Hectic Day
Just got to the end of a hectic day looking after my 2 x 5 year olds G/c.
Due to unavoidable circumstances when G/c #3 was taken into hospital last night with breathing difficulties, and suspected Chicken Pox (CP), I got the job of amusing the twins.
It seems that a certain type of CP can cause chest infections as well as the usual spots. Anyway he and his Mum were discharged today, since the hospital didn't want them around with the possibility of spreading C/P to other kids.
So, back to today...
0905 - twins dropped off at our house by their Dad
0905 - 1100 - playing board game and a spelling game
1100 - 1300 - off to an old quarry (now a visitor centre) for games on the grass (hide the dinosaur), and a walk
1300 - 1500 - visited an old tramway museum, where we walked (in the rain at times) and had rides on an old Leeds Tram from the 1930's
1500 - 1600 - drove back home via the shop to buy food
1600 - 1630 - cooked dinner for the twins (plently of protein, fruit and milk)
1630 - my wife came home early from work.
She said she could tell I was exhausted when she spoke to me on the 'phone. She took over and watched a video with the twins (Wall-E)
1830 - twins went home to see Mum and Dad
1900 - me feeling rung out + headache
Never mind
All good fun and what Grandparents do...eh?
