So, older boy was on his potty doing a wee. He was just watching it (if you have boys, or you are a boy you'll understand why he was looking) when he said

Ahhhh!

Older Boy is on a roll with embarrassing us recently. This past weekend he did two biggies

First, on a tip to Tesco he went for a toilet trip with Daddy and this happened

Second, we'd gone on a trip to the doctor for his pre-school jabs when a 30+ stone man walked through. And Older boy did this

Just hoping he's done for a bit now. Not sure we can take any more!! 

Running

We went for a nice walk in the sun today. When we were walking home the lovely sunshine had gone a bit to Older Boy's head and he was running up the pavement in front of us

As we didn't want him to run off we shouted him back and his response was...

Equally not as helpful we shouted him back. Only this time he had a cunning plan to get back at us

Doing his best slow motion running impression behind us we couldn't help but laugh at his ingenuity

Apple of my eye

Do you ever look at your children and think 'How did I create that'?

I don't mean in this sort of way

I mean in more this kind of way

The Phone

First I wanted to say "Hi" I haven't vanished, life is just getting away with me and I've been really busy. I've got loads to blog about but it's just finding the time to do it! I could do with about 4 more hours in every day.

So...to the blog post

Older boy loves talking on the phone. He has recently taken it upon himself to answer the phone before I get to it and chatting to anyone on the other end. A few times it has actually been someone important which is a bit embarrassing, but the people on the other end have always been OK with it.

So recently...he did this...

Girl friend

Older boy has a girlfriend. He talks about her quite a bit

Last week was the end of term Easter fair. I saw them together. They were like this

Yes they are 3. Yes there was quite a lot of kissing

So I asked him when we got home what he liked so much about her

Match made in Heaven!!

Nappy washing day

Picture the scene. It's nappy washing day and everything is going well. Younger one is in a fresh clean nappy, the weather is perfect of drying and they are all in the washing machine.

Everything is going well when one of 3 things happens. I mean ALWAYS happens..

Number 1

I forget one nappy which is wet and smelly and has to wait another 2/3 days to get washed

Number 2

It starts raining. As any cloth nappy user will know, it's hard getting nappies dry inside when your heating isn't on

And at number 3

The poop-splosion. Obviously the youngest ones favourite. And a poop-splosion will ALWAYS happen just as you have turned the washing machine on, so again it has to wait another 2/3 days to get washed

If I'm feeling really unlucky then all three will happen but I'm guaranteed that one of them will
