Ham Dinosaur

The other day while he was eating his sandwich, which is process a bit like an autopsy, his ham took the form of a scarey dinosaurs head and attacked his finger. it was very traumatic for everybody.

The Seven Seas

While i stopped for lunch he climbed aboard the good ship 'trunki' and set sail using his trusty kaleidoscope to see what was on the horizon. Not so many ships for him to pillage and plunder, more colourful changing patterns made of stars and triangles.

Black Rainbow

I had no idea what this thing was from his mums hairdressing kit, but he kindly explained. I find this one quite sad.

Stink Wars

Just previous to this, we had all been remarking on my smelly socks. As junior squirl waved his lightsaber about and thrust it under my nose, asking me to 'smell it!' i noticed it actually smelt of nothing! so this must have been some kind of hard man action movie threat.

The Dispute

Sometimes it just isn't worth arguing with a two year old. Their logic is unquestionable, and their debating tactics completely above anything that i can bring.

Space Caddette

Sitting at lunch one day, the boy told me of his travels. Then crushed me with the news that i was too big to come along.

Poor Daddy

Being a self employed artist can get tough sometimes, especially when your son empties your dust filled wallet to find nothing but a drivers license and a load of receipts with all of the useful information rubbed off.

night night everybody

Before bed he went through a phase of having to say good night to everything he saw. At one point this crossed over a phase of having to kiss everything/everyone on both cheeks as a greeting or a farewell.

Meaty Owl

Sometimes when the young chap says something, and i'm not sure what he means i think of words that sound like what he is saying and try to fit them in to the sentence. On this occasion though, i could think of nothing, so i guess he meant to say it.

My other beard

As i have a beard, he is convinced that he must have one too. I had no idea that he had more than one though.

Hair Cut

Some of his best quotes come from bath time. I guess it's when he feels least imprisoned by the constraints of society. He had recently seen me getting a haircut from his mum, my wife, so he thought he would give it a try. The disdain in his voice when i questioned the use of the duck as a hairdressing tool was stinging enough to stop me questioning him again.

Daddy got beef?

Junior sat and ate his dinner while making polite conversation just to keep me entertained. He ate the fish while remarking on how yummy the chicken was, and then confronted me with this unexpected question.

Ear Showers

One morning the boy came in to the bedroom in his brilliant all in one rocket pyjamas. He has some how found my ear phones on his journey from the room next door. I had never really looked at ear phones properly before, but he was totally right! Ear showers . . . .of course.

Calling all the yodas

The young fella gave french a very good go for the first time with his own rendition of frere jaques. He hasn't seen star wars yet, as he's a bit young. I really liked the idea of a whole army of yodas, and the fact that you could summon them with this song.

Winter Walk

Here is young squirl on a winter walk, dressed in his finest stag hat. He decided that we needed to collect every stick, and branch that we came across. The text here represents his thoughts rather than what he was actually saying!
