Claire started back at work today, which also meant it was Oliver's first day at the childminders.
Ollie woke screaming his head off at 4.30am, got him back to sleep but then couldn't get back to sleep ourselves, got up around 6, put the bottle steriliser on, boiled water up, put his morning bottle on to warm up, made Claire and I breakfast while she was getting ready upstairs, ate breakfast, realised I had forgotten to actually plug the bottle warmer in so it was still stone cold, plugged it in, ate my breakfast, went to get Ollie up, changed his nappy, made up his evening bottle and put it in the fridge, gave him his morning bottle, Claire came downstairs, ate her breakfast, then she got Ollie dressed while I went upstairs to get myself ready for work, I came down again, went outside to de-ice two cars, put the rubbish out, Claire and I then got Ollie's solid breakfast meal together, she went upstairs to dry her hair, her hairdryer then conked out, she headed off to work, I fed Ollie his solids, cleaned him up, cleaned myself up, got his coat on then got him and all the bags containing his stuff for the day into the car, dropped him off at the childminder, he cried, I felt bad, he smiled, I felt a bit better, came back home, got my scooter and headed off to work.
This is my life for the forseeable future. I think I must be on drugs.
