Daddy, dancing

This morning the girls were sat at the table while Jay and I got together the breakfast and packed lunches to the sound of the radio playing in the background.

AJ: “Daddy, do you need to go to the bathroom?”

Jay: “No, that’s my dancing”

Ha, ha, ha.

Lie in… or not.

cheek, children, Daddy, lazy, lie in, Lies, sleep

Today Jay had the day off and I headed out to work in the morning. I dragged myself out of bed at 7.15 and left him sleeping with our youngest daughter snuggled up beside him.

I had only been downstairs about fifteen minutes when Bart appeared in the kitchen.
“Hi Mummy” she chirped.
“Hi Sweetie.  I thought you were having a lie in with Daddy”
“I was.  But I wanted to see what you were doing”
“I am chopping vegetables for the guinea pigs and then I am going to work”
“What’s for breakfast?”
“I don’t know, Daddy is in charge of your breakfast today. Now off you go, back up to bed for a lie down” And off she trots.

Five minutes later AJ skipped in.
“Morning Mum” she sings
“Morning AJ”
“What are you doing?”
“Chopping vegetables for the guinea pigs”
“Oh. Can I help?”
“Not at the moment. I am trying to get this done before I go to work”
“Oh. Are you making breakfast?”
“No, Daddy will do it when he gets up”
“I am going to go see Daddy” And she disappeared back upstairs.

Ten minutes later both girls reappeared in the kitchen and sat at the table.
“I told you Daddy was making breakfast.” I said
“He is getting up now” AJ replied.

A few minutes later Jay strolled into the kitchen fully dressed.
“What are you doing up? I thought you were having a lie in.”
“The girls told me you had sent them up to say you were going to work and I had to get my lazy butt out of bed. So here I am”
“What? I said no such thing!”

“What’s for breakfast?” Bart asked innocently as she and AJ sat grinning at each other.

Clarks, Daddy, mary janes, new shoes

While we were out shopping with her Christmas money, AJ, Jay and I popped into Clarks to buy her a new pair of shoes. After looking at a few styles AJ and I finally agreed on a pair of purple patent mary janes with a little bow and lights in the heels that flash when ever she walks.

New shoes 2 Now, like any female young or old, she wanted to wear her new shoes straight away, but we had a problem. It was raining and she did not want to get her shoes wet.

Thank goodness she had her own personal slave Daddy to carry her from the car to the shops and back!

New shoes
