As we climbed into bed last night, relishing the warm duvet against our cold skin I turned to he who helped create them and said ‘shall we do nothing tomorrow, have a rest day, maybe not even get dressed?’ Half asleep already he turned and replied ‘yes’ and then wandered off to dreamland.
Shopping
Slobber + Crayons = art?
Wall art….
Normally in my house we make our own. Twin Boy once took it upon himself to decorate the wall on the stairs with red and blue crayons. As his parents we can clearly see the artistic genius in the carefully thought out scribbles, but for some reason visitors to the house see it as merely looking like a child drew badly on the wall.
Dear holidaying teacher….
Week 2, Day 1….
My diary entry….
Dear teacher,
I had a wise plan today. As he who helped create them is studying from home I decided to recreate last weeks swimming nightmare by giving it another crack. However I totally pulled one over on the lifeguard by leaving BB at home in bed and only taking the twins…
We arrived ten minutes before the swimming session began. Good planning on my part as I wanted to ensure we got maximum return on my ten pound investment. I am northern and I don’t like to pay over the odds.
Parenting: Potty Training: Keep them incontinent ~ northernmum
A good friend of mine texted me today to tell me her son had christened the potty for the first time. I hasten to add her that she was also texting to say hi and wasn’t just regaling me with more poo stories. However, whilst remaining proud of her adorable little lad for firmly ‘dropping one’ in the pot; it was all I could do to not text back shouting;
“Noooooo don’t do it. Potty training is the devils work.”
It’s a bloody Nightmare……
I have issues,
I know I have a little bit of ocd but was unaware of how much it defined me with my children.
I like things away and tidy, I like my wardrobe to be ordered and my shoes in pairs in boxes.
