I hate my flat - Cabin Fever, Eating In and Eating Out rant

Is it normal to hate where you live when you have been living there for too long? is it normal to feel this way?? My kids are also growing up way too fast. For any of you out there who is a parent - the first year of babyhood just flies. When it comes to purchasing baby clothes unless you have a really small baby on your hands - you are almost better off buying one year up a size.

My eldest daughter -Isabella - 4 has just started school for the first time but sadly I had to take her out of the first school over a school bully! She is now in a far better school and I am steeped I managed to get her out of there in the nick of time. I didn't want to wait on the fence for her to get self-esteem issues etc. My middle child - son James is just turning 3 this Saturday...he has a food intolerance and I managed to somehow order a gluten-free cake which cost a bit more but oh well he deserves it. I am amazed at the lack of gluten-free birthday cake choices online. I am hoping he outgrows his gluten and dairy intolerance. Doctor thinks it might take until he is 8 years of age! So onto my baby son - baby David who is now 8 months old today...he is crawling and starting to really enjoy the other two kids. Its really nice they are all playing with one another and enjoying all the fun and games!

Thankfully I make it a thing for us to always get out of my flat...even if its a bit like a military operation at times. I think its good to mix it up for kids and give them something to look forward to on the week-ends as they miss us during the week cos both my partner and I work. As for eating out, we try to do that but obviously its expensive so we mainly cook at home. Bringing packed lunches to the park can be fun though and I recommend not bringing stale bread to feed the ducks with!! Isabella loves to eat the bread when she throws it at the ducks - James doesn't eat the bread - he is too busy working on his throw lol...and baby David well he is just cooing which is adorable to watch that gummy smile. Here is a diagram which I am sure a few of you moms out there might love when it comes to date night or eating out with the kids lol - enjoy :)
