I think he likes his bubblebaths...

As soon as I got out of the shower this morning Kane started throwing things around the bathroom. Took me a few minutes to work out what he was doing :) He hunted out and threw his bubblebath bottle in the tub then climbed in after it. He spent several fustrated minutes trying to jam one of his bath toys in the drain. It didn't take him long to find the plug and put that there, then happily tried to turn the taps on! I managed to get dressed and grab the camera in time to catch him trying to empty my shampoo down the drain!!

Opps sprung!!

Wasn't me mummy...

Aww shucks

I can't stay annoyed at my little angel for long, just not possible

He wouldn't go back to bed after his boob and was playing with the dog until he tired out again. I had a flurry of footsteps behind me and a tug on my top "mum mum mum up up up up up!!" (his new word is up). So I picked him up and put him on my knee - expecting him to start trying to pry keys off my keyboard as usual. He stood on my knee, grabbed my ears with his chubby little hands, grinned and gave me a big sloppy kiss, then slid straight off my lap again and took off after the dog!

aawwwwww ~big pool of gooey mummy mess~

My god he is my boy!

I discovered this morning at the park that Kane believes tube slides are different to normal slides. As far as he is concerned, you don't sit down nicely and slide down a tube slide.... you wait until you can see mummy's face in the hole at the bottom, giggle, then throw yourself face first down the slide and hope mummy is quick enough to catch you at the bottom before you hit the ground... I am going grey

RIP Mrs Smith

You will be sadly missed by a lot of people. It is a shame Kane and I didn't get the chance to visit you again before you moved, but at least you got up north for a little while :)

Rest well

Stormy nights

Kane doesn't like the weather we have been having lately. Unfortunately when there is a storm, it is his side of the house that gets hit. His room is the noisiest in the house. So when it gets really bad, mum doesn't get much sleep because a little wiggly bug comes and joins her in her bed. A little squirmy worm wriggles and tugs and kicks and shoves until mummy is in the position HE is happy with to sleep in.

Last night when the hail hit it was face to face, forehead to forehead, noses touching with his thumb in his mouth and his pinkie in mum's. Poor sleep deprived mummy had to stay like that until he fell asleep or the little terror would burst my eardrums!!

Pressie from Canada

A lovely big parcel from Thunder Bay arrived on Tuesday. Lots of fabric for me to make my bridesmaid dress and a lovely canadian winter weight snowsuit for Kane. It is a bit big on him yet, but should be just about right next winter:

The overalls have reallllllllyyyy long legs though. At the moment, if I stand them up, they are the same height as Kane!

The busy little whirlwind had a big decision to make this morning... Do I finish brushing my hair, throw the ball for the dog or climb on mummy because she is lying on the floor?


P.S. If you know me and are lovely enough to leave a comment, please put your initials on it :) I like to know who is keeping an eye on us!

Kane has a new trick

The babysitter told me all about his new trick when I got home - apparently he has worked out how to gargle his milk! He also took great pleasure in showing me how he could unzip and rezip her purse....Was a little fustrated that her purse was too big for him to be able to sling over his shoulder like he does with my dress purse.

My boy likes handbags....:)

The perils of having....

a boy who can climb:

Aunty J was lucky

Had a visit with the eminently beautiful Aunty J. She came around and had a cuppa and a chat. Kane was tearing around the house as usual, waaaaaayyyy overdue for a nap but not slowing down. He had a little dance to an ad jingle on the tv (for dance read: turned in circles on the spot) then fell over and had a little whinge :) Easy fixed, scoop him up and put him to bed for a nap'leaving us to have a good chin wag.

He didnt sleep (not that I was expecting him too) but had some quiet time, and chatted to himself. When we grabbed him a few minutes later, he had taken off his pants and thrown them across the room. Aunty picked him up and had a cuddle and his-lordship imperiously thrust out his leg for servant mummy to put his pants back on him.

Now Aunty spent most of the next 15mins before she left with Kane on her hip (lotsa cuddles). Less than a minute after she handed him off to me so she could go, I started feeling all warm and wet.... yup, we had interrupted him in the process of taking his nappy off too, and a wee little winkie was sticking out the side of his nappy.......

I hope Aunty J got home ok, that she didn't drive up the back of somebody in another fit of giggles.....

G'day g'day

Right, new blog. Give me a few posts to get into the "feel"of this one.

A blog set up purely to share the exploits and tantrums of my little angel:



For example: a story of a bathtime.... "No mum I am having way too much fun climbing around on the couch for you to get me dressed for bed"

"Ooooh hang about, whats this then?"
