The Host Parents depart for a short trip to Mallorca on Tuesday.

We are alone! But I'll have some help from the Grannies!! :)

Monday!

Bringing the girls to school, and take foxie with us to play on the Green. (Playgrounden next to the school of the girls)

When the girls are in the classes, I drop Foxie back at home. And I have to go to the extra English classes. Afther the classes we have a coffee with the other Au Pairs.

Back to the house and take Foxie for a walk.

Went today twice to the Post Office. I couldn`t find the opening hours.. haha!

Around 2pm came the delivery man with the groceries. It took me one hour to sort everything out and in put it in the wright place!

Inbetween ironing. Love it.

Picked the girls up from school, and made the supper. Riceballs with tuna and vegetables.

After dinner the children having a bath, watch some TV with them and then off to bed.

Tuesday!

Start the mornings with getting the kids dressed and do some homework with them.

I only need to bring the girls to and from school. Monkey goes to another school so, he get collect by friends or the neighbours.

Had lunch with an other Au Pair. She is from Italy. We enjoyed some home made pasta!

When I've picked up the girls and Fred ( a friend from the girls who joined us for dinner) from school. I totally forgot that Monkey has Cricket on Tuesdays at 6PM. So supper wasn't ready at that time... Whoops. Grannie helped me cooking some quick dinner. The typical beans in tomato sauce with ham and cheese. Monkey really loved it.

The girls and Fred has eaten my sweet patatoe chips with cod.

Note to myself : Supper must be ready around 5PM.

Note from grannie : Always be 2 steps ahead with children. Not 1!

The rest of the day/evening went very well. Still learning getting used to their schedule.

Wednesday!

Again with the girls and Foxie to school. Throw some sticks for Foxie. She really loves that.

I have to go to the English Class again.

Back home from the class, I already prepared the supper. Stir-Fried Noodles with Broccoli and Chicken. Also finished the ironing.

Pick up the girls and go to tennis with them. I forget to bring the trainers...

I will be a great mom later! 😂

I keep forgetting things. Fortunately the tennis court is 5 minutes by car. So it didn't took long to get the trainers for the girls.

Back home tired and fulfilled their long day. Again the same tune :)

( Supper, Bath, TV, Bedtime Storie, Bed)

Thursday!

Bringing the girls to school and take Foxie with us. At the school is a very lovely route to have a walk. Back home made some brownies for the girls tomorrow.

Every Friday one of the children takes something from home (homemade)

Think about Cupcakes, biscuits, cookies,.... and so on.This week and next week it's the turn of the girls. Tomorrow they can bring the brownies.
