Hello - we have been lucky enough to be able to move from our flat to a house but I am now really struggling to get myself and the DC (3 and 2) ready in the morning. In our flat I could have a shower, put my make up on, get dressed, dry hair etc etc all within sight of the DC's who would be in the living room watching Cbeebies or just pottering around behind me. An hour later we would all be out of the door for nursery/work.
Now we are in a house, all our routines are completely shot! I can shower at night but I still need to be upstairs to get dressed etc and I don't want to leave them downstairs on their own for more than 5 mins or so.
What do other people do? When my DH is around in the morning he holds the fort so I finish getting ready but I want to find a system that works for when he is not around.
They seem to be quite happy to run about upstairs while I shower and do my hair etc so maybe that's the answer and I just forget the multi tasking of them having their milk and TV while I get ready!
