Turkey Sandwiches...
A quiet day today - The girls got up with Aggie about 7ish and I go a lie in till nearly 9! Then we swapped, as I looked after all three of them (mstr A woke up at 9 too!) and Aggie went back to bed for a few hours. We didn't even all get dressed until nearly lunch-time;-)
The kids have all played really nicely - with their own toys too, and with each other. It's felt a bit surreal really - like a TV family:-) Even Nanny A managed a whole afternoon here without cleaning anything!
We've not been as organised as last year, but all the washing up is done, the laundry is getting there, and homes have been found for some of the toys. Tomorrow is tidy up day ready for the new intake on the 28th - when cousins are coming for 2nd Christmas during the day, then it's the Crazie party in the evening - being hosted here for the first time ever due to my stupid allergies:-( I feel a bit guilty for stealing it off CQ - who has always organised & hosted it - but it will be good to be able to put the kids to bed and have a bit of grown up time too.
The food is nearly all one too - that's definitely an improvement on last year:-) Me and Aggie had second Xmas dinner for supper last night, and there was enough for turey sandwiches all round at lunchtime today, leaving just a few crumbs (and half a choccy Gateaux - but I'm sure that will disappear tonight), so all in all, not too bad. Hopfully I'll manage to get real food into everyone tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to a nice relaxing evening tonight - maybe a bath, and getting stuck into my new book:-)
