  • “Stop talking and…”

    Lara, we love you, but you never stop talking…ever. Seriously. You talk constantly, or you repeat the same thing over and over and over.

    The most spoken phrase said to you at the moment is…

    “Stop talking and…” 

    …eat your breakfast / lunch / dinner, …brush your teeth, …get dressed, …put your shoes on, …take your shoes off, …put your coat on, …take your coat off, …put your toys away, …put your clothes in the wash, …get in the car, …get out of the car, …go to the toilet, …wash your hands.

    It’s relentless, and incredibly frustrating.

    You will tell us you really need a wee, and then stop and tell us about something completely unrelated!

    Just now, you wanted to go with Daddy to collect the shopping, after being asked 3 times to put your shoes on, your then asked “Daddy, can we practice your guitar?”. It’s crazy! 

    Even Mrs Lampard your teacher picked up on it in your parents evening, that you talk a lot, and often interrupt clasd to say something completely unrelated.

    Let’s hope it’s something you grow out of soon.

  • Food Glorious Food

    Every night, without fail pizza for dinner. It was all your eat. I never thought you, would eat anything else. They say that kids will suddenly want to try anything. I didn’t believe it, and then…

    Pasta! Fish fingers! Sausages!

    You are asking to try different things. It’s amazing!

    Well done you!

  • How tall is Lara Christmas 2021?

    How tall is Lara Christmas 2021?

    Hey Bug, 

    We measured you again, and you are now…105cm!

    You have grown 8cm since last Christmas. Amazing!

    We usually measure you on Christmas Eve, but you just couldn’t wait! ๐Ÿ˜‚

  • Lara Loves Cartoons

    Hey Bug, 

    When you’re older, you often get asked what tv programmes you watched when you were younger. We thought we would give you list of stuff you watch at the moment…or should I say “we” watch. You are a bit bossy when it comes to the TV, you won’t let us watch what we want to watch while you are awake. We have to squeeze it into those two hours between putting you to bed, and us going to bed. Ha ha!

    So, in no particular order:

    • Shimmer & Shine
    • Paw Patrol
    • Peppa Pig
    • Curious George
    • Mr Bean
    • Brave Bunnies
    • Any film with Minions in it (eg. Minions, Despicable Me 1, 2, 3)
    • Hey Duggie
    • Alphablocks
    • Numberblocks
    • Jojo & Gran Gran
  • Lara Loves Writing

    Lara Loves Writing

    Guess which clever girl wrote some of her own name by herself without being asked?

  • Lara Loves Her New House

    Lara Loves Her New House

    We have been living in the new house for almost 4 months now and we wanted to document it for you.

    As a family we are so much happier. It has everything we wanted to do to the old house…greenhouse, conservatory, large driveway, detached garage, large garden, pond (with frogs)…

    You keep telling us how happy you are in your new house, which makes us happy and smile.

    Although selling and buying was stressful and at a really tough time during the Pandemic Lockdown.

  • Lara Is Going To East Hunsbury Primary School

    Lara Is Going To East Hunsbury Primary School

    We finally found out which school you are going to! East Hunsbury Primary School!

    After moving house, unfortunately we had to reapply for your school and it took longer than usual. We didn’t get our first choice of Wootton Park School, but hoping to get you in for secondary school.

    You are so creative and head-strong, we believe this school will be better for you.

    We have seen your teachers on a Zoom call, which wasn’t that exciting, but there will be a Teddy Bear’s Picnic that you and Daddy are going to on the 5th July. I hope you both find it fun!

  • Lara Loves Snow 2021

    Lara Loves Snow 2021

    Hey Lil Bug, 

    Your first proper snow day! The snow was perfect for snowballs and building snow people. 

    You had so much fun making them and rolling the big balls for making snow people. 

    You were sad when they melted. But we’re excited about making so more when we got some more snow. 

    [ngg src=”galleries” ids=”5″ display=”basic_imagebrowser”]Love you lots,

    Mama Bug x
