Day One.

So it's only day one, and I only just scraped by. I think it's because I left it so late to start my 'challenges', but I very nearly didn't have enough time to complete anything and relax before James got home from work. I don't like writing posts in front of him because he makes fun of me, ha ha, so I wasn't going to post until tomorrow morning, but luckily James has had to go out to get something for work and he will be a couple of hours.
The tasks weren't hard themselves, it was just hard to find time to do them as well as doing all my other daily tasks too. I think it's because I weren't at home over the weekend to do my usual tasks so they kind of just built up and there were twice as many and they all took twice as long as usual. But never mind, the main thing is I made it!

Task One;

Task one was to empty the babies' kitchen cupboard and clean it.. Then to wash and sterilise the bottles I have bought for pumping so that James can feed Tyler too. Then to put them away in the cupboard.. Lilia and Tyler have to share a cupboard in the kitchen because there is just not enough space in our kitchen to spread them about. I took less than two minutes to empty the cupboard out and move some junk around that had just built up in there, eg an empty gift bag ha ha. It took even less time for me to clean the cupboard with antibacterial spray and a cloth.. But finding places to put everything took like five to ten minutes, ha ha ha. Luckily for me, Lilia was napping while I did everything so I had plenty of time to think things through first. I took the liberty of taking a before and after picture, just so you can see I actually did do something, ha ha. I know the cupboard still looks full and cluttered, but that is organised clutter.. I promise!

Task Two;

Task two was to go for a walk with Lilia, spend an hour playing with her, and read a book with her. I feel like such a horrible person, because this one was the one which I didn't complete. I played with her, read a book with her, but I didn't take her for a walk.. The reason behind this is my possible sciatica. My back has been playing up all day, same as my leg, and I just couldn't go for a walk. I did make up for it with lots and lots of cuddles, but I feel like I could have done more to spend time with my baby girl. Never mind, I had a lot of fun spending time with my Princess anyway :) I didn't get photos of Lilia with her book like I wanted, but I did manage to get a few cute snaps of her when we were having a tickle fight :} Sorry about the blurring, it is very hard to get her to keep still these days!

Task Three;

Task three was to CIF clean the draining board, wash and soak oven rings, and wash and soak drying rack. This was such an easy job and took like two seconds to clean everything, minus the soaking time of course. I didn't know what photo I could take for this task because you can't really pick up the difference in the drying rack or oven rings on my camera after the soaking. So I just snapped my draining board before and after. Pointless photo, I know, but I didn't want to leave a task without one, ha ha!
