My baby is 2

Right so my baby is 2 now!! Can't believe it! My little baby's not a baby anymore!!!!!

We had such a lovely day... got the nice surprise of not having any kids for the days so got to spend the whole day giving my bubs all my attention!

Couldn't give her her presents till Lee got home for his lunch!! Grrrr!!! But it was worth the wait! She had a lovely time opening them all.... She played with her new baby all day!

Then we went to the shop on her new bike! Geez Louise it's hard to control when she's deliberately steering the wrong way!! Hahaha!!! Nearly ended up head first into the road! :( Brat!!

Then Jackie, Jess, Kim, Amber, Ros and Russler came round and she got even more spoilt and had a little cupcake so she could blow the candles out! Hehehe!!! She was too busy stressing that we'd turned the light off to concentrate on blowing...so she gave a feeble contribution! (you can see from the pictures!)

Then when everyone left she had a nice snuggle with her mummy and daddy....wouldn't go to sleep so we let her get in with us for a while!!! She didn't go to sleep till past 11 o'clock!!! Little brat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Went to see the lights being turned on on the tree in our estate last night!! Had such a lovely time! T'was freezing but got a double whammy of mulled wine (cos Lee doesn't like it so i nicked his) and warm mince pies!! WARM MINCE PIES!!!

Bobs had a brilliant time singing her heart out and running round like a loon! :) Feel all Christmasy now!!! Woohoo!!!!

So...forgot to post about the weekend in England!!!

T'was wicked! Didn't get home till late on Friday night due to smelly crash on motorway and subsequent detour via train to Liverpool street...

Rang mum to meet me at Maccy Ds....as me and Bobs were going up the escalator who should be going down! MUM AND CHRIS!! Hahaha!! Cue mum moonwalking up the down and getting dodge looks from all the suited and booted lovelies!!! Hahaha!!

Got up early on Saturday and went to my beloved Asda! Got Bobs christmas clothes...couldn't resist the miniture prom dress a la netting! Hahaha!! So she's sorted now! :P Gonna serve as a double whammy for her party dress for Michelle's party on 27th! Whoop whoop!!

Got Bobs cake for her little party! GIANT FRENCH FANCY!!! Yeah yeah yeah! Made a little Iggle Piggle out of icing! First attempt went donkey so had to do another! T'was brill....she loved it!!!

Then went to the 60's and 70's party! Had a great time and Bobs was a very good little girl!!! Mother got a little drunkipoo's and broke her toe a la Martyn jumped on it!!! Hahaha!!! She's so accident prone it hurts!!!

Sunday was cool! Everyone came over to see us for Bobi's birthday!! She got so spoilt!!! We had a lovely day and im so glad that everyone came!!! She's still talkin about it all now!! Keeps asking where everyone is!!! :)
There are 12 cards up on the wall already and it's not even her birthday yet!!! Little rat!!!

Saw Claire's baby bump for the first time!!! Can't wait for Little Mac to be born!!! Whoop whoop!! Check out the little bumpage in the pic ---->

Going to a 60s 70s party on Saturday..... going as a punk...not really too hard for me! Just wearing all my clothes at once! :P Excuse my evil 'paint' drawing but you get the point!

Oh my god!!! My child is yuck! She's been puking on and off since Saturday and now she has the butt explosions!!! Geez Louise!!! Had to dunk her in the bath!!! Glad i love her so much otherwise i would've been puking all over the place too!! Hahaha!!!

Poem for Dad...

I CRY

I cry for all the things that happened.
I cry for all that should have been.
I cry for all the things we saw
and all the things we should have seen.

I cry because you went through so much
I cry because i want you here
I cry for every memory in me
my heart is full of tears.

I cry because i wish you'd met her, but
I cry because you did not know,
I cry, you were spared the pain of leaving
your grandchild as well as your own.

I cry because you should be here
I cry with all my grief and pain,
I cry for all the things lost out on
that we'll never have again.

I cry because my heart is bursting
I cry for my wedding day,
I cry because you will not share it
Or be there to give me away.

I cry because i know you're still here,
I cry because i wish i could see
I cry because i love you so much
but i know you're here with me.

I cry for all the things you said
I cry for all we did together,
I cry because its just too final,
You died, you're gone,
you're gone for forever.

I cry and cry and cry.

I Stood By Your Bed

I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.

I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep.
I whispered to you softly as you brushed away a tear,

"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,

You were thinking of the many times your hands reached out to me.
I was with you at the shops today, your arms were getting sore.

I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

I was with you at my grave today, you tend it with such care.

I want to reassure you that I'm not lying there.
I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.

I gently put my hand on you, I smiled and said "It's me."

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.

I tried so hard to let you know that I was standing there.
It's possible for me to be so near you every day.

To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...

In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is almost over... I smile and watch you yawning

And say, "Goodnight, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,

I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.

Be patient, live your journey out... then come home to be with me.

Crazy Mother....

.....managed to convince Mum to drive us to Hobby Craft to have a nosey around for interesting stuff.... on the way home we were winding her up, annoying her and giggling!!! :P She got in a mood and hit chris, who was sitting next to her, and her watch undone...she flicked it off her wrist in her temper.................STRAIGHT OUT THE WINDOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris screamed at her to stop......she pulled in down the road (in the middle of Bexleyheath) and we had to run back and find it!!!! :P
It survived nearly being crushed by 2 buses!!!! :P
Could only happen to this family!!!

More Spike...

Sardines

A baby sardine saw her first submarine
She was scared and watched through a peephole.
"Oh, come, come, come," said the sardine's Mum,
"It's only a tin full of people."

Goodbye SS
Go away girl, go away
And let me pack my dreams
Now where did I put those yesteryears
Made up with broken seams
Where shall I sweep the pieces
My God they still look new
There's a taxi waiting at the door
But there's only room for you
The Soldiers At Lauro
Young are our dead
Like babies they lie
The wombs they blest once
Not healed dry
And yet - too soon
Into each space
A cold earth falls
On colder face.
Quite still they lie
These fresh-cut reeds
Clutched in earth
Like winter seeds
But they will not bloom
When called by spring
To burst with leaf
And blossoming
They sleep on
In silent dust
As crosses rot
And helmets rust.

Down the Stream the Swans All Glide
Down the stream the swans all glide
It's quite the cheapest way to ride.
Their legs get wet,
Their tummies wetter
I think after all
The bus is better.

Rain
There are holes in the sky
Where the rain gets in,
But they're ever so small
That's why rain is thin.

Love Spike Milligan!!!

The ABC

'Twas midnight in the schoolroom
And every desk was shut
When suddenly from the alphabet
Was heard a loud "Tut-Tut!"

Said A to B, "I don't like C;
His manners are a lack.
For all I ever see of C
Is a semi-circular back!"

"I disagree," said D to B,
"I've never found C so.
From where I stand he seems to be
An uncompleted O."

C was vexed, "I'm much perplexed,
You criticise my shape.
I'm made like that, to help spell
Cat And Cow and Cool and Cape."

"He's right" said E; said F, "Whoopee!"
Said G, "'Ip, 'Ip, 'ooray!"
"You're dropping me," roared H to G.
"Don't do it please I pray."

"Out of my way," LL said to K.

"I'll make poor I look ILL."

To stop this stunt J stood in front,

And presto! ILL was JILL.

"U know," said V, "that W

Is twice the age of me.

For as a Roman V is five
I'm half as young as he."

X and Y yawned sleepily,

"Look at the time!" they said.

"Let's all get off to beddy byes."

They did, then "Z-z-z."

On the Ning Nang Nong

In the Ning Nang Nong

Where the Cows go Bong!

And the monkeys all say BOO!
There's a Nong Nang Ning

Where the trees go Ping!

And the tea pots jibber jabber joo.

On the Nong Ning Nang

All the mice go Clang

And you just can't catch 'em when they do!

So its Ning Nang Nong Cows go Bong!

Nong Nang Ning

Trees go ping

Nong Ning Nang

The mice go Clang

What a noisy place to belong is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!
