it's monday. i personally slept ok but i kept mom and dad up most of the night. i was sleep crawling and kept banging my head against the bed. oh well. dad is gone for the day on a business trip.
all morning mom was on my case to take a nap. i thought it was just because she was up all night. but really she and gram had a super adventure planned for me. no morning nap for me. i had an early lunch and that made me pretty sleepy. when i woke up, i was in the car with gram, grandad and mom. they took me to this place called- monkey forest. it was awesome! basically a bunch of barbary macaques roam around. free range monkeys! they were so close. mom says dealing with monkeys is like dealing with gypies. as long as they stay an arm length away, you won't lose your wallet, camera or apple. i had loads of fun.
got home and mom made me soup with croûtons. i ate it all. we are going to play for awhile and watch duran duran videos. i might have stories with gram.
mom found a dried up boogie on blankie. she has ordered him to be washed. oh manz.

got up this morning at my usual 6am. mom informed me that there was a time shift during the night and it was really 7am. oh man.
mom made me breakfast and i ate it all. going to spend some time playing. looks nice out. might talk gram into a trip to the park later.
headed to bed. today turned out really nice. mom fed me a huge lunch. the weather was great. mom, gram and dad all took me out. we went to this place kedleston hall. dad pushed me around the grounds. we saw sheep and trees.
after our fresh air we stopped at subway for snacks. grandad was there, what the heck? he stopped in for snacks too. got home and had some play time with gram. dad helped me have a splash in the bath. i love my bubbles. going to have some quiet time with mom and then sleep.

another day another dollar. same old same old gram and grandad both had to work all day. i spent the day hanging out with mom. we played and ate things. dad popped in to visit now and then.
watched twister and charlie and the chocolate factory. mom says- a movie with johnny depp and chocolate. how can you go wrong? sat at the table while the big people ate curry. mom let me try a curried potato and pea. i also got a bit of nana bread. oh good stuff. going to watch ghost whispererer with mom and then head to bed. bed ways is right ways.

i slept a real long time yesterday. gram and grandad took me out for an adventure and we were gone ages. we didn't even come home until after bedtime. i gave mom a hard time about going to sleep because i was so excited. but i fell asleep and when i got up it was morning time.
mom fed me breakfast. she made me baby rice since i don't like that banannana wake up crap. ate my breakfast, no problem. mom and i spent the morning playing. everyone else was asleep. it was fun. supposed to go out later with mom and dad. we're going to practice our food gathering skills.

hey, look at that, two new teeth. where did they come from? now i have four on top and four on the bottom.
ok sleep. got mom up at 2am again. i had some warm milk and fell asleep watching king of the hill. got mom up again at 5.30am.
mom made me the usual mush. i wasn't interested. after much fussing and complaining, mom got the food in my tummy. gram got up early so i spent some time hanging out with her. i started to give gram a hard time about things and mom came in to straighten me out. oh man. gram went off to make tasty things for us to eat and i got stuck playing with mom.
had a nap and when i got up it was time for food. ate a super yummy thing i had yesterday- chicken, carrots, onions. who knows what else is in there but damn it tastes good. ate my fruity pot too. didn't give mom any trouble over lunch.
mom says that she will get me dressed while gram and grandad do things they need to do. when everything is done, the three of us can go on an adventure. whooo-hooo.

another night of ok sleeping. got mom up at 2am. she got me some warm milk. i hung out for a bit with her and dad watching father ted.(father ted had to kick the bishop in the butty.) it was pretty funny. drank my milk and mom changed my diaper. it was full of peepees.
got up at 6.30am in a pretty good mood. i had a play while mom got my food together. i ate my mush- blah, i'm not feeling it. had my banannana rounds.
mom and i played. gram invited me out to help her shop. cool. time with gram is always a good time.
almost time for bed. had an interesting afternoon. gave mom a hard time about everything. i wouldn't take my nap and i was difficult during dinner. i was so bad mom almost made me stay home from grandad's party.
we all got together and went to the restaurant to have grandad's party. we were there for a long time and nothing happened. finally mom got up and yelled at a bunch of people. we went back home and some chinese guy brought us eats. mom didn't yell at him.

slept ok. got mom up at 2.30am. watched a little tv and drank my warm milk. i was asleep again by 3am. so can't complain too much about that.
started the day at 6am. mom made me mush and i ate some banannana rounds. gave gram some kisses before she left for work. other than that, just been playing with mom. we sand a few songs. i had a little nap.
mom fed me a big yummy lunch. i ate it all. afterwards she got me dressed up warm and grandad took me out for a walk. we went to visit gram at work. she was super busy so we left and did other things.
got home just in time for dinner. mom made me soup with croûtons, delicious. gram got home from work and mom said i would play with her. gram and i are going to have a few laughs before bed.

so yesterday was easter and grandad's birthday. auntie pasty, uncle tom and auntie amy all came over. i was a pretty good boy. mom said that i could have cake. mmmmm cake. it was good. cake cake cake.
i stayed up really late. i woke mom up at 11.pm. she sent dad in to hang out with me while she got my bottle. she came back with my warm milk. i drank it down and slept most of the night. mom had to get up a few times to turn me around but i slept through that.
got up at 6.30am. mom took me downstairs. i sat and played while she got breakfast ready. ate my much and banannana rounds after breakfast i wiggled and caused trouble. so good day so far.
almost time for bed. gram and grandad took me to a park. it was super cold but mom dressed me up warm. i was ducks, boats and dogs. we had a picnic by the water. i had a nice time.

it's grandad's birthday today. happy birthday grandad.

another night of keeping mom up. finally she got me a bottle. i drank my warm milk and didn't get up until 6am.
mom and i went downstairs. she opened the blinds and what did we see? snow. there's so much snow roads are closed in part of the country and police are telling people to stay inside.
mom has been boring me with her wild stories again. she's been banging on about that jeebus guy. something about how today is easter sunday. jeebus was bored with being dead so he rose up and went around scaring people as the zombie jeebus. 'if you strike me down i will only come back more powerful that you can ever imagine.'
i want to hear more about this easter bunny character and the money egg. my dad eats eggs all the time but i've never seen money come out of one.
mom has also informed me that dana bunny and g-dad are planning on coming over again. fun for me.

got mom up a bunch of times. she was not too happy with that. she wasn't feeling so well. we went downstairs. we watched wonder woman and i had some warm milk. we went back to sleep before the sun got up.
slept in until 7am. mom fed me breakfast and then turned me over to gram. mom went off on one of her adventures. gram and i waved and she got on the bus.
spent the day doing stuff with gram. we had fun. the only bad part of the day was when i shut my probe in the door- ouchie. noting broken.
auntie amy came over for a visit. i had a splash in the bath. mom got home just in time to see me before bed. ok day then.

note to self: don't ask mom too many questions or you'll end up with a never ending lecture.
this morning she told me it was good friday. what's so good about this friday? is it going to be better than last friday? then i got a long boring story about jeebus.
jeebus was the son of god even though his mom and dad were called mary and joseph. (what's god doing knocking up another man's wife? i'm sure that is an episode of maury.) jeebus goes around saying things that some poeple like but other people don't. one of jeebus's friends rats him out to the cops. another friend denies knowing him. jeebus? who's jeebus? i don't know any jeebus? so jeebus gets busted by the cops and he's got to drag this big heavy cross around town and up a huge hill. then the cops nail him to the cross. he gets poked in the side with a stick and eventually dies.
uummm, ok. doesn't sound like friday was such a good day for jeebus. i hope my day goes a little better than that.
mom says that jeebus died for our sins- like eating meat on friday during lent.
i had another day full of fun and adventure. mom didn't come because she was doing taxes. she totally missed out. gram, grandad and i went to see steam trains. i had fun. steam trains! choo-choots.

not much to report about my day. got mom up at 5.30. she fed me some mush and my banannana rounds.
we played, played, and played some more. i made some poppies, two batches this morning.
gram got up. she invited me to go out and help with the chores. so mom got me dressed up nice and warm and out we went. gram and i did stuff on the list and then snuck off to the park.
got home just in time for lunch. i ate everything in sight. mom and gram talked and they decided to brave the weather and head out to the store. so i got all bundled up again and the three of us went to sainsburys. i fell asleep. i woke up in the hallway of the house, so i guess the shopping trip went ok.
got up and had my dinner. i ate loads. there was an incident during clean up. gram set the water bowl down a little close to my busy fingers. and then there was mess and water went everywhere.
and that's pretty much been my day. going to wiggle a bit and get ready for bed.

i'm driving the bus but i don't know where i'm going.
me against the peep.

mom says i am free to pack my bindle and leave any time i like since i think i'm such a big boy.
oh my god. i had a super fun day made of awesome.
i got mom up at 5.30am. she took me downstairs so my singing wouldn't wake dad up. i wiggled a bit until mom said it was time for breakfast. i had that weird banannana morning wake up stuff and my banannana rounds. i do enjoy those. it's fun to try and pick them up. my fingers get sticky and then i rub my hair.
spent the morning rolling around on the floor with mom. we played and sang some songs.
i had a nap and when i got up it was almost time for lunch. gram made me a yummy fish dish with spinach and cheese. i ate it up yum.
after lunch mom got me all changed and i went out on a super secret adventure with gram and grandad.
today we went to visit the happy hens. i saw chicks- i got to touch the fuzzy. duck was there and goat, pig, sheep, all my farm friends. it was great. we went to the kid play area and there was a big bus. i got to drive. it ruled!
to top off my day when we got home i had a splash in the bath. awesome, my hair isn't crunchy any more.

yesterday was ok despite all the U2 videos. mom and i hung out. i fell asleep before gram got home. but that's ok. i was up again in time for ghost whispererer. gram had already gone to bed but grandad was still up. mom said that i could stay up and watch tv with him as long as i was quiet. i had a great time. grandad lets me play with cool things like his phone and the clickers.
slept ok after mom took me upstairs. i only got up once and that was for a reset. my head was banging at the end of the bed. mom dragged me back down to the other end and i was ok until wake up time.
i got mom out of bed with my singing. she made me some mush, i think it's called banannana wake up or something. meh. i ate it all though. mom then gave me some banannana rounds. she left me in charge of getting them from my tray into my mouth. trickier than it sounds, banannana rounds are squishy and slippy.
i saw gram and gave her good morning kisses. she has to go to work this morning- boo. good news is she'll be done in time for us to go to story time at the lieberry. more good news- she doesn't have to work again until next week.

mom says that today is st patrick's day. he's like the patron saint of ireland. he chased all the snakes out or something and turned the people there into catholics. if we were in america, we would celebrate by wearing something green, eating corned beef and cabbage and drinking loads of beer, but we're in england where the corned beef comes in a can and smells like dog food. the english don't celebrate st patrick's day, go figure.
note to self: chewing on a horse chestnut is like trying to kiss a porkypine. i don't think i will do that again.
jeebus save me. no one told me i'd have to watch U2 videos all day. i would have gone to work with gram.

i staid up way past my bedtime last night. i didn't want to sleep.
got mom up at midnight. got her up again at 3am. we hung out until 4 when we both fell back to sleep. finally it was 6am and time for breakfast.
had baby rice and banannana rounds. mom says that i can'te at banannana mushy forever so she sliced one up for me this morning.

i spent most of the day with my gram, mom was there too. the three of us went into town. mom bought me more juicy. i've decided that my new bedtime is 7pm.

i spent most of the day hanging out with gram. that was fine with mom since she had a major headache all day.
gram and i did a super load of fun stuff. we hung out at the lieberry for ages like a couple of homeless people. we saw fishes at the fishy store. they were swimming around and i was trying to probe them.
i had an accident and got my first bloody lip. mom got me dressed in my jammies. they are very cool jammies with pictures of hammer and wrenches. well i was trying to probe a screwdriver on my tummy and just fell right over. i banged my face and there was blood in my mouth. i blame teeth. stupid teeth.

boogies
i've been full of boogies lately. crusty ones, sticky ones, green ones, boogies of all description. one morning mom got me out of bed and i blew boogies all over her shoulder. the other day a huge one came out and dad screamed like a girl. mom pulled one out at breakfast time that was like a mile long, it was half crusty and half sticky. what the fuck? mom says that boogies are our friends. they help nose filter out sicky germs and other things that shouldn't come in.

i feel a little better today. the past week or so my nose has been snuffly and i've been hot. i've been miserable and brought everyone along wiht me.
last night i got mom up at midnight30. my nose was full of boogies and i couldn't breathe. she got me some warm milk so i could have a drink. she found this stinky stuff she said would help me clear my nose and coated dribbles in it. i fell asleep and didn't get up again until 6am. so i guess it works.
had a good breakfast. mom made me apple and banannana cereal. i only get that once in awhile since because it's expensive and doesn't last long. i also had a fruity pot since we are out of banannanas. yes we have no banannanas today.
it's friday. mom and dad usually take me food gathering today. i better help mom work on the list.

did the food gather. i got loads of yummy things to eat. new things like different jellos and yoghurts. mom finds it utterly bizarre that english kids are allowed to eat strawberry flavored things from 4months old. she finally broke down and bought these new things even though there are strawberry flavors in there.
took both my naps today without problems and they were long naps too. i guess i was tired. ate some tasty treats. just finished my dinner. i had fisherman's pie with extra mushy peas. mom says tomorrow i am going to poo green. i had soup with toasties for lunch with added peas.
just going to spend the rest of my day hanging out with gram and grandad.

musical interlude that only makes sense to my mom.




mom says the guy in this video has lots of teeth


the scariest bunch of geeks you will ever come across

what a crazy night. everything went ghey just after midnight. i started fussing, a lot. mom took me to see dad in his office while she got a bottle. i fussed a bit more before drinking my warm milk. went back to sleep only to get up an hour later.
i cried a lot. mom took me downstairs since dad was still up, he came too. they tried loads of things to make me happy but nothing worked. eventually i just got worn out and went back to sleep. i fell asleep in my downstairs bed.
dad said that he would sleep on the couch next to me. a sleep over with dad, awesome.
we slept for about two hours before i decided that it was time to get up. dad. dad. dad. wake up. it's 5.30am. come on. stuff to do.
grandad got up too and the three of us did stuff. i was grouchy and fussy so they got an earful of the humming whine. it's the kind of noise that makes you want to shoot yourself in the head after about 10minutes. mom hears it all the time.
finally at 7.30 dad went and got mom up. oh man. she found me in my highchair eating a chocolate cookie. i got a lecture on how only big kids get cookies for breakfast. mom made me baby rice and i had some banannana too.
mom and i are going to play. gram has to work all day. i might go visit her later with grandad.
mom says that i look taller today. maybe that's why i was so fussy last night- i was growing.

busy busy busy. updatery soon.

another night another round of keeping mom up. it sure is hard work. i got her up loads. i need my blankie. i've lost my sucker. i need to be turned around. the usual reasons.
we were to worn out, we both fell asleep on the couch after breakfast. when we got up, gram was in the kitchen. i had a snack and watched her make a cake. hung out with gram and gradad for awhile. mom had to do stuff in town.
mom came back with bags of things for me. i got new toys and some spring jackets. ate lots of good things. gram made me sheppard's pie with brocolies for my lunch. then gram made me butternut squash and risottos with cheese- good stuff.

i'm obsessive compulsive about rolling the dough. no one rolls it better or more of it than me.

spent most of the night getting mom up for stuff. she was pretty annoyed. i had my breakfast and wiggled.
turns out i'm spending the day with gram. mom is on one of her adventures. gram and i drove her to the busstop. mom had some issues getting me into the car. she started screaming and i crash landed in my seat. what? what? am i hurt? did i poke an eye out or lose a finger? nope but mom dislocated her knee. nothing to be concerned about, it happens all the time.
mom still went on her trip to worcester. gram and i had a day chock full of fun.

apparently i kept mom up most of the night. it's her word against mine. she says i was talking in my sleep and waking her up.
i heard mom and dad talking. mom suggested that they move and not tell me where they were going. dad said there was no point since i would only find them again.
anyway, i started singing this morning at 5.30am. wake up wake up wake up, it's time to get up. mom and i went downstairs. she set up this contraption. it looks like a big mesh box. mom plonked me down in it and i had a bit of a play while she got my breakfast. this must be the secure storage mom was talking about.

after much thought and research i have come to the conclusion that banannanas taste much better after mom has taken the skin off.

i think it's best if we just pretend last night didn't happen. got up at 6am and mom took me downstairs. i wiggled a bit and then had my breakfast, baby rice and banannana mush.
i downloaded a poopie for mom. i'll probably make more later. looks like a nice day out. not sure what we are going to do yet.
i guess i better start listening to mom. she suggested that i take a morning nap. instead i played all the way to lunch time. mom warmed up some yummy creamy chicken fr me to eat. once the warm food started hitting my tummy i got real sleepy real fast. i was nodding off in between mouthfuls.
gram has gone off on a super secret adventure without me. i'm going to try and get mom to talk dad into taking me to the park later. i want to get my swing on.

yesterday turned out ok. grandad and i had an adventure. we went to the park and found some fun. got home in a good mood. mom fed me loads of good food. i played a bit and went to sleep.
had an ok night. slept well. only got mom up a few times. we staid in bed until 6am. got up and had my usual yummy breakfast. mom and i wiggled. we played. i wrestled with turtle. i was having so much fun i didn't want to take a nap.
lunch time rolled around so mom stuffed me full of good food. i had some lentil soup with sundried tomato toasties. after i got all that lovely warm soup in my tummy i felt a bit sleepy. i started to nod off during my fruity pot. mom cleaned me up and i was asleep before she got me to my bed.
when i got up mom changed my clothes and i went out with gram and grandad.

today i am partying on the darkside. i got mom up at 5am. she told me it was too early to get up and to pipe down. i pushed my face against the bars of my bed and spit my sucker out at her. she tossed a few toys in for me to play with. i made loads of noise with them and sang along. once she figured out there was no way in hell i was going back to sleep, she took me downstairs. since it wasn't time to eat yet she made me wiggle until 6am. mom made me some oatymeal and mixed in some of my milk and a bit of fruity pot. it was a huge bowl and i ate it all.
mom and i played and played. she watched me scurry around the room, i watched her get sleepier and sleepier. i was a little sleepy but no naps for me. no matter what mom did, i wasn't going to sleep. at one point she and blankie teamed up on me. i just wiggled away.
mom and gram chatted and decided that they would just take me into town without a nap, maybe he'll sleep in his stroller. so mom got me all dressed up so i looked fancy and we jumped in the car. mom and i went to have my picture taken. there is some ghey ass baby of the year thing going on and mom decided that i should enter it. they don't have a most evil category, mom checked. i was pretty miserable for the girls. they tried and tried but i wouldn't smile at them. one got too close and i started to scream. it was all down hill from there.
mom had this really nice day out in mind since it's rare that she gets to go into town. her and gram were going to visit the shops and do girl things. i was going to sit in my buggy and nap. before going home there would be a stop at subway for yummy treats. what really happened was i started screaming and would not stop. nothing mom or gram did would make it better. i let up just enough for them to buy some batteries. mom was going to pay for them but i started to really screach so she just took me out of the store.
when gram came out of the store mom made me sit in the buggy. i really screamed about that but mom said there was no way they could carry me all the way back to the car. and back to the car is where we went. i ruined the fun day out and we all went home. mom looks so defeated. haha
i gave dad a hard time today too. i'm dishing out evil left and right. going to walk gram to work and have a secret adventure with grandad. should be fun.

got mom up a bunch of times during the night. she made unhappy noises at me. eventually she got tired of jumping out of bed every few minutes and said i could sleep with her. i complained some more but went back to sleep in the end. mom said that we could get up at 6am. so we did. i got my breakfast- fruity porridge today and mushy banannana. it was good. grandad said after lunch he would take me out in the car to visit gram, she is at work all day.

mom and i were talking about music. she says it's perfectly ok to come home looking like marilyn manson but if i ever show up looking like the freak in placebo, there will be trouble. personally i don't see the difference but mom says trust me, there is and it's huge.

this is my current favoritist noise. every time it comes on tv, i stop what i am doing and rock out.
boring fact that my mom knows and only poster geeks seem interested in- rob jones did a butt load of awesome art work for the white stripes.



my mom seems to like this video. job advice from mom: dye your hair black and wear eyeliner. you will make a million dollars and get girls. um yeah. can i just play with my blocks?


everytime this comes on mom's eyes gloss over and she starts muttering about robert longo and men in the cities.

mom wasn't thrilled with her 3.45am wake up call. i was making so much noise she took me downstairs for some warm milk. i eventually went back to sleep. got mom up again at 5.45am. she wasn't so happy about that either. mom says one of these days i will appreciate a warm bed and a good sleep.
had my baby rice and banannana mush. been wiggling. got a cool bump on my head. i look badass. i was doing something i shouldn't and my head wacked the marble. ouchie.
damn, i just got another huge bump. i was playing with my swissarmy turtle. he is so funny and i was laughing super hard and just fell right over backwards. i wacked my head on the wood base of the fireplace. mom scoped me up and checked for brain leaks. then she made me crawl to make sure brain was still sending out messages. yup, working ok. think i will get blankie and lay down for a bit though.
breaking news: mom has spotted two new teeth on the way in. my two front teeth should be here next week.

got mom up a little earlier than usual. i wanted to tell dad bye. he's off on a trip and i won't see him all day.
had my breakfast usual. mom gave me a lemon to play with when i was done. i chewed on it a bit and then it rolled away. mom gives me fruit out of the fruit bowl all the time. the other morning i tenderized an apple for gram. think i will just spend the rest of the morning getting my wiggle on.
i heard mom and gram talking and they have agreed that i am a big boy now and no longer need my bottles sterilizer. mom was all- what's the point when he eats things off the floor anyway.
went to the park with gram. i was asleep before we got out the door. park was good, did fun things.
went to story time with gram and mom. well mom went picture taking at the church next door. gram and i went to the lieberry. and that was pretty much my day.

i guess mom is right, the more i sleep the better i feel. i had a really great night's sleep. i woke up singing i was in such a good mood. mom said it was a little early to be up so we snuggled in bed until 6am.
had my usual breakfast, wiggled and played with mom. saw gram and gave her morning kisses. she has to work all day.
mom gave me something new for snack. i had orange jello, no sugar added. mmmmmm good. i could have eaten the whole pot.
ate my lunch like a good boy. it was delicious and nutritious as mom says. just been playing with mom and reading stories.
mom caught me trying to climb the stairs. i had both knees on the first step. go me. i was going to tell dad it was time for lunch.

it's english mother's day today. i've been making mom stinkie poopies. so far i've delivered two. slept alright last night. mom and i both woke up in ok moods.
mom and gram went somewhere and i hung out with grandad. we did guy stuff. gram and mom came back and fed me lunch. i ate loads of creamy chicken casserole.
went to the park after lunch with gram and grandad. we saw tons of cool stuff including the waterbuffalo. mom and dad went to the store and bought me loads of treats.
not much to report. ate my dinner, played and had a good night story with gram.

had a busy night. woke mom up at midnight30 with blood curdling screams. dad came rushing in from his office to make sure i wasn't being axmurdered. what's wrong? he's sleep screaming. yup that's right, my eyes never even opened and when i was done screaming i went back to snoring. in the next two hours i got mom up no less than five times. finally she gave up and i got to sleep in her bed.
busy day doing stuff. so far i've wiggled and made a mess with my toys. i ate my breakfast, baby rice and mushy banannana. i downloaded a super poopie for mom. saw gram and picked up my morning kisses.
gram has to work today, that's the bad news. good news is she is in charge of story time. grandad and i are going, if i'm a good boy.
