Don't say 'fffggggggggggttthhhh'

Rosa and Isaac got into an unresolvable argument this morning. Eventually it ended because Rosa got bored. The reason it was unresolvable was because Rosa didn't realise it was an argument. It went like this:

Jamie: Isaac, fffggggggggggttthhhh [fart noise].
Isaac: No, don't do that.
Rosa: [fart noise]
Isaac: No, don't go [fart noise].
Rosa: [fart noise]
Isaac: More agitated: No Rosa, don't go [fart noise].
Rosa: [fart noise].
Isaac: Very agitated and a bit wimpery: NO ROSA, DON'T GO [fart noise].
Rosa: [fart noise]
...

This went on for some time.

Blog backlog

I wrote a postit note of a few things I wanted to blog aaaaages ago. I didn't write a date on it, but I think it was at least a month ago - so before Rosa was one. First of all, she had her first retaliation against Isaac. He had pushed her one too mant times, and suddenly, from the crawling position she growled and charged! Isaac's expression was hilarious - open mouthed he stared at me!

Also, Rosa recently (4 or 5 weeks ago) learned to say tower, and also to build one. She can now also say wower (flower) and seems to think everything is an apple. She also likes soft boiled eggs. In fact she likes everything apart from tomatoes I think.

It's been at least a few months since i played Isaac a bit of James Brown, and told him who it was. It was slightly relevant as we have our running joke of him saying 'I wanna get down like James Brown' when he's finished his lunch. Anyway just now I put The Payback on, and he immediately said 'Oh, thats James Brown mummy'. !!

Isaac had another excellent quote in the monthly creche newsletter:

Sitting at the lunch table: "I wanna get down like James Brown."


Another peach directed at Mummy just now: "I think Mummy's belly is falling out." We think this was a result of the strange cut of Clare's top. At least Isaac agreed with this suggestion.

Rosa's language is now amazing. Everything is 'Daaaa', and whatever you ask her, eg 'Where is Daddy', she points at the ceiling. She still has no time for books, she'd rather distract everyone else. She is pretty good at making towers though, and sort of says 'Toowwwwwwww' when she is making one. She follows instructions a bit as well, i suggested she make a tower the other day and she zombie walked over to the blocks and made one. She is soooo cute. I think she'll probably be a top architect who does a bit of modelling on the side :)

11pm - Tuesday night

Clare and I are both working. Isaac refused to go to bed, and to be fair to him he does not seem tired - well at least he was not at ALL tired at 8pm. So he sat down here for ages, then Clare took him to bed just now.

He is now out on the landing again, saying 'What's the problem, I not in bed Mummy.' The first time he said that i laughed and spat on my laptop screen.

Isaac quotes

Isaac: "Felicia was funny Daddy"
Mummy: "You like Felicia don't you Ikey"
Jamie: "Did you give her a kiss Ikey?"
Isaac: "Yeah. No i didn't actually, cos I went on the tractor."
