We were having a pre festive season clear out as we do every year – and this involved cleaning out the kitchen cupboards. And then 2 of the 4 children decided to climb into one of them.
Wonder if they could have got out with the childlocks on **I didn’t try**
This is my entry for Wicked Wednesdays over on BrummyMummyof2’s blog – see what others have posted too!
If you are a 4 year old child and you are going to write on a leather dining room chair in biro – don’t write your own name…..
This is my entry for this week’s Wicked Wednesday over on BrummyMummyof2s blog – see what other people have posted!!
This is what happens when you try to take a photo of the 9 year old when he’s got his foot stuck in a tree – and he doesn’t appreciate the photo being taken prior to any assistance!!
The joy of being the child of a blogger………..
You can see better photos of our day trip to Blenheim Palace here!!!
Do pop across and see other people’s Wicked Wednesday photos – probably without sweary children………………..
After the husband and I had an AMAZING 4 day childfree break to New York (sorry!!) it was back down to earth with a bump, not literally – the British Airways landing into Heathrow was very smooth – but it was then a mad dash up the M40, drop off husband and bags (and put loads of washing on – obvs!) and then take youngest 2 daughters to a soft play party for one of their friend’s who was 4. Neither of them would leave my side, so I had to join in all of the ‘fun’ rather sit nursing coffee and cake.
Why is it soooo difficult to get photos of kids using soft play stuff………….
This is my entry for this week’s Wicked Wednesdays over at BrummyMummyof2’s – go and have a look at other people’s fab photos too.
Last week the husband and I were in New York – it was AMAZING and I will get round to blogging about it when I’ve caught back up at home and work!
We, obviously, had to bring the children presents back – and as the 11 year old is starting to like her brands – I spent ages looking for a T shirt for her in Abercrombie & Fitch. I bought this thinking it said ‘That’s Brilliant Darling’
Until the 11 year old said, ‘Mum – I don’t think that says ‘brilliant’ – I think it’s a rude word’.
Yes – I bought my tween a T shirt with the word B*LLSHIT across the front of it. Parent of the week award to me!!
This is my entry for this week’s Wicked Wednesdays – yet again I am posting about my failings – back to the kids looking stupid next week I promise!! Go and have a look at other people’s fab photos too.
Last Saturday the husband and I deposited the 4 children on to family and friends, went for cocktails, popped home for a power nap, got our glad rags on and headed off to a charity ‘Fall Ball’ – it was a brilliant night with lots of great friends, food and booze, and loads of money raised for some excellent causes.
One of my friends took this HIDEOUS photo of us dancing – it is just wrong on so many levels. May I point out that I am not sure what’s happened to my lower left arm?! I have tried, unsuccessfully, to recreate this arm positioning – my father suggested perhaps I need to drink a litre of cheap white wine before attempting it again……..
Normally it’s my kids that feature in Wicked Wednesdays over on Brummy Mummy of 2’s blog – but as soon as I saw this I knew it had to be this week’s entry!! This is obviously what happens when parents have a night off.
After the success of last week’s strop photo (now known as ‘Ballerina Bum‘) for Brummy Mummy of 2’s Wicked Wednesdays I’ve chosen another child’s strop photo this week (we could have a recurring theme here with 4 of the blighters!!)
This is the first time our youngest adopted the ‘I have my arms crossed so this means I’m in a really bad mood’ approach to stropping….
I have to say it’s a skill she’s worked on – in fact my favourite photo of our entire summer which I blogged about here was a variation on this theme!

For this week’s Wicked Wednesday for Brummy Mummy of 2 I’ve gone retro – and back in time to summer 2010. I was heavily (very heavily as you can see!) pregnant with child number 3 – and the eldest was having a mahoosive strop because her brother had told her he didn’t like her!
Classic 18th birthday photo material…..

So – my first #wickedWednesdays post (and I am phobic of the spelling of Wed-nes-day too!) linking over with another more experienced blogging Brummy Mummy @brummymummyof2
Now if only Monarch could have parked the plane the other way round on our way back from Faro to BHX, we wouldn’t have all looked so squinty in the family selfie! (Oh, and one of the children is missing too – never good…….)
This Price is Usually Right
