The Mock Turtle

Eye flowers is the cutest thing ever.

So cute!

Eye flowers!

Tupac has finally realised nearly 18 months after going into a proper bed, that he can actually get out of it himself

I was woken this morning to him opening his bedroom door (which has a gate across it anyway, so no luck pal :cheer up: ) shouting smugly “haha! Haha! I can get out of my bed!”

TD just lost his temper with me (for reasons unrelated to my memory) and shouted, "You...you...you...ABSENT MINDED FOOL!" I can't even defend myself, tbf; I totally am.

Lora!

We’ve been playing Hamilton to death and the boys are singing along but thankfully haven’t picked up all the swears.

M even commented that calling Hamilton’s mum a horror wasn’t very kind. The line is ‘son of a whore’.

I love this!

A recently waved her Dad off to work with "Bye! See you this evening! Don't do anything silly!" which is good advice to him.

S (4) sat down on the sofa and said 'Ahhh a piece of quiet'.

A piece of quiet I love that.

Oh, I'd love a piece of quiet!!!

I'm going to introduce it as a family saying!

I love a piece of quiet.

Every night I sing ‘You Are My Sunshine’ to S when I tuck him in and he usually sings along. Instead of the line ‘you’ll never know dear, how much I love you’ he innocently sings ‘You never notice how much I love you’ Mum guilt!

Oh, Sam!

Piece of quiet is amazing

Tupac is very excited about his upcoming birthday, however he is literally telling any stranger he can come across about getting a white police car for his birthday

“Hello! Hello! Excuse me! When it’s my birthday the delilely lady is bringing me a white police car! It’s not my birthday yet though!”

Obviously I have purchased him pretty much every vehicle going but there is not a white police car amongst them, he’s quite insistent and I don’t want to crush his little birthday dreams so I’ve had to furiously google and get a big one and small one as he can’t tell me consistently what his imaginary police car is like.

Wait until the day before his birthday when it suddenly becomes a blue police car

He said briefly yesterday it was black and I was like NO YOU MEAN WHITE RIGHT?

H has taken to trying to cross his arms when cross or trying to make an emphatic point. Like “No! I not goin’ bed!” *crosses arms furiously *. Except he can’t quite manage it, so he looks like he’s trying to hug himself. Or like a very tiny gangsta rap stereotype.

Starry! Tupac does that too, massive over dramatic hugs of himself, bottom lip out, and says ITS NOT FUNNY I AM VERY ANGREEEE!

A piece of quiet is amazing.

Pic, I'm glad you managed to find a white police car for him.

Reminds me of when H was little and I'd already wrapped all her presents for Christmas and then on Christmas Eve someone asked her what she'd asked Santa for and she said 'a yo yo'.
She had never mentioned a yo yo before!
