WWM 08

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

Many moons ago, I wrote about my inaugural WWM* award. Another baby, another year and so it is fitting that I reprise this rather dubious title.
And here’s my first self nomination. In the category of outstanding achievement in the field of patience I give you:
Yelling at my ten month old to SHUT THE FUCK […]

They win

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

A has finally started to dress herself, and as is her usual way is getting rather frustrated at any attempt that is less than perfect.  I have found myself on the receiving end of  “Nononononono I DON’T want your help” and “Go away, stop looking at me” delivered with a set of jaw and a […]

E the connoisseur (another fine parenting example)

Monday, April 7th, 2008

E managed to consume a small quantity of Dettol waterless handwash just before bed last night. How she even managed to obtain the offending pump still amazes me because it involved real climbing skill. Of course it had absolutely nothing to do with a lapse in supervision while I was attending to A’s […]

Experiences that I don’t care to repeat

Friday, March 28th, 2008

The funny:
Having to calmly explain to A within earshot of the other highly amused Mums at mother’s group yesterday that no she couldn’t wee standing up like her mate N because she doesn’t have a penis.  Only to catch her a few hours later at home as she was about to STAND on the toilet […]

Taking a mini break

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

Dear internets, I am going to take a mini break from posting* but I’ll be back next week.  I need to ignore the fact that I am turning 32 on Saturday spend some quality time with my family over the Easter break stressing myself stupid over E’s refusal to breastfeed after her first morning feed […]

Stating the obvious

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

Apologies in advance for the non witty and poorly written post. But.
But.
I’m going to start with the positives: E does high fives and can now perch up  on her knees as she plays and reaches for toys, a key precusror to pulling to a stand.. A has started to draw pictures you can actually recognise […]

(Non) domestic goddess

Monday, March 10th, 2008

The Anzac biscuits that A and I baked today may not actually have the look or even proper consistency of correctly prepared home baked goodies. But dammit, even doughy goo can be so moreish.
You guessed it folks, I have nothing profound to say. So I won’t.
I’m off to google “My almost nine month old is […]

And we’re off and racing

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

E is officially on the move. And we’re doing additional babyproofing on the run as we extricate her from dangerous situations that we’d never really thought about.  This is because:
a) It’s been a while since A was on the floor
b) A was an angel child in that regard and didn’t really get into things, and
c) […]

Why I blog

Thursday, February 28th, 2008

As I said earlier, I’ve been tagged by the lovely and talented Averil and my task is to explain why I blog. Apparently I am to provide you with three reasons as to why I choose to inflict my often inane drivel on you people inside the computer.
Hmm. Allow me to pause and […]

Welcome to hissychick.com

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

Welcome internets, to my new and (hopefully much) improved blog. I will leave you to explore at your leisure, but would love to hear any comments or suggestions that you may have. Provided they are nice, otherwise I’ll pout.
Anyway.
In keeping with my new and improved shiny goodness, I thought I would share some photos […]
