Hi All

I've been working for 8 months now and had some great tips from mums on how to fit everything in. I've listed a few below, super keen to hear any others that you use to save time, money or just make life run a little bit easy.

1) buy all the socks the same for each person so they're super easy to pair up and no one is ever stuck looking for socks. THere is an initial expense here but its worth it.
2)Buy big garbage bags, start at one end of the house and pick up everything that needs to go out in one big swoop, bathroom bin, wastepaper, nappy bin, kitchen waste etc, and throw it straight in the bin.
3)As soon as you get home, off come the outside shoes which stay at the front door, same with bags, coats so you don't do the stressed morning search.
4) freeze extra meals (and remember to use them on days that you have to cook, not just on weekends, or to save hubby from cooking)
5) run a family calendar (we use outlook) and put all your dates, exercise, social activities in it. By using outlook you can send invitations home from work.

Love to hear everyones ideas.
