New words and expressions…….

Ive just taken Jack up to his bedroom for some “quiet time” upstairs and he’s stumbled as we were walking in. He stood straight up, and said ouch “My knackers hurt now!”
Dont you just love the phrases they pick up at nursery???????

Also Lukes toilet training at the minute. I was half paying attention to him earlier and half to what I was doing in the kitchen so when he announced he’d done a poo to me, I remined him not to “forget to wipe between your bum cheeks!”
Luckily I managed to stop him wiping his face at the last second! lol

“Its like a little christmas miracle”

Not to sound too cheesy but that’s exactly how one of Jacks teachers described his sudden change in mood at school last week. He’s stopped crying when I drop him off and even takes his coat off and goes and sits himself down in group time. Apparently he’s joining in with things more, speaking to the other children and just generally a much happier little boy at nursery.

Whats bought about this sudden change? Well a week last friday ago he had the operation to fit bilateral grometts (In both ears in other words)

He went in at 7.30, went to theatre at 10.30, and by 11.30 was sat up in bed eating toast like he was starving! We were home by 2pm and you really wouldn’t have guessed he’d had anything done. He was a star all the way through. Really good. He just sat and watched them while they put the drips into his hands and never flinched apparently. All in all we’re really proud of him.

Since he’s had it done we’ve definately noticed a difference. He’s not saying “Sorry?” every time we say something to him because he’s not heard us. He also responds better to people and seems happier.

We’ll just have to see how much things improve for him, but like Someone else has said, so far its been like our own little christmas miracle!

Here you go folks! the (truely) gruesome twosome in all thier glory!!!!!!!

 

Jacks New Bike….

What do you think?????

 Here he is sitting on it. Its one we found as we were walking home from taking the dog for a walk yesterday….

Its very noisy, goes very slowly up hills, apparently gets very dirty and only goes faster when you promise some easter egg when you get home. It also makes revving noises constantly, gets filled up with petrol in Jacks bedroom at night and sleeps in his bed with him.

I got told off for sitting on it by mistake yesterday too lol

Big Boy school was not a success…..

It was Jacks first day at pre school yesterday and at first he seemed fine apparently. After a while though he got very upset and just sat crying for me. I had a phonecall from them and ended up going t pick him up early. As soon as I got there he wsa fine! I think the main problem was that I had snook out without him noticing, normally if he goes anywhere this is the best way to leave, but by the looks of it, probably not the best stratagy for this situation.

We’re determined not to give up though, We’ll be going next week and Im going to spend a few minutes playing with him before saying goodbye properly and explaining that I will be back soon. Hopefully this wont be as traumatic for him.

When He was talking about school though he kept saying it had been fun, so I think up until he relaised I’d gone he’d quite enjoyed it.

Ah well, try again next monday and take it from there
