FlameSparrow · 01/08/2006 09:48

ARGH!! Housework and two children do not mix.

Get to kitchen to put nappies in machine... "MUUUUUUUUUM!" (DD is awake and wanting to come downstairs).

Get her set up with nectarine.

Get towels on the line and nappies in machine...

"Memrys likes naccle"

Stop 3 yr old feeding the 5 month old nectarine.

Do a few dishes.

Stop the fight over Boo (which she had GIVEN him to play with, but then gotten upset that he was chewing him)

Do a few more dishes.

Realise that DS isn't crying over the lack of Boo, but the lack of nectarine.

Take said nectarine and cut it into slices to feed to him.

9.49am and one wash load in... 3 towels on the line... and one bowl of dishes washed
