Minor incident really...

Ben's reached the age where he's not wanting to wear his nappy lately. So he's standing in frontof the TV last night with his shorts and nappy off.

I say to Lynda... Better get a nappy on him before he makes a mess of the rug.

Just then, Ben stop watching television and comes over to me. (I'm lying on the couch). He jumps up on me and gives me a big hug.

Oh... What a nice boy. Giving daddy a hug.
I
t's NOW that he decides to relieve himself. On me and the couch.

Cleaned me up. Cleaned him up (put a nappy on this time). Cleaned the couch up. Went back to watching television.

Lucky the couch is leather and wipes off. :-)

The Adventures of Vomit Boy

I've gone to the kitchen added some chicken, some salad and a bread roll to my plate and gone to sit down.

As I'm opening a bottle of wine, Ben takes his first mouthful of sausage. (Kids get sausages. They don't eat nice stuff).

Just then, Ben chokes on his sausage and gags. His reflex response is to vomit ALL OVER THE BLOODY DINNER TABLE.


Now he had just had a bottle , so picture the Exorcist spewing a 30 second vomit all over the nice meal you were about to eat.

My meal, Ben's and Melanie's copped it. (Lynda has not put hers on the table yet).

So, choosing not to eat a side of vomit with my chicken, I scraped all meals into the bin, cleaned up the mess with a couple of towels and then started preparing dinner again.

Ah, the joys of parenting.

Need Sleep

Original Post 20 April 2005

Need sleep. Vomiting children suck the life force out of you.
