Are we nearly there yet mummy? » Batman

Anyone seen Batman’s lower legs?

One day they were there, the next they vanished, but it’s OK because “Mummy, he doesn’t need legs to fly”.

The boy has a point.

World Book Day – An Alien Hugging Batman

After all the palaver and worry of this post …

Teacher Friend Mother of 3, who may now be renamed ‘Bargain Hunter of the Century’ managed to get an Alien dressing up outfit for a fabulous £2 … yes that’s right, 2 golden coins.

It also comes with some gloves but as we were getting ready to leave the house the 5 year old took them off. She also had a pair of underpants to go over her leggings, but they are in a bag ready for school.

I present to you an Alien not wearing her underpants and Batman …

Mrs No Arms & The Slippy Slidy Day

This one is for Sue over at The Book Chook and Potty Mummy over at The Potty Diaries.

During the night it snowed, big fat snowflakes fell as we slept.

I don’t know who was more excited when we opened the curtains; me, the 4 year old, the 2 year old or the dog. School closed for the day. As we ate breakfast we watched several cars try and fail in varying slippy slidy ways to get down our street.

After breakfast several layers were put on topped off with waterproofs and we braved the snow.

We built ‘Mrs No Arms’;

Then the 2 year old took off his gloves and ran round the car knocking the snow off;

Then Mummy put down the camera and the dog joined us. The daft dog loves to catch snow in her mouth much to the 2 year olds delight and cackles. Unfortunately, during the final ‘snow throw’, the dog caught the snow in her mouth and collided with the 2 year olds head which resulted in a deep cut between his eyes, blood all over my new Berghaus, a visit to the emergency Dr and some steri strips, like so;

As he is also Batman in his spare time, he wasn’t out of action for long and returned home for some leapfrog with his sister;

Last night I hoped it would snow, tonight I hope that school is open so I can go to work for a rest. The 4 year old is hoping Mrs No Arms will live to see another slippy slidy day full of fat snowflakes.
