Me and My Family

Poke ya toungue at mum son.
Poke ya toungue at mum son.

Something so dependant needs a tough dad,  A dad who will be there when the nappy needs changing and an odd lump can be seen. Someone so tiny needs a strong dad, A man who can take the strain of carrying this little angel around the shop or the park to see the pretty flowers. Someone in pain needs a skilled dad, A man who knows a thing or two about farting and burping. My son is that someone and he needs his dad.

I really can't understand a bloke whom is not willing to give parenthood a go. No matter the situation together or not, ready or not, young or old, there really is no excuse for not trying to be a dad in all ways rather than just biologically, situations can usually be resolved either civilly, or thru court and The rewards are great sure they smell from time to time scream and dribble, but they also smile and laugh when they are happy they hug and dribble. It is more rewarding than getting paid for doing a job my son is gr8 and I'm going to be the best

potty

Comment Published at 21:2521:252 comments2 comments15 Visits15 VisitsReport
bub is nearly 2 soon and still does not use the potty i have found some advice and there are a few inventions to help like apparently a musical dvd about poo it stinks etc and things for him to aim at if I put them in the loo but just the basics for now would be helpful. Where do I put potty? cold tiled laundry next to toilet or loungeroom where he can be warm and watch tv? and then there are concequences if he wee's on carpet as I rent  also when do I put him on? when I go or the latter plus random I was told every 30mins through out the day ?? umm I do have things to do!  I wish lil man could talk to me but for now its a guessing game

Look at me

Comment Published at 01:5801:581 comments1 comments18 Visits18 VisitsReport
Getting an energetic toddlers attention is difficult so I have found a lil trick to help me get my message across crystal clear I have started going to my bub and kneeling at his level face to face and holding his lil chin then asking him not to do what ever destructive thing it was he was doing. having his eyes focused on me allowes him to concentrate on just me usually this will work! great huh!

Mess

Comment Published at 20:5020:501 comments1 comments33 Visits33 VisitsReport
Well it is another month and I find myself very unhappy with the mess and clutter no matter what I do each day to keep it down toys and dishes seem to multiply overnight,  I have even played with bub outside and taken him for walks but to no avail he just gets up from his nap and starts pulling everything he can find down onto the floor and I mean everything not just his toys! I can't help but wonder if he is Add / Adhd how would I tell?? How can I stop this unruley behaviour? Our messy dirty home makes me blue and although I provide a good example he still wont help us pick it all up. ARRRRR I know there will be mess but gosh this is ridiculas! If other parents have had or are having this experience plese comment on what you did Thanx

Developments

Comment Published at 21:5821:580 comments0 comments17 Visits17 VisitsReport
Well my bub is learning very fast he can say more words sit on a chair at the dinner table without being tied to it (we used to harness him for added support not be cruel or anything) and we have the potty out in case he makes a signel and he has used it a couple of times with us putting him on it not him going to it by himself but still he is getting the idea. He sits and watches tv instead of playing and I have to say he is learning from it (I think he is anyways) I have now got a different form of employment and things are going well life is good! Hmm what to get her for mothers day (our son is still too small to do anything and she deserves something nice) Anyways Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers for tomorrow
