We have had quite a busy day so far but I love it! With my only two speeds being flat out or stop, I thrive on having a busy rush around kind of day...only after a full nights sleep of course because doing that sort of thing when you are exhausted and have kids in tow would be insanity on a stick!
Anyway, I woke up thinking we had plenty of time to get ready so I stuffed around cleaning the bathrooms and playing with the kids. Then I looked on my calendar and realised that the appointment that I thought was at 9:45 was actually at 9:15! So it was all hands on deck to get sorted and out the door as quickly and efficiently as possible (losing half an hour is a really big deal on a busy day). We made it to our appointment with minutes to spare and after that, we headed down to the park for Mum's Group. We stayed there for only a short time and I admit, I totally blew my no sugar no dairy thing. You see, Kat's husband is a chef and Kat brought along the most divine berry and almond tarts with vanilla cream on top that her hubby had made. Not a single fiber of my being could have stopped me eating them and I tell you what, they were worth every bite!!! Absolutely delicious! Oh man, why does bad food taste so damn good?!?! I have to say though, after eating sugar, I am feeling really tired compared to the increase in energy I have had over the last few sugar free days. Interesting.
From the park, we headed over and picked up my brother's girlfriend, Jayde and took her out for lunch. It is her 21st birthday and she was spending it all alone at home. Not on my watch! Birthday's are a big deal so the kids and I took her to a cafe and we enjoyed some tasty lunch. I'm not sure if everyone else in the cafe enjoyed their lunch with Elliott filling his nappy, Elliott squeezing tomato sauce all over the floor, both kids banging their drinks on the table and Sophie talking in her loud "look at me" voice. Just a normal day for me :)
Now, as I am typing my blog, I am battling to get the kids to sleep. Elliott closed his eyes for literally 3 minutes in the car on the way home so as far as he is concerned, he's done with napping for the day. Sophie just keeps coming out asking if rest time is over. No it is not!! I love my children and in order to love them more, I need that break from them during the day. So it looks like the busy theme will continue for the afternoon with neither child sleeping, a few groceries to buy and a birthday cake to be made. It never stops in this mad house.
