Waking up is hard to do!

This week has been a mish-mash of runnign around playing catch-up.

Not once have I been able to crawl out of bed before 7:50 am. This not good. Patrick can stealthily awake at 7, leave the house for half past 7 and I am still snoring ... none the wiser. What's even more worrying is that my children are sleeping in with me! I mean .. I used to count on them to be my alarm clock... I am ACTUALLY gonna have to set one!

Patrick has the right idea. If you are awake, and the kids are not, then you HAVE to practise you secret agent skills because they hear every squeak. So Patrick, you must be ready for MI-5 Agent 008.

The kids are eating cereal right now. I want to try giving them a hot breakfast. But it does not always happen. I am hunting for clothes, school uniforms , library books, and PE kits!

Adam stayed home yesterday, he had a cold, so we dropped Carys off at playgroup and then played BEN-10 top trumps.

I have had to tighten the waistband on all of Adam's trousers. He has lost weight, so Nina... all those lovely softish trousers you sent fall off him!
