Love sick
Filed in Daily life, Ivy - girl, too cute, July 16, 2008, 4:46 pmShe wanders out to the kitchen, a look of urgency on her face.
“You take me” she directs,
“you take me to the hospital”.
“Why?” I ask.
She rushes down the hallway and I follow. She has picked up her Dorothy the Dinosaur handbag and starts to pack it.
A plastic mobile phone, a pair of undies (important when you […]
Thomas the Tankshun
Filed in The Boy, toddlerhood, too cute, July 6, 2008, 6:14 pmLet me start by saying that Noah has never seen a single five minute episode of “Thomas the Tank Engine”.
Never.
Not one DVD
and has never placed his hands on someone else’s models or tracks.
That is why I am amazed that he has told anyone who will listen (including his ride - in car ‘Rocket) that for […]

Get into her ribbon stash (that another chef has neglected to pack away) and pull Every. Single. Ribbon from its roll and call it ‘pasta’.
Take scrapbooking cardboard flowers (hundreds of the little suckers) from the back room, sprinkle a few into the ‘bowl’ you have aquired from the […]
In Noah’s world.
Filed in Daily life, The Boy, too cute, May 24, 2008, 9:24 amThe boy’s nose is running and his eyes are red and scratchy.
He comes into our room and snuggles down.
He cups my face and says… ” You kiss it better, Mummy”.
“Awwww”, I soothe, “Do you have a cold?”
He considers this for a minute, considers his surroundings and the fact that he is snuggled up in the […]
It’s hard to be angry when…
Filed in Daily life, Love, The Boy, toddlerhood, too cute, too funny, May 16, 2008, 11:19 amHe climbs onto the bed, looking for me to read him a book but then changes direction when he discovers his father is home.
I put my hands out to him but he refuses…
“No, Mummy, you not read the book, Daddy read it”.
David and I have been having a ‘heated discussion’, so this obvious favouritism erks […]

Car by association.
Filed in Daily life, The Boy, toddlerhood, too cute, April 22, 2008, 8:11 amNoah loves cars.
Loves them.
He is, quite simply, a car head.
Like his father - who can identify the type of car at night by the shape of the headlights. (Scary but true).
Noah identifies each and every person by the kind of car they drive and addresses them accordingly…
He doesn’t know the type (yet) but he has named […]

Immy: “No, don’t do that Noah, that hurts Immy.”
Noah: ” No”
Immy: “I won’t play with you if you are going to do that”.
Noah: (increasingly angrier) “NO”!
Immy: “Oh well, I will just have to…”
Noah (interjecting and pointing to Immy) : […]
…and then there was Monday night.
Filed in Uncategorized, toddlerhood, too cute, too funny, February 28, 2008, 9:11 amThey are restless again.
This can’t be good. It is cracking on to 9pm. Why are they still awake?
There has been no red cordial. There has been plenty of quiet time pre - bed. We have followed the bed time routine to the letter but for the second time they have not gone straight to sleep.
9:30pm.
C’mon, […]
