haha my DS was the same, didn't speak a word til he was coming up for 2 1/2, seemed like he went from silence to being a chatterbox in the space of a fortnight!!
He certainly makes up for it now, from the moment he wakes up, he never stops, 'why?' seems to be his favourite question and he asks the oddest things like, before he went to bed last night, I tucked him in, kissed him nn and went to leave room, conversation went as follows:
DS: Mum, can I tell you a question?
Me: ok....
DS: why do snakes slither?
Me: (a bit confused) well, they do it to move about
DS: why?
Me: cos they have no legs
DS why?
Me: ............ I honestly don't know, go to sleep
At least they get you thinking eh?0 -

DD2 is a why and how girl, as the questions keep coming one after the other it normally ends up 'just because they do' instead of 'me tell you a question', i get 'me tell you a word'.....:DYou know your getting old when yougo to the pub sit outsideand admire the hanging basket :cool:

Happy birthday, Noah's Penniless Mum...hope its a good one.
Bright and sunny here and then heavy showers so not a day for putting out clothes.
Chicken legs, roast veg and potatoes for dinner...not doing pudding as don't need one, no doubt OH will need something like ice-cream and tinned fruit, will try to abstain, fruit ok but really should not be having ice cream...we get this lovely vanilla stuff from Lidl, usually €4.99 for 2.5 litres, was on offer last week for €3.49 so bought some even 'though we already had some!

Hello all. Anyone remember me? I've been MIA for a bit.
Been trying to get started on spring cleaning, with mixed success - got 2 lots of curtains washed and rehung, but the weather's gone horrible so the sofa cover and rest of the curtains are going to have to wait.
Lots of baking going on - made a carrot & orange cake yesterday, first time I've tried the recipe, and still waiting for Mr LW's verdict.:huh::whistle:
Also, I've had him home for 2 days. Yesterday was planned, as he was on early shift, but today the chap who was supposed to do the early morning checks overslept, so Mr LW ended up doing them, and his boss told him to work from home again and knock off at 15:30:dance:
Anyway, I've fallen a bit behind on what's happening with everyone, so I'll just say that I hope everyone is well and happy, and a big ((((HUG)))) for anyone who wants/needs one today.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Afternoon all :hello:
well the sun did come out but I was well into something else, so no gardening got done, any excuse
I never used to be like this, I loved gardening still do if I am honest, just hate doing it in the cold, my finger goes white and my joints ache :rolleyes:
we had chicken tikka and salad for lunch with cherry toms and 1/2 a little pork pie each,found lurking at the back of the fridge, salady stuff nearly gone now.
beef stew in the SC smells yummmm, and I found 2 WW Banoffee deserts in the freezer for afterwards, they are in the fridge thawing out.

Making veg mince with mashed tatties, gravy, cabbage and leeks for tea.
Just started to sneeze and blow nose like crazy so think DD may have kindly given me her cold.
All the huge pot of soup has been eaten and Italian bread turned out really well.
Going for a hot drink and coddle myself with a good book.
Hugs and see you all later.
