in between christmas and new year, ronnie and i were sitting on the sofa watching a spot of wallace and gromit, when quite casually in the conversation he dropped:

r : mummy i need a brother

hpmcq : *choke on tea* i don’t think that’s possible monkey

pause

r : mummy i need a sister

hpmcq : *struggles to keep tea down for a second time* no ronnie i don’t think that’s possible either

r : oh, ok

so what do we think about this then? does he really want a sibling? blooming hope not, there’s going to be a lot of disappointment.

this second week of the new year is the week out of the whole year that i dread the most. i don’t think i’m alone, i’m pretty sure anyone that does my job, in roughly the same product area who also has a family and small children must all feel the same. every time i travel on business i can’t wait to get back. i’m ok once i’m here/there/wherever and I’m in the detail of what i do and cracking on with it, it’s the lack of contact with my boys.

Mummy’s Busy World

bit of a toughie to be tagged in this one. not that i don’t hoard silly amounts of clothes that i just can’t fit into anymore and never will, yes that i do and to my husband’s point, i appear do it very very well. it’s just that it all blooming vacuum packed and squished in to the eves of the top floor that i can’t pull any of the buggers out without fear of bag of clothes exploding on me. and in actually fact whilst rummaging around looking for these vintage threads, oliver promptly reminded me that stuffed right at the back is a suitcase full of coats and when was i going to get rid! NEVER!!!!!!
