Shopping: FAIL
Left my wallet at home. Even had to swipe my parking ticket at Pick n Pay to get out of The Pav for free as I didn't have the R7 needed for spending under 1hr in the facility.
Tea with friend (and both babies): FAIL
Restaurant closed. Didn't help that I braved rush hour traffic to get there with Baby M screeching all the way. Walked to park instead. Carrying a kid in each arm. Did I mention how little sleep I'm getting? Boy, could I feel it!
Son was so disappointed in not having gone to the restaurant and cried "RESTAURANT!!! I WANT TO GO RESTAURANT" all the way home. So I picked up Robbie and off we all went to Primi Piati.
Restaurant for early family dinner: FAIL
Before we even realized you had to order at the counter, Son had emptied all the sugar onto the table and Baby M had began howling again. Another mission aborted!
Instead, I gave Son supper at home. What would he eat? Yogurt. Berry yogurt. 2 spoons only. With honey. Refused to bath. Then it took 2 hours to get him to settle down and go to sleep.
Mother: FAIL
Good night
PS- Robbie on the couch here says I did get them both to sleep in the end so I should rather end this post with "SUCCESS". Such a sweety.
