i have spent the week doing a job application and supporting statement to enter myself in all the local NQT talent pools! Feels very weird applying for NQT jobs for September in February, particulrly as I'm only half way through my course!

Have done none of the assignments I was supposed to do. Today I am planning for next week at school and then I'm having 2 whole days with my gorgeous kids who have been very patient with me this week.

It's DS's 9th birthday and he's having a sleepover, just one friend but said friend has lots of energy. Also dairy free so I'm stressing about food. Am hoping for nice weather tomorrow so we can be outside. I have an angry birds game planned.

Had a lovely morning at the botanical gardens once we actually got out the door, nearly strangled my two eldest for not listening To me and making me repeat myself and repeat myself! It was lovely and sunny and we were sorry we had to leave but one little one was due to be picked up and eldest is off to cinema with a friend so needed to get them fed.
Might go back tomorrow and take a picnic if the weather is as mild and sunny,, 11 degrees!

Off on Friday so dds and I will meet friends so that will be nice

Happy hump day everyone!

We've been to the park this am- 3x1 yr olds plus my 2. They enjoyed slipping around on the skate ramps as no older kids were around!

1 due to go soon, 2 in bed and my 2 watching a DVD. Little one started potty training and did first successful wee on the potty hooray!

My head is spinning! Only got my DD today and a two year old. They have both been in foul moods and have been winding each other up all day. Hubby is also off and so has just taken DD out to a farm and two year old is now in bed. Peace at last. For now, anyway. Feel like I haven't stopped all week. Will be quite sad for DD when the week is done though as she's not loving school at the minute. x

My dd is glad of a weeks break from
School too, her class is full or tween drama queens and she is a sensitive soul who finds it all a bit much! Hope things improve for your dd next week x

Did you see the thread last week about a sensitive mindee and someone posted a link for a book it's very good?
