Happy Easter!

Thought you'd like this video.


You would think she was fine and all back to her usual self - but I think that was a post chocolate bunny sugar rush, as she is still not herself today :(

Here are some pics of Easter morning:




I thought we might have had a few dramas in  us encouraging Baby A to eat  her most favourite animal (well, apart from Miaow) - but apparently not!

This was bought by my Auntie and Uncle at a 100th birthday party - very cute idea as it's an egg-warmer, so they put a chocolate egg in there for Baby A, as you will see.



What you can't see is that she had another bad night, care of her cold.  I had to sleep in with her for the second night in a row, as all she wants is 'Mummy cuddles' when she is like this.  And I feel so sorry for her.  It's easier to be on hand and in the same room when she's poorly.

At 4am this morning, she puked up the phlegm that had been troubling her all day.  As usual, there was a lot of it.  She puked at mega speed and managed to get it through my hair, down my back and down the back of my pants.  Daddy was on hand with the muslins which are still kept available for this purpose, but she was just too fast.

So there I am, changing my phlegm pants at 4.10 ish.  Happy Easter.  How about some phlegm in your pants Mum.  Have some of that.

At least I saw the funny side.  Poor little lamb.  You've all seen I'm used to being a washer-woman, so what's a few more pairs of pants?

The worst bit was not so much the puke itself as the fact I can't shower because of the work we are having done to the bathroom.  So my sick-hair remains so to the very moment I type.  I have been wet-wiped to within an inch of my life.  But boy I'm looking forward to tomorrow when the shower can have it's first use.  Whoopee!

I would bag first dibs, but in fairness, I'm pretty confident Mr Big won't put up a fight.  Unless he finds the scent of baby phlegm puke alluring, I'm confident he will be pushing me into that shower the second it's useable!

Poor Mr Big.

Wondermum Makes - Tegenarium - Spider House!

My Mum isn't a lover of spiders and unfortunately she passed this fear unwittingly onto Roar when he was small. She didn't want him to stay afraid and so one Christmas, she bought him a Spider House Kit.  Between us we hoped he would learn about them and watch one and see they spend a lot of their time motionless and aren't really that scary. Don't get me wrong, I don't love it when a spider scuttles too close, but it's usually the shock of something scuttling into view that's more 'scary' than the spider itself.  Well, that's what I tell myself anyway!  We have no poisonous spiders to worry about so there really isn't anything to fear (although I know that isn't the same everywhere). We've had this Spider House Kit tucked away in a box for at least a couple of years as Roar was initially not keen.  However, in Lockdown all  the 'kits' are coming out and so has this one and, what's more, he's LOVED IT! He has l...

Wondermum Makes - No-Spider Tegenarium / Spiderless Spider House!

Further to my recent post, I realise not everyone loves spiders and not everyone knows where to find them or is sure if their spiders are safe.  And, as we also have a toddler in our house, we needed a 'Cub Safe' version to ensure no real spiders are harmed by an excited toddler shaking their spider-house! So we decided to make a pretend spider so Cub could also be included :) To make the actual spider house, see my other post - this is just to make the fake spiders! Things You Will Need Our list included single and double-sided tape, curling ribbon, scissors, paper, black pen and optional googly-eyes :) But if you don't have all of the above, you could use glue instead of tape or double-back on itself some single sided tape to make it double-side.  Curling ribbon could be string/cotton/wool etc. Your spider can be any colour so any colour paper will do or colour some in.  You could even use newspaper!  And if you don't have googly-eyes, you can m...

Wondermum Makes - NHS Superhero Angels

Thursday night we 'clapped for carers' and made as much noise as possible in the Thursday night tradition (the UK's way of saying thanks to all the care workers for all they are doing to keep everyone safe throughout this Corona-virus). This inspired our craft idea for today and we made some NHS Superheroes but instead of the traditional hero capes, we decided they were also Angels and so their capes are Angel inspired 'wing-capes' instead :) Things You Will Need We had: various coloured paper, stapler (with staples loaded), cardboard tube, single and double-sided tape, scissors, crayons (for faces), felt tips (for eye colours), black pencil (for mouth), sandwich bag (for mask).  We also show pegs and Gorilla glue (super glue) but these are an alternative option as we only needed to use the stapler and tape.  If you do use glue, the pegs are to hold it together while drying as we have used this method previously. The other items we didn...
