I just cleaned my house...

[Dragonfly Fi]

... because i had no time today to do ANYTHING, i had a sling meet in Totton (about a 20min drive away) this morning, so i popped Jasper in the ring sling and headed out. I finished there, came home and ate something dead quick whilst playing with Jasper in his play gym

Then i went out into town with Jasper in the wrap, walked around town for an hour and walked home getting dinner on the way.

I tried to put Jasper down at 1500 but he just screamed and screamed and screamed (he is teething i think) so i popped him in the sling (still didnt settle) until i put The Prodigy on and jumped about like a manic for 20mins.

Then i made dinner, risotto with salmon fillets, sour cream and chive dressing. Ate dinner, bathed Jasper and fed him to sleep (couldnt deal with him screaming any more today!) Put him down, watched 'Stenders with OH who proceeded to join Jasper in bed as he had been awake since 3am when Jasper decided it was playtime...

So, for the last hour i have been tidying, hoovering and cleaning the house and doing the washing, because there is simply no time in the day

today i wore Jasper for at least 5 hours, watched three cups of tea go cold and spent approximately 20mins hugging my husband!

And they say it gets worse as they get older, tbh i have the fear!

hows everyone elses day been? x

I spend my days cleaning when sarah is aslepp - but as soon as older ones come in its bedlom with homework, tea,musical instruments and the usual madness that goes with a 7,8,and 10 year old. Then bath bubba with one of the older children (they like to take it in turns) whilst i rush round and tidy upstairs whilst sounding like a sargent major trying to get other two sorted. Sarah goes down first then its on to more orders, books and the like! I cook oh's dinner then when all is quite i look round to see...........................................................the house upside down again! Do i sit down and rest for a bit - too dangerous because i might not want to get up so off i go again, washing school bags on and on and on lol.

But we will have these lovely, beautiful things called mess making monsters!
