Help and Advice Needed.....

Miles appart from my usual posts I am today asking all you mummys out there for your help and advice.....

As you are mostly aware I have three boys, 4,2 & 1..... well my four year old, Harrison, has recently started reception school and seems as a rule to be enjoying himself, even though we have had a little blip this week involving a few tears when I leave him...................

well...........the problem i have is........... swearing................swearing ........................ and more swearing.....

It is really awful, the F word and the TW*T word is being used continually and in the perfect contects.......

I have treid to ignore him but the just keeps on " Mummy, Mummy, Mummt TW!T Mummy Mummy F%£&ING"

I have even tapped him hand.........oh and his backside when he was swearing as we walked up the stairs......

Today I have been marching him up the stairs to his bedroom and making him stay there on his own, then when I go to get him back down I remove a toy from his box explaining to him what and why I am doing it.........

He also seems to be really agressive at the moment, full of stomping feet and slamming doors...... is this just a 4 yr old boy feeling his feet or is this the sign of things to come....

Will welcome any advice and tips you may have......

Sorry now bright and colourful photos today but I dont think you would like to see a picture of a tantrum......

Pleasure and Pain !!!!

Today has been one of those pleasure vs pain days......

To start with this ........

Oh how sad am I, this was part of one of my best finds so far, for those of you who dont know, I found the Tea pot, sugar bowl, cream jug and 2 mugs in a local charity shop for £3.90....well one dozzie day I pulled one off of the kitchen unit with the iron cord.....and this one saw its last day as a tea cup when my husband dropped the sugar out of the cupboard onto it..........but there is a ilver lining... tommorow I will be going into the market to find a little plant looking for a nice Bridgewater home !!!!

Now for the pleasure.....

Many of you know that I regularly visit, what I think, is the fab blog of The Vintage Magepie......well after a number of hints to ones OH over the christmas period no little rabbit was hiding under my christmas tree and so I decided this Valentines day to take matters into my own hands and I have bought myself a Valentines / Mothers Day prezzie....

A brown paper bag....

Then a white box.....

Then some lovely rose tissure paper....

and finally !!!!!!!

Let it Snow Let it Snow Let it Snow

Well in comparison to the rest of the country we have got off lightly but we have today had a rather down pour of snow, much to the delight of the boys.....





I have to say I do become a bit of a child when there is snow on the ground, on the way back from collecting H from school I could not resist launching a rather small but rather big at the same time snow ball at him......much to the disgust of sone other passing mothers......so silly and so immature........





We now have a rather strange looking snowman on the front grass expertly built by the boys and my husband after tea.....





I could not help but post a pic of the new knifes, forks and spoons that I bought on ebay for the boys.....





They do brighten up breakfast........

By the way the pots having been lovingly painted by J and H........a master piece I have to say....

I hope you all enjoy this snow safely and like responsible....but very fun....adults...xxxxx
