The carpets have been shampooed and the dog has too. The dishes did get done and the benches wiped down. Some of the washing got put away and some of the toys got tidied away. It has felt a bit less chaotic today, but it is still a shambles and I'm not happy about it.
We have had a terrible time with getting the twins to sleep in the last few weeks, at present they are both in their rooms in a state of emotional distress - sobbing to be allowed out. We have already had them up after putting them to bed once and although this makes them extremely happy, it doesn't help us to set a status quo around bed times and give us the all important 'quiet and kid free time' of an evening. I think we are stuck with the current situation for a while now until they get the message that they are not to get up after they have been put to bed - it's not fun, but necessary.
It has not been the best long weekend for rest, relaxation or quality family time. It hasn't been fun at all and at this point I am looking forward to getting back to work tomorrow - TGIM!
