What part of the day do you dread?

[Wilsey]

I'll also add any time my husband is working. If he's working a day shift he's left before the kids are up and I'm doing the morning routine and getting them to daycare solo. If he's working a night shift I'm getting them to bed on my own. Shift work is the worst!

I have 3 times during the day that I dread/hate:

1st thing in the morning. Malcolm apparently doesn't like to sleep past 5:30 anymore, and I am not a natural morning person - at all.

Diaper changes - he fights so freaking hard and if he's dirty it ends up everywhere.

Bathtime - you'd think I was torturing him! To the point of he gets a bath once a week where I have to ignore him screaming, soap him up and rinse him with the showerhead, usually getting soaked myself

Easily bedtime. This can take anywhere from 45 mins to 2 hours.

And then when you have two, you're going between the two rooms settling them. Ahhhh the joys

Hehehe sorry Don't worry, tonight I didn't have to go back in once! (probably just jinxed myself )

when oh reaches for a spoon at the very bottom of the dishrack, knocking dishes into the sink and on the floor, thus causing a huge kerfluffle and waking us at 4:30 in the morning. now I have a miserable toddler, oh swans off to work. we'll miss our swimming playdate AGAIN today, as she will be now be napping through it.

It'd have to be bed time, or meal time for me! LO does everything she possibly can to avoid going to bed, or eating her dinner. She'll never eat a full meal, I really don't know what she's living off at the minute! It's a struggle. Bedtime is a nightmare, because she'll get in bed, then just sit up for ages! She won't get in bed and just go to sleep straight away, she has to lay and talk to herself for a good hour before! Problem is, she's so tired the next day I don't know what I can do, to get her out of the habit!? I don't know what I can do to get her to eat a full, healthy meal either! We also have a tantrum every time she has to put her coat on, that's only started just recently, but I'm not too sure why!
