What have we all done so far today?

I've had a lovely morning with my mindee (21 month LO), we went to the beach (luckily only 15 minutes away) and the park on the prom then took LO to a cafe for lunch.

He's now sleeping and I'm chilling on here

We went to soft play this morn then stopped at a little woodlands on the walk home to climb some trees and make a den! Then further on the walk home stopped at a park then eventually got home for lunch, then we painted flower pots so later they can plant some sun flower seeds for mothers day and now they are chilling with some lego play as all tired from our busy morning!
Got to plant seeds this afternoon and make cards and getting play doh out, then home time

Haven't done anything really. Boys didn't really need my input this morning, and this afternoon we were outside in the yard and they still didn't require my input. I did order a new viv for my latest snake though.

Have given notice to 4 mindees (5th one to do tomorrow) and sorted out via DH housing in our new military patch. Oh the joys of being a military wife!

Sounds like we've all had fun and interesting days!

Now to think of things to do tomorrow

[Bluebell]

I'm hoping the weather will be better tomorrow - a bit cold today!

We had a really nice day today.After the school run we went for a walk and looked at the boats and the ducks, then to the library. When we got home we read some books, played a bit, had some music on while they rocked out with guitars ( didn't really go with the nursery rhymes but they enjoyed it!) had lunch, played outside - got the water play out - I thought it was too cold but they all wanted to and really enjoyed it!

Then we did mothers days cards. Should have done that first as the paint was still wet! Then we went down the sports centre to collect my son who was swimming with the school - both the children I look after have siblings who are in the same year so were swimming too and I drop them there too. Then I drop my boys to my mum-in-law and then to work for 3 hours then the shop and now home! Only 2 weeks left of work now and then it will be full time childminding for me - has only taken me a year to pluck up the courage to chuck the job in!

Tomorrow my little grand daughter is coming round and when her mum leaves we are going to make a mothers day gift for her. Cant wait!

Been up since 5.30am and had breakfast. Got my own kids up at 7am then mindees arrived at 7.30am.
School runs then pre-school for oldest. Little one had a two hour nap so got on with accounts.
Pre-school run, did craft for mothers day, cooked lunch. Oldest so tired he fell asleep on the sofa, youngest spent time running around and pulling out all the toys out of the boxes.
Went for a drive half an hour before school ended just to get little one to have a nap. Eldest still so tired I had to carry him to the car still fast asleep
Got my own two from the school, did snacks, own kids friends came over (over 8yr olds X4) and they played in the garden with the little ones whilst I got tea ready and they all went home by 6pm.
Long day!
