midnight + 3am tidying house!

Comment Published at 13:1413:148 comments8 comments27 Visits27 VisitsReport

Morning gals, am up for the three am feed and only just made it up hehe...bub's fed and had a cry, but wind has gone thanks to wind syrup! okay I was at it again...last night after 11pm/midnight feed I....

- packed toys away in two rooms and tidied them

- groomed the dog lemonade so he looked like a dog, not a sheep - lol (saved us about $100 bucks in grooming hehe)

- put a load of washing on

- played on the computer (oops thats not tidying)

and for the 3am tidying capers...

- load of washing in dryer

- load in washing machine

- sorted out a huge pile of beach towels and swim wear

- added to shopping list

- refused to empty the footy back pack thats for hubby to do as I didnt even go to the footy - lol (so he has a note to remind him hehe can you tell he hates tidying, but he is very good at doing allocated jobs lol)

- sorted out clothes

- put dishes in the right piles (thats right the dishwasher is waiting for emptying but we've been so busy with a boy each to look after, leaving it for housekeeper come monday - lol)

- put clothes away, computers plugged in to charge

- change baby, new romper on

- cut up a variety of coloured paper into small shapes and pieces on Codi's table in living room to encourage gluing coloured paper and making a collage and also scissors to practice cutting texta lines on paper

phew!

am now on Minti again and am making a milo, before going to sleep again for the 6 am feed...the good thing and lovely thing is that hubby gets me a chai and breaky from down the road when I wake up for the 9 am feed and I always wake up to a milo...oh and he did make dinner last night on the barbie, yummy!!!!

aaww its all worth it ladies my tidying bug, hubby is such a help!!!! [as I send him a compliment]

------

okay bad idea to tidying up last night :s - am totally sleep deprived ahhhh!!! No more tidying up for a couple of days

Good grief Rachel!  Leave it alone!  You just get your rest and leave the house for a couple of days at least!

You are tiring the rest of us out here! lol.  Now, back to bed sleepy head!

I'm so lucky in not waking up every 3 hours for my kids in the night, they all slept all the way through the night since they were less than 3 weeks old. Youngest was only 10 or 11 days when she slept through the night with out the feed, and before that she only woke for the one feed at 3am.

You must have alot of energy to keep getting up like that every day. I'd be exhausted by now.
