Alright, hi guys!
Jackson has his third ever
settling-in visit at nursery this morning.
He is starting to do two mornings a week now.
So this is like the practice to get him into it.
So, Daddy's gonna drop him off
because I really struggle with it.
Okay, so Matt has just taken Jackson to the nursery
and I am waiting to receive a text to see
how he did going in.
I'm feeling a bit sad about all and anxious,
but I know he will love it.
So he's starting nursery and Caleb's starting reception
and Fraser is starting the juniors.
So I feel really emotional that they're
all just growing up at lightening speed.
I just feel like where have the past seven years gone?
It's gone so, so quick.
But I am looking forward to getting
into a bit more of a routine.
This summer has been lovely, but you know what it's like
when you're just running around like a headless chicken
all the time trying to please everyone.
It will be nice to get back into a routine
and in today's video, I'm also gonna be showing you
something that will be part of the boys' evening routine
every Monday from September.
Nick Jr. have launched something called Mission Mondays.
So every Monday from September starting today at 4 p.m.,
they will have brand new shows
of your kids' favorite series.
So they will have shows
from "Blaze and the Monster Machines",
from "Shimmer and Shine, "Paw Patrol",
"Nella", "Top Wing", and "Rusty Rivets", as well.
So if your kids like those shows,
it's a great chance for them to sit down
watch one that they've never seen before,
which will keep them engaged
and for you to just get on top of things after school.
I never feel guilty for my kids having
a little bit of TV once they get in from school.
I know when I was working full time
and running around all day,
I would come home from work and just plonk myself down
on the couch for a little bit.
So I do let the boys just chill once they get in.
We normally make a really cute little den,
and then they can sit and they can watch TV,
and that is a real treat for them.
So to have brand new shows every Monday
from September is gonna be great.
They will probably just watch
"Blaze and the Monster Machines"
cause that is their ultimate favorite.
All of them love cars.
So I'll sit them down and then I'll be able to get dinner on
and do a quick little speed clean,
cause you know I love a 10 minute tidy up.
So I'm gonna be showing you a bit more about that
later on in the video.
But I wanted to mention it right at the beginning
because I think it's so good for moms.
Nick Jr. just understand that sometimes
we just need a few minutes to get back on top of things.
You could even have a bit of me time.
I just going to use it to be productive.
But yeah, I'll show you a bit more about it later.
But now, I think I'm gonna try
and get the boys to trampolining.
(happy acoustic music)
So we're all finished with trampolining now.
The boys had so much fun and they are sweating.
Then had a slushie.
But now we're going to race home
because Jackson should be back from nursery now.
Matt has picked him up, so we're desperate to see him.
Even Fraser's like, "I wanna see Jack soon".
Look who's home.
When we got home, I was so excited to see him
and he was having a nap.
He literally zonked out after his hour at nursery.
But he seemed happy.
Did you have fun?
(Jackson cooing)
A little clingy.
(happy acoustic music)
It's football time and I'm gonna win.
- Don't listen to her, I'll win.
(happy acoustic music)
- Hey Caleb
- [Emily] You say, "Hey Caleb"
- Cheerios
- [Emily] You got your cheerios?
You say I'm getting good at striking?
- Yeah
(thump)
- [Emily] Yay
(happy acoustic music)
I wanted to show you something
that keeps Jackson entertained for ages.
It's so simple and I worked it out on a plane.
Hello
So we've set up our den ready to watch Nick Jr.
(TV theme song playing)
- [Boy] That's true
- [Mom] They're all robots
- [Boy] Yeah
- Alright, so it's a bit later on now
and I've just cozied the boys up
in their little den that we made.
They've got blankets, pillows, snacks and everything.
And they're watching the brand new
"Blaze and the Monster Machines".
One, it's a robot one that they haven't seen before.
While they're doing that and I know that they're happy,
I'm gonna get on with a really quick speed clean.
I have laundry to fold.
I need to just clean up all the stuff from today.
I also forgot to mention earlier that Nick Jr.
and Channel Mum would love for you guys
to get involved as well.
So if your kids take part in Mission Monday
and they watch Nick Jr. From 4 p.m.
and you end up getting some stuff done,
use the hashtag #MissionMonday
and we'll all be able to see that.
But I better get on with it.
(upbeat drum music)
Alright so I got some jobs done
and you watched the new Blaze.
What did you think?
- Good.
It bout them turning into
Blaze and his friends turning into,
no, not his friends,
you didn't actually see his friends.
He turned into a monster
I mean - Hee lo
- He turned into a,
what you call?...
- He's waving
- A robot.
- [Emily] Mmmm
Somebody's bedtime
You say "nite nite", Jax.
Nite nite
(soft relaxing music)
Alright, so the two little ones are in bed now,
so it's just me and Fraser.
We are now gonna play a guessing game
that we have got really into playing together.
We're gonna go and do that,
but I think we'll sign off here
and say thank you so much for watching this video.
And don't forget to join in every Monday
from 4 p.m. on Nick Jr. for Mission Mondays.
I will, of course, put all the links
in the description down below,
and I'll see you in my next one.
Bye guys
- Good night
