Got my girls back.

It’s been lovely to have a bit of time off, it’s lovely to have a clean and tidy house, it’s lovely to have spent more quality time with Max and Josie. But it’s great to have them back.

Fran has successfully polished off a couple of Brownie badges, including a late night star spot for “Stargazer” with Grannie last night, they’ve all clearly had a lovely time. My dad has done “Computer” with her, so she can now use a whole host of professional page design packages. Bound to be useful :)They’ve been home a good 30 minutes and Maddy has cried 6 times about things we’ve changed. I think she might be a little tired :lol:. So i’ve plonked them straight down in front of a dvd.

Today i’ve blitzed their room, reduced the cuddly count by 50% i suspect, turfed out old, borken and tired games and jigsaws. i’ve got a huge ebay/mp pile and i daresay that is only a 1/4 of what i “could” have ebayed.

Josie has added two more baby “must-do’s” to her list today – pulling a chair over on herself while using it to pul herself up and standing up next to, but not holding on to, mummy’s leg so that when mummy moves she simultaneously knees baby in face and knocks her flying. Whoops again.

Still can’t find the cot bits though, which means the crib agony is prolonged. made me howl last night. I really must try to get to grips with this. I think a combination of baby clothes sorting, partial crib dismantling and the fact that i managed to change channels 4 times over the weekend directly into people giving birth (without so much as breaking sweat according to CBBC) or in operating theatres wherre women were screaming and bleeding to death, probably didn’t help.

Right, that list then.
