As soon as they hit nursery and primary school the time flies, it feels like yesterday that I was taking her to her nursery school, she leaves in September for secondary.


The time is already flying by for me, it feels like he should still be a couple of months old, not almost 2 years old. Yesterday I was looking at photos of him from exactly a year ago and he looks completely different. It’s terrifying how much he has changed just over the course of one year.


Do you weep when you look at photos of him as a baby? I was doing it yesterday, cannot believe its getting close to a year, its terrifying.

We tend to just let her get on with it, we sort of figure if you react to it they know it works so keep doing it.


One of his favourite things to tantrum about is pressing the toilet flush button. If I go for a piss and dare to flush the toilet myself, then he loses his mind. It’s doubly annoying because he can’t manage to press the button and flush it by himself anyway, so I have to pretend that he is flushing it, while actually it is me pressing it.

JUST LET ME PISS IN PEACE!!


:lol:


Had to sit him on my lap the other day while i was having a gooseberry fool. He wails if i close the door, if i pull it to he opens it and pulls on my legs, so it strawberry floating kills as he pulls my leg hair. So I had to pick him up ffs. :x


I just leave bug to moan, she can strawberry float right off if she thinks I'll have her in there while I'm trying to have a dump or whatever, the wife lets her in and then bitches about it, is the same for shows she lets her in there and moans whereas I leave her to get on with moaning.

I do that sometimes, but i was downstairs on my own, and im very aware he goes climbing when im not looking, he has smashed his face so many times, which im sure will continue as he learns to walk :roll:

To get to the bathroom, you have to go through our main bedroom. When I go for a gooseberry fool, I wedge the bedroom door shut and leave him in the living room with his mum. He can’t get through the bedroom door and I have peace and quiet. 8-)

I am not a very weepy person, so no. But it is sad to think that he is no longer a baby and soon will be a proper little boy.

It’s wonderful when they start walking and talking, but it’s also depressing that they are no longer your little baby. :cry:

I like that moo isn't a baby any more, babies are dull and mostly annoying. She is now fun and entertaining and still a bit annoying.

Have any of you ever gone through a car wash with your kid in the back of the car?

God knows what happened, but my car was covered in thick dust yesterday and so I decided it was time for it to be cleaned for the first time ever. Putting my lad in the back, we went out for the day visiting grandparents and then I stopped at an automatic car wash. I figured he’d find it fun, but I was terribly mistaken. I have never seen him that scared before, his tears were flowing and he wouldn’t let go of my hand. :lol: :wub:

He was fine afterwards, but I’ll never forget the look of horror in his eyes as the rollers started brushing over the windscreen. :lol:

I was unsure about doing it cos I have heard horror stories of kids who hate it and have meltdowns and you have nowhere to go. Thankfully booboo had no problem and Ive been through it a couple of times with her, she just points at the rollers and laughs the whole time then says "alllll done" when it finishes. :wub:

So my kid is just a pussy. When I see him tonight I will tell him that he is a disgrace, I am ashamed of him and that Rax's little girl is more of a man than he'll ever be. :x ;)

Its nice reading everyones kid related stories, mine is 15 actually 16 in a few weeks time , shes currently gearing up for her GCSE's and it feels weird, I can remember sitting mine still. I enjoyed her being a little kid but I really like where she is at now, we play video games together, go to the cinema together and a lot of the time shes more like a buddy. I guess mine is a weird circumstance though as I raised her myself as a single parent for a lot of it.

That’s awesome that you have such a close relationship. I worry that one day I am going to be the embarrassing parent that he doesn’t want to be seen with, so it is nice that there is a (small ;) ) chance that he will still like me when he is a teenager.

And if he doesn’t like me, then I will put him back through the car wash. :nod:

Thats a good idea now you know the car wash works you can torture him with it lol

I am the embarrasing Parent, at her last parents evening she kept telling me to grow up while I informed her that one of the teachers sat there looked like a melting waxwork of peter capaldi and talked about the fact her young History teacher had a lazy eye. I also spent one school announcement evening playing angry birds lol

Trust me when they get older and responsible its your time to chill out and stop giving a rats arse ;)

Moggy, our lad is terrified of the shower, probably because when he had gastric flu, we dunked him under it to wash him off, the look of utter terror on his face when he spots it is priceless.

My daughter was scared of the shower... till I found out it was because her face would get wet, which she hated. She still prefers baths now.
