The art of getting my own way!

My week beginning 9th July 2018

Monday

What kind of adults buy a pool that looks like a boat, but isn’t actually a boat?! After donning my perfect captain’s outfit and pulling the best poses in my “boat”, I still couldn’t sail away. Disappointing adults!

Tuesday

Saw some bigger girls playing football today. Walked straight up to them to introduce myself and join in. They kept kicking the ball to me. I don’t know why everyone is so obsessed with this World Cup malarkey, it’s not like playing football is hard. All you do is smile at people and they pass you the ball. Easy!

I had my first Continue reading “The art of getting my own way!”

You know your life has a new meaning when you ride a unicorn!

Monday

It’s official, I’m a star! Today I hit 1,000 followers on Instagram and apparently this is pretty cool. I’d like to thank each and every one of my followers for their support and appreciation of my cheeky attempts to push my adults over the edge. I’d also like to thank my adults for their inability to keep a straight face when I do something “wicked” and for always picking up my food from the floor. I thank my cats; Precious for letting me cuddle her and randomly pull her tail and Belle for keeping her distance and allowing me to remain in charge of the house. Cheers to the next 1,000 of you legends!

Tuesday

Tried out my best stunt man skills today at playgroup. I saw my friend Arthur was just about to go down the water slide so I walked up and stood still at the bottom. In perfect timing, down he came straight into my legs. I ended up laying on top of him and we created a sandwich. It was so awesome that I cried with excitement!

Wednesday

Found a new challenge today – Continue reading “You know your life has a new meaning when you ride a unicorn!”

Channelling my inner artist with the use of yoghurt!

My week beginning 25th June 2018

Monday

Mummy has got me this new chunky knit blanket and a cushion to match.  Well she said it was a cushion, but Daddy confused me when she came downstairs and he told her that I “love playing with that new yellow ball”.  Mummy was not impressed and ruined my fun!

Tuesday

Mummy took me to the country park today to meet my Instagram friend Arthur for the first time.  He’s so cool and he has amazing hair. He’s my new role model. I hope that when I grow up I will have hair as amazing as his.

Wednesday

Best. Day. Ever!!! I found a stray Continue reading “Channelling my inner artist with the use of yoghurt!”

Deckchairs: what’s yours is mine and what’s mine is mine!

My week beginning 18th June 2018

Monday

It’s Monday. It’s England’s first game of the World Cup. Daddy and I are having a boys’ night in watching the footy. Mummy is going out shopping to run some errands. Good job really, she probably doesn’t understand the offside rule and I’m not going to explain that one to her now!

Tuesday

Mummy and I went to hang out with my friends today at playgroup. She put me in the swing and pushed me, I’m glad she knows her place. After a while she tried to take me out so I showed her my disgust by having a tantrum. She found it funny. Yes woman, at the moment it may be funny and cute, but let’s see how you feel about it in six months time! 👍🏼

The flowers are my friends

My week beginning the 11th June 2018

Monday

Today is Mummy’s 30th Birthday. To celebrate Daddy took us down to the Harbourside for dinner and a walk together. I thought I’d use every opportunity I could to remind Mummy of how old she is by getting her to chase me about. She soon felt those 30 year old muscles ache!

Tuesday

Mummy and I went to one of our favourite places today, Old Down Country Park. On the way in I met Fred the parrot in the cafe. I devised a plan with him Continue reading “The flowers are my friends”

A mother’s pride

It’s true that when you enter motherhood, your emotions are multiplied.

All of a sudden you find yourself with more capacity for love, compassion, empathy, trust, patience, understanding, hope, sympathy, remorse, happiness, endearment ……. the list is endless. A lot of these you have expected to grow. Whilst you were pregnant you may have imagined how much extra 6BA35F1A-14BD-4AC2-9AE3-2E25982491C4love your baby would bring to your heart or how patient you would need to be etc.

For me, the growth of pride was an unexpected one. I don’t know if it’s because Continue reading “A mother’s pride”

Yay for magic rainbow flowers!

My week beginning 28th May 2018

Monday

I was actually super impressed by my adults today. They took me to soft play, but not your usual soft play…… it was a baby rave! Soft play, disco lights and music…. Continue reading “Yay for magic rainbow flowers!”
