Jack received a book called Peter and the Pirate for Xmas. The story is about a pirate who goes into a pet shop to buy a parrot but instead is sold a pig and a variety of other substitutes for his pirate ensemble. Instead of a cutlass the owner sells him a pooper scooper. When reading this to Jack in bed he has been know to whip a similar item out from who knows where and declare gleefully "I've got a pooper scooper". This item from his beach set has taken on a whole new level of glamour. I think the idea that a pirate with a pooper scooper is ridiculous is lost on him. |

While there are a number of draw-backs to being a second baby (neglect, rough older brothers who steal toys) on Saturday Luke discovered that there are advantages too. While first children are earnestly fed on home prepared purees and all that is healthy Luke was able to blissfully tuck into his first icecream at the tender age of six months old. And he wasn't giving it up for anything! Eventually I wrested the remnants off him and got help to restore some semblance of cleanliness to the sticky, happy, chocolate flavoured mess that was Luke. |

We got a doctor's kit from the toy library which Jack has been very happy with. He has been busily checking ears, testing reflexes ("gently Jack gently"), calling an ambulance, checking blood pressure and listening to chests. Richard: "Doctor Jack doctor Jack, there's an emergency! There's a sandwich that needs eating" Jack takes a bite. Round to Richard. Feeding toddlers is tedious, drawn-out and unrewarding |

Luke has now reached that stage that everytime I take a moment to adjust the nappy I am about to put on him he rolls away onto his stomach and I have to start again |
