A typical Tuesday

Today, like most days I have to attempt the supermum status. So much to do, not enough hours in the day? You know the kind.

So... up at 6.30?? Not today!! Matt let me sleep in as had a headache so was up at 7am, he's feeding the kids so job done there. So, throws banana down my neck (fruit honest 😂) and run upstairs to get the girls clothes, I could have prepared last night but slimming world was more important (1st night - watch this space) and then cumpulsory walking dead!! Just started season 3! We're a little behind and only started last week! Anyway... got mollie dressed and done Leighas hair. She went upstairs to wash and I got washed and dressed then matt done the same. Out the house by 7.45!

Walked to school, dropped Leigha off, walked to Tesco, picked up few bits then bused home. Mollie was asleep by the time we got home so that means all systems go:  clean clean clean!! By this time I have 50mins til I need to leave the House again! Floors, tidy clothes off the living room floor, clean the sides, put a wash load on, put food down for cats, fill out slimming world diary and some online registration and it's time to leave! Mollie still asleep! Off to see matt for his break - another 45 mins worth of walking.

Still to do:
- pick Leigha up and get home
- cook nutritious meal that is likely to either decorate my kitchen floor or be thrown away by one of the kids. Hell I wasn't busy enough already!
- do reading and homework with Leigha and be on the look out for mollie not trying to ransack the livingroom
- bath and read a story to girls
- vacuum and dishes and clean floor again!
- put kids to bed mollie at 6.30 & Leigha at 7.30
- die on sofa

Eat sleep repeat 😀😫😀

Where we begin!

How do I even begin!?  I am Sam. A busy Mum of two girls. We have Leigha who is 6yrs old and Mollie who is currently 10mths old. Myself and my fiancé of nearly 6yrs lead a busy life. Matt (my fiancé) works as a kitchen manager and works a lot of hours, leaving me to do most of the children's care by myself. When he's home he's fabulous but generally speaking I've created a routine to suit me and he just blends in and helps when he's here.  A bit of backstory. My girls have different dads. My ex of 5yrs ended our relationship only to find out 6wks later that I'm expecting. Talk about timing. He's still in her life but fast forward til Leigha being 7mths (Feb 2011) old I met the most amazing man who I'm now proud to call my fiancé. We got together (4th march 2011)  and him being the young age of 19 (me being 21), decided to take me and Leigha on as a pre-started family, falling in love with us both. Him and Leigha have been close ever since. So mu...

I'm back 😀

Hi again everyone! So... I haven't posted anything for a while. Reason is I've gone back to work! Exciting and scary times. I've been fortunate enough to get a job with my fiancé. He is the kitchen manager and I'm a waitress/bar staff. While we don't work in the same room for most of the time, it works for us. I adore everyone I work with, along with Matt and myself, my brother and his girlfriend and Matts brother also worth with us. Turning it into a family business slowly! Haha! We work at a carvery based restaurant. It's a lovely family restaurant and it's very popular. I work part-time, a couple of days during the week and usually on a Sunday. I'm lucky enough that my mum has the kids for me. Usually just mollie but both girls on a Sunday and during school holidays. I've been working around a month now and I'm really enjoying it. I will not lie, I'm tired. Mentally and physically. It's very hard being away from Mollie. She's on...

Half term holidays so far...

This week is half term and we have our nephews staying with us for the week. So far we have done: Tuesday:  A 6mile walk and had lunch en route. On the walk we played football in a pitch we found in stony Stratford near the rocket park, we played tag and enjoyed ourselves. When we got home we relaxed and watched movies and had dinner. Wednesday: The boys dad (Matts brother) took the two boys and Leigha to the cinema to watch the lego batman movie and they had a great time. Matt was at work and so me and Mollie had some time at home to play and have sleepy cuddles (Our fave!!). We met Matt for his lunch break at work and we had a bite to eat too. Mollie had mashed potato and veggies. Loved it!! Later that afternoon/ evening we watched zootropolis and finding Dory. Both brilliant films!! Kids then had dinner and had baths and was put to bed. Today: my mother in law (also all the kids Nan) is visiting today. Matt isn't happy to be working but he finishes at 5pm and so he gets a ...
