Max showed us two sides today….
The first was when I was downstairs, he came down to see me and said “Daddy all lined up” and grabbed my hand. He took me upstairs and proceeded to show me all the travel books that he had removed from the bookshelf and lined up for my perusal

The second was even funnier (but much harder to clean up!) Max had gone down for his afternoon nap and after about an hour I heard him bawling his eyes out for some reason. I went upstairs to find him sitting on his bed where he had obviously got himself ready for a nappy change. He’d got his changing mat, wipes, a nappy and a tub of nappy rash cream in preparation…… As you can see below he decided to have some fun with a whole tub of cream and the damn stuff was everywhere! It was all over his hands to a thickness of about a quarter of an inch, over his bed clothes, his legs, the clothes he was going to put on, you name it! I had to laugh though Into the bath he went and plenty of washing later he was spic and span.


It wouldn’t be so bad but the damn stuff is water repellent and is proving a sod to get off everything…..

Poor little guy looks so upset! And I’m still laughing! Lining up the books is adorable, too. Did you sit and look at them with him?

I’m glad to see you had your priorities straight and took a photo before doing anything about the mess!

You know, I was just thinking about how upset Max looks and probably knows Dad’s going to get his camera out before helping him. I can see him when he’s 16, and going on his first real date, and says, “Yeah, he’ll be taking pictures before we can leave” to his date. hahaha.
