - Left over pork with jacket and salad
Tu- Something from HFW Veg with whatever is in the fridge! Possibly his biryani..
W - Freezer meal plus jacket/mash
Th - OUT at theatre - tea with DC for me, DH will have to snack on the way
F - Spare Ribs and rice
Sa - OUT

AnonymousBird · 27/02/2012 11:45

Well DD must have heard me as she's been a dream this morning! She was whimpering a bit so i got out of the bath quickly & decided to leave her while i got dressed (being a bit hmph about it tbh) then she's been quiet for ages since!

Haha ALi at the farting, both DSs love it! DD hasn't quite got there yet.

Concert went fine, phew.
Walk round block (at pace as DS2 likes to run) - always makes me feel better yet so often I'm too lazy. Must do it more. Maybe even extend our route as DS2 is so much better about roads vs pavements.

Farting will always, always be funny. We were reading the other day and one of our stories mentioned "farting over the fence" and DD and DS were in absolute hysterics (and so was I for that matter!)

Morning everyone. I've had two very productive days, despite not managing to list. Just a short list today, Thursday is our lazy at home day.

THURSDAY
Finalise Waitrose order for tomorrow - done
Wash our bedding where DS1 wee'd on it this morning! (he forgot he had taken his bedtime nappy off) - in the machine
Another load of washing
Fruitloaf into the bread maker - get DS1 to 'help' me
Make lamb tagine for dinner
Anything else?
