Today my husband had an open training where fans were allowed to come and watch the club train. This also means that the families of the players can watch their husband, fiancés, dads and boyfriends train and see what they do, it's currently 6am when I feel the bed lift telling me Charlie gotten out of bed to go for a run or to do a workout. We used to workout together but I just had Blair, our daughter a year ago. My body is still adjusting and I'll go for walks and exercise when I can when she isn't awake.

I heard Charlie go through the walk-in wardrobe to find his workout gear. Once he was dressed walked in the bathroom to get ready for his workout. Once he came out of the bathroom Charlie walked over to me and kneeled down to place a delicate kiss on my forehead.
'I'll be back in an hour love' he says quietly.
'Be safe,' I say leaning up for a kiss. Charlie complies and we both share a kiss before he leaves. I try to go back to sleep, but without Charlie's warm I can't fall back to asleep. So I decide to start my day extra early, I head over to have a shower to wash away my sleep.

After my shower, getting dressed and putting on my skincare and makeup I head into the main living area of our house. I looked around and notice how much of a mess there is. I haven't been feeling well recently, neither has Blair so I've been mainly looking after her. I haven't really had time to clean up, I've been to busy looking after her. Blair's toys are everywhere and there is a massive pile of dishes in the sink from nights ago. Without Charlie this house would've looked like an explosion just took place. I look at the time and smile at the fact there will be 35 minutes until Charlie gets home. And. It'll be an hour till Blair wakes up, I have peace to myself.
I placed my EarPods in my ear, not that loud so I could hear the baby monitor. I was finally going to clean up this big mess. I placed all of Blair's toys away, placed all of the dishes in the dishwasher, wiped down the beach and vacuumed the living area. I took out my EarPods and smiled at myself for cleaning up the mess that I'd been dreading to do.

5 minutes later I hear noise from the bay monitor, someone's up early. I walk in the nursery and see Blair in her cot with the cheekiest smile plastered on her face. She is babbling something to herself probably wondering why I'm up so early. She is so cute.
'Hi angel did you have a good sleep' I say picking her up and placing her on my hop while she is still babbling. As we enter the kitchen we hear the door handle open.
'You are such a smart girl baby, you woke up so you could see your daddy' I coo to her.
The door open and we are immediately met with a hot and sweaty Charlie.
'Good morning my beautiful girls' he says coming toward us.
'Ewww daddy is sticky' I giggle which earns laughter coming from both of their mouths.
'Okay I'll go and have a shower, but I'll be waiting for my kisses and hugs when I get out' Charlie says as he heads to our master bedroom. 

When Charlie leaves I look at the time and realise we only have an hour to get ready before heading to the club.
'Let's get ready angel's say to Blair as I tickle her side causing the most adorable giggle placed on her face. I placed Blair in some cute grey pants with a Carlton jumper with Charlie's number on the back with the word 'daddy' on the back. She looks so adorable. Once Blair was reading I placed her down in the living room and placed her favourite tv show on.
I was liking my outfit for the day. I was wearing some mom blue jeans, with a plain white t-shirt, the Carlton scarf with Charlie's badges placed all over it, my Dior saddle bag and my new balance shoes.

My thoughts were interrupted when I felt two strong arms wrap around my waist and a head being buried in my neck leaving tiny kisses.
'You okay love, you seems stressed' Charlie asked softly.
'I'm not stressed, we'll I am, but that's no bothering me'
'What's bothering you the love, you know you can always tell me anything' Charlie says while placing kissing down to my collar bones.
'I just feel like I'm not being a good wife to you at the moment. You've been doing everything at the moment, the cooking, the cleaning, looking after Blair and talking care of me. It's not fair to you. You have such a demanding job and after her busy days you've been caring for me and Blair' I say, it feels like a boulders been lifted off my best after saying that.
'No love you haven't. You've been sick, everyone gets sick. You and Blair have both been sick and with having a sick baby it takes a bigger toll on you as well. Everyone deserves some time off when they feel sick, please don't blame yourself love' he says as he places a loving kiss to my lips.
'I love you so much Charlie' I say softly after the kiss.

A couple minutes later we are in the car backing out of the driveway and making our way to the oval. When we arrive we go straight inside and meet up with the other families and then the boys head out on the field. All of the wives and the girlfriends sit sit alongside the oval with all of the kids.
After an hour and a half of training and drills, I see a group of the boys coming over to see their loved ones. I feel Blair squirm in my arms and place the strawberries he had in her arms down. She places her arms out ready for her dad to pick her up, so I thought. As soon as Blair saw Sam Walsh she immediately went crazy, she was babbling like crazy. When Sam places her in his arms he immediately attaches to him and has the biggest grin on her face.
Me and all of the wives and girlfriends burst out in a fit laughter.

'Not funny' my husband says with a look of hurt on this face which makes me laugh more.
I look at Blair and point to Charlie.
'Look Blair, it's dada'
'Dadaaaa' she yells wiggling out of Sam's arms and gently being placed in her dad's arms.
'Look at my cuties' I say walking over to them.
'Mama' Blair says cutely
'hello little miss' I say back

We all over and hear Voss yell 'One quick practise match before you can head home'
'I'll be back soon' Charlie says kissing the top of Blair's head and then kissing me lips, Charlie then places Blair in my arms before jogging off with the rest of his team mates. Blair starts to cry realising she isn't with her daddy anymore.
'Come on angel, daddy will be back soon. I promise' I say to her, buts it not working.
'I'm going to go to the playroom and see if that settles her' I say to Mon, she nods wishing me good luck.

One of the things I like best about Carlton Football Club is how family oriented they are. They have a room dedicated to the children of the players, where there are toys, a climbing frame, a tv and a crib.
It's been about 20 minutes of me trying to calm down Blair and I have officially given up. I have my head in my hands praying she will calm down. After 5 minutes I don't hear a noise, which is strange. I look around and see Blair is gone. I've just lost my child.
'BLAIR WHERE ARE YOU, COME TO MOMMY' I say with a loud voice praying she isn't far. I turn around and I let go a sigh of relief as I see my daughter in Charlie's arms.
'oh my god, you scared me for a second angel' I say letting my nerves settle.
'You okay love' Charlie asks
'I'm okay, I'm just exhausted'
'Let's go home' he says holding his hand out for me. I take his hand and we make our way to the car.
We all get in the car and head off home. The lady thing I remember was the lights of the buildings pasting me before I fell asleep. I wake up and feel strong arms holding me and carrying me. I open my eyes tiredly and see that Charlie is carrying me into the house bridal style. He looks down at me and misses my forehead before placing me down onto our bed sheets, then covering me with blankets.
'Get some rest love. I'll cook diner and get Blair ready for bed'
'What did I do to deserve you Charlie, I love you' I say. I can't believe I call this man my husband.
'I say the same thing about you love, I love you. Get some sleep' He says kissing me before walking out and turning off the living.
