    Omg morning session was tough... 2 yo in with a general cold. And my god she has a set of lungs on her and a squeal that would pierce your ear drums... so she set of the wee 5 month old crying who then went past her tired stage so she squealed with the same volume. Settled the baby bottle and bed and 2 yo just settled with TV and a high chair seems to like sitting in a high chair for some reason and it has to be the red one. The 3 yo has a bad cough and now 2 yo flat out coughing. Went to take her temperature earlier and you would have swore I was trying to kill her with the fight as he put up and the screaming. All this and it's not even lunch time. Did text her dad to see if I could give calpol as she was very warm and crying get a lot and general bad form. Hope he might collect a little earlier than 5.30 fingers crossed 2 after schools in at 3. No activities today as I don't think I could cope with the mess and crying... free play all day and a film this afternoon roll on this evening

    Ive had a similar morning. 2yr old who was tired set off 12m old so both crying

    Both had a good sleep and are now fully refreshed

    Roll on 5.30pm...or 6pm for me (although it will probably be 6.05pm as it usually is )
    Time Out.. The perfect time for thinking about what you're going to destroy next.

    Does your hug have wine lol. . Had to pop 2 and 3 yo into a pram about half an hour ago as both were really crabby and fighting and tired. There is silence in the sitting room and I'm in the kitchen with the others. Hoping they go for a nap if not an hour of silence is as good maybe they get up rested and less crabby

    Sending hugs to all who had a stressful day xxx

    I've had a surprise finish at 3.00 instead of 5.30 so wine o'clock started early this week (especially as hubby was finished at 4.00 instead of 6.45!)

    Have a FAB relaxing weekend all!
