No Domestic Goddess...

By NotNigella

It's Daddy- day!!

At least, that's what Wednesdays are called in our house - husband works a condensed week and is off on Wednesdays to look after the kids (at least, when I'm at work - if I'm also off then it turns into a tv catch up day for him - how does that work?!!).

A busy start to the day, I had to go to work for a wee change - a meeting with HR to sign off the redundancy paperwork as D-day draws closer... Seems our compensatory payment will be in the bank sooner than expected so that's a bit of a bonus! Then home in time for lunch and then we all went swimming.

Here's wee C and wee D all ready to hop into the pool - wee C is just showing wee D what he's supposed to do with his goggles. Wee C ended up wearing them herself a lot of the time, a bit of a breakthrough really as she's been a bit of a wimp in the past about getting her face wet. Wee D just thinks he's the same age and ability as his big sister, pulling off his armbands shouting "I do myself!", before launching himself away from me and promptly sinking... Didn't put him off though - I'm surprised though since he gave himself a few good dunkings! The boy has no fear....

All that swimming must really have taken it out of wee D, as he fell asleep on the sofa when we got home, curled up on his front with his bum in the air like one of those 80's cartoon cherubs, face all squished to one side, drool gathering in a little pool on the sofa... Yuck! But very cute!
