The twins woke up at around 6am for a feed. I think they are having a growth spurt as they have been taking a few feeds.
I managed to get up at around 9 though and get breakfast ready for Wolfie and I.
I changed and got the twins ready and while they napped I tidied up a little in the kitchen and sorted out some washing. Devil boy took Wolfie over to his grandmas while I got ready to go out to the parentcraft reunion. Devil boy did not want to come along to the reunion with me.
I did lose track of time at once point but thankfully all I had to do was put jackets on the twins and put them in the pram and dash out for the train. I was worried at first when I got to the train station, as there was no one there. Thankfully though it was because I was there early and I was able to get the train. I had a funky chat with a nice couple on the train on the way over.
The reunion went really well. It was nice seeing some of the other women that went to the parentcraft classes with me and see not only how some of the twins have got along but also to see the twins that have been born since the last reunion.
There was a woman who was due a day or two before me and she had her twins on new years day. She was telling me that she is really not looking forward to going back to work. She was also telling me that they are not being very nice to her as well. She was trying to work out different things so that she would not have to go into work often but still work the same amount of hours but they were not cooperating at all. She said that she never thought that =she would feel like this before she has her twins.
There were a few of us that had one boy and one girl. There were four sets of boy/girl twins. The twin’s were really good and the midwife who was running was lovely to me. She held one of the twins while I dealt with the other. He also made me a cup of tea. It was really nice and I had a funky chat with the others.
I managed to get a bit of reading on the train back home as Elbereth and Malach fell asleep. The afternoon has been exciting for them as well.
When I got back I sorted out the washing. I took the nappies off the line and put out the new washing before feeding the twins and getting some lunch.
They settled quickly and Devil boy asked me to go out and fetch some Guinness for him while he bathed Wolfie. When I was out at the local shop I decided that I would go to a different shop as they still have the special offer on them. I also felt like a nice walk as well. The weather was nice to walk in.
I was happy when I got back to find that Devil boy had managed to get Wolfies room ready so I did not need to do anything apart from feed the twins. Devil boy read till Wolfie was asleep. He thankfully stayed asleep though. We will see what the night brings though.
He was going to tidy up the living room when I told him that I would do it. After I had got the twins settled I managed to clean the toys up, and clean the kitchen and fold up the nappies and clear the sofa just in time to give the twins their last feed of the day. I also watched the documentary the blue planet. It is so interesting.
I changed and fed them so all I need to do is quickly wipe the sides in the kitchen get a drink and rest and read for maybe 15minutes before crashing.
