Er… Not too sure what to make of this little gem that I saw in our local hardware store this morning…

A sign outside our local pub in Towcester… 

…and it would probably be cheaper than putting Nate in a crèche.

Apologies for the blog hiatus - I’ve got a note from my doctor, and my dog ate my homework.

Hopefully re-launching this site sort of in the next couple of days, but don’t call it a comeback… Mainly because I never got there in the first place.

We moved house a few weeks ago, so apologies that the blog has been offline for so long… My parents have gone back to NZ now (sniff) so I’m unsupervised again, but hopefully I’ll get back into regular posting now… If Nate lets me!

Dear pull-up nappies,
Where have you been all my life?

No prizes for guessing what Nate’s first word is probably going to be…

…as demonstrated nicely by Niki, who seems to be convinced that this particular word means “by all means Niki, please go ahead and wipe your backside on the kitchen table”…

(Grandad put this together for us last night… But it was only this morning that it became apparent that in his enthusiasm, the generally agreed order of the alphabet had been cast aside in the interests of speed… I also noticed that we may have accidentally put a few subliminal messages in there…)
