Oh the Exhaustion........

I am exhausted.........and I mean totally exhausted!!
Not just tired ~ but EXHAUSTED!!!

I have an extra little baby to look after for the next few months!!
SO ~ for the last 2 days I have been looking after a 5 month old, a 14 month old and a 4 year old, aswell as getting Dan and Lauren to school and back etc etc!!!
I never imagined that it could be sooooooo tiring! Keeping them all happy and entertained, feeding, changing nappies ~ making sure that they are all safe ~ not getting into any mischief ......believe me ~ it is a full time job ha ha !!!

I am hoping that after this week is over ~ I will be in the swing of it and won't feel like falling into bed at 5pm when they all go home!!!

I am off for an early night ~
Hopefully I will survive tomorrow ha ha ha !!!!

I shouldn't be moaning really ~ the extra money will make my bank manager a very happy man tee hee!!
AND we might even be able to manage a trip to the cinema this weekend!! (that would be me and the kids ~ not me and my bank manager bahahahahahah!!!!)
Night Night all............ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
XxX

Wow you should be exhausted!! A 5 month old and a 14 month old is tough enough then add 3 more and WOW that's insanity. My MIL has 13 kids and I.can't.even.imagine. Of course they're all grown now but back in the day...whew!

Hope you had a good night's sleep so you're raring to go. How long are you watching them for???

Much love from NJ,

Hi Tabitha

You put your heart and soul into caring for children so I can see why you are exhausted. Their mummy's and daddy's are very lucky to have you in their lives.

It sure is tough trying to keep little ones engaged and happy all day, every day.

I hope that you are settling into your new routine and feeling like you have a little more energy.

Tabitha, there is a great new site that has just been launched called Totally Tots. I am actually going to be submitting some craft ideas to it, but it is going to be full of wonderful tips and activities for toddlers. If you get a chance, you may wish to check it out. The address is:

Lots of love and hugs
Elise
