We made birthday cards for Cousin C and Ms R wrote in hers, she’s able to write small enough that it fits but only if I mention it first.
Ms R made things out of lolly sticks and sweet wrappers while I tidied the lounge and read through two Jolly Phonics board books (we only have two because she never showed much interest before) while I put clean washing away. Both the R’s played with playdoh while I cleaned the kitchen, spent ages playing in the bath together while I tidied their bedrooms, ran around like loonies while I hoovered, watched Tom & Jerry while I made dinner and played with cars and dolls while I hung more washing up.
Ms R can finally keep herself busy although it is always in the same room that I’m in. I think it is the most housework I have done in one go since she was born. Hurrah for a tidy home!
I’m sure there were other things we did as well but I can’t remember now, I remember sitting down to have lunch together and having to fight the urge to switch the computer on.
For some reason we were all exhausted by bedtime.
