No energy!

I've not been very motivated today I'm at home with dd 7 mo who has just learnt to crawl and I feel exhausted! I've done dinner in the slow cooker, general cleaning and tidying and given baby breakfast, lunch and put a wash on. But a lot of the time I've just been sitting with the baby not really doing anything! I just feel really tired today. I hope I get some motivation tomorrow. Anyone else just not feeling energised today?!

Me! Feel like someone has drained all the energy out of me - oh and I have a seven month old too (plus a 3.5yr old)! Have been to work this morning and taken dd1 swimming now lying on the sofa trying to work up the energy to start tea. My theory is that it's seven months without a full nights sleep catching up on me.

Oh I don't know how you manage 2! She's a good sleeper at night (at the moment anyway!) but during the day her naps are so short and I just feel like I just do housework and then just as I sit down to rest she wakes up again! I keep thinking tomorrow I'll do an exercise dvd while she naps..funnily enough that hasn't happened yet. And the crawling...my goodness she just doesn't stop!

The older one can be very helpful for entertaining the baby (when she's not poking her or stealing her dummy!). We're only just starting with crawling, a sort lopsided commando crawl at the moment! I just keep telling myself that as long as the house is clean it doesn't matter if it's not completely tidy - still do need to feed them though!!
