One of Tommy's library books is called that's not my train. The basic premise of the story is that's not my train, it's wheels are too shiny; that's not my train, it's funel is too rusty and so on until finally we find his train. Yuri went in to his room earlier to find him reading the book saying "this no no my train" as he read the book, finally ending in "this my train."

We went over to Granny's house today to try and cut his hair. She's still in Brazil so I had to do it. Unfortunately the moment he realised he was going to get his hair cut he started to scream and run away. We sat him on Yuri's lap and managed to get about three clumps of hair shaved off before we had to give up. Luckily the cut bits are hidden by the massive layers around.

cute

I was cooking when he asked me to change him...

So I put the food in the stove and change him quicklly...

Once I'm done with him I run to the kitchen to check on the food...

That takes about 3 minutes...

When I see that things are way to quiet... I go back to his bedroom...

And he is all tucked up in his bed sleeping away!!!!

Is that cute or what????

TB the Railway Engineer... awwwww

Ok, it's been the scariest weekend in a long long time!!!
Sacary because Tommy once again has managed to show us we're getting old!! lol

I can remember the ays where he would not let go of our necks whilst in the swimming pool... Yesteday he not only let go of my neck but he swam the length of the swimming pool... not once but 3 times... both ways... 3 complete laps, one after the other... Not just that, but the amount of time he actually spent holding on to me was REALLY close to 0!!!

If that wasn't enough... He built his own train track with the set he's got for Christmas... used signals, tunels curves... the works! And even set the train in motion himself!!! And we're talking about the same Tommy Boy that could only put the track apart!!! He's growing...

It was just like playing with my race track earlier on this week... (I must say... we had LOADS of fun!!!
I can't stop remembering that little thing with no hair or teeth...

Well.. as I said before... We better start getting back to fitness if we want to keep up witht he boy s he grows... ( I know I am already strugling... lol). Rat Races ... here we gooooo!!! lol

We're househunting again and on thw whole, Tommy's been a little angel tagging along with us (of course we're helped by the fact it's meant lots of train journeys).

Yesterday was a mixed bag. Bonus points to Foxtons for their lovely coffee bar and proper coffee. Points removed for making me go down the local pub to use the bathroom. More points for providing Tommy with one of these to shut him up. Tommy loves running around the empty flats and especially loved the house we saw (shame I didn't). On the downside, he is showing his mother's tendancy for car sickness and having felt his stomach turn, we had to make an emergency stop for him to throw up. But he got on with things and we went off and saw another place after.

And he still loves that car this morning.


And I've just looked at the blog to see that Daddy's said all of this already.

House Hunting...

Yesterday we went out house hunting again... this time to Foxtons. what Tommy didn't particularlly wanted to come out of the house... at least not without his ball... That means I had to carry a very bad tempered little boy all the way to the station. Well... fair enough...

Once we got to the tube he was as good as gold though... And I have to say... he LOVES the overground bit of the District Line going to Wimbledon. absolutelly adored the ride.

Mummy was in the same train we were, just a couple of carriages away, so when we got there we had some time to spare so we went to check on the shopps, and take tommy for a ride on Thomas in one of the malls round there... :)

Once we got to Foxtons we discovered how do they conquest their clients... lol... tommy's got a VERY nice and expensive Mini muniature... a copy of the Foxtons ones (see photo above) and absolutelly fell in love with it... The bribe worked perfectly!! lol. and to the parents... well... expensive bottles of whater, capuccinos, expressos... the works... that while we waited... Excelent service as well...

Apart from being travel sick during the visits he was a little angel!!! To bad this time we didn't find a house that overlooked the train lines!! lol...

Good ones, but we keep on looking... at least Tommy enjoyed the ride... and his new ride (the Mini). lol!!!

Chat soon!!

Sausage

Daddy - Here's your Breakfest Tommy. Onange (orange) and Aple! Hummmm

Tommy fusses arround a little bit, puts his little finger in the plate and revolts the contents of it... then looks at daddy with a very disapointed face.

Tommy - No Sausage???

And puts the plate away...

Sausage... yeap... that's the word of the moment... and tommy is absolutelly addicted to sausage!!! He has to have sausage with everything... Can you believe that???

OMG... lol!!!

Yesterday Tommy threw a temper tantrum because I'm the kind of cruel and heartless mother who won't let him watch Thomas the Tank Engine at 2:30 in the morning when we should ALL be asleep.

His 1st Bike!

Tommy's got his 1st bike (well... trike) last week. vovoh bought it for him. And I have to say it he LOVED it... well... 1st day on it doesn;t count because he hadn's gona swimming in ages so he spent only 20 minutes on the trike and then trown a tantrum because he wanted do go swimmmmm...

But now he soesn't leave de trike... whenever he's home he's on top of it...

cute kid... Ah... and he likes mountain biking... can't wait till he's bigger so we can go expeditioning!!!! yayyyyyy!!! :)

Chat soon!!!

Tube Map

The boy knows what a tube map is when he sees one... and no one ever told him!!!
Is that smart or what?!?!!?!?!?!?!

We were going to curch last friday the he pointed to the map and said chuchu trains!! lol

Ok, it might be because of the New CBBies animation show (underground ernie), he loves it... well he actually loves anything that has to do with trains really...

We wached Valiant yesterday, and guess what bit he liked the most?!?!?! The bit they fly near the train.. lol... well... hehehe

Gotta run!

For Christmas Tommy got a money box but we'd put it away because it was china and we didn't want him breaking it. The other day we got it out because he was hoarding a few coins and he loves it.

Yesterday morning he was pointing to the box (which is on a high shelf) and asking me to get it down. At first I didn't realise that was what he wanted, until I saw some coins in his hand. It puzzled me a bit as to where he got them from. That was, until I saw Yuri's wallet opened on Tommy's table. The monkey had gone into the wallet to get coins for his money box. We'd better watch out - he's gonna want pocket money next.
