I have been a pretty crap mum for the past few months, as I have been having a miserable pregnancy and I am so tired all the time. But this afternoon I really surpassed myself.

We took a long roll of paper (wall paper liner from B&Q) drew around DD and then using fabric, wool, tissue paper etc, we made a life sized version of DD. Crafting with a 3 year old is pretty stressful, and was hard not to be controlling when she wanted to stick things in places they shouldn't be stuck but DD seemed to enjoy herself and it lasted for longer than I though (most of my ideas usually take hours of planning and then last about 10 minutes!)

Just wanted to share, am very proud of myself. However have no retired to the sofa and my back is killing me. My stint as super mum is over Grin

Yep, pretty much Grin

Last time I tried to do the super mum thing I was looking after a friend's DD, I made lovely homemade shortbread for them to decorate, made icing and bought jellies, mini marshmallows and chocolate for them to decorate them. The preparation took hours. The girls took 10 minutes to eat all the things I had bought to decorate the biscuits!
