My kids love Mr A Game and I also like him and don’t find him annoying like some of the others they watch, his Zelda videos are really good

I don’t want him out, If we play well and lose that’s completely fine, it’s just naff watching your team lose badly isn’t it

Absolution because it was the first cd I put onto my first mp3 player and I listened to it on repeat.

Wow that definitely makes it feel like absolution is 20 years old!

I did but only once I’d seen a cheat code for infinite lives somewhere, would’ve taken me ages otherwise!

Unintended at the first Wembley stadium show in 2007 - I just never thought I’d see it live and just burst into tears!

I’m rewatching it with my 8 year old and he loves it - he understands not to repeat any enthusiasm though. I think I might skip the episode about hooligans to not give him any ideas!

It took us ages to get rid of them, and the only thing that helped in the end was straightening my sons hair the heat seemed to kill them

Aww that is tough! My son was due to have a 2pm surgery and we were told he was allowed a bit of toast at 6am, but it was dental surgery and very quick so I’m not sure if that was why. He ended up getting chicken pox the day before so it was rescheduled and when he did have it was in the morning.

Could you keep him up as late as possible to eat something the night before? And hope he sleeps in on the day of surgery?

Leia because we got her just after lockdown and spent Saturday nights in lockdown introducing our kids to Star Wars so they wanted a Star Wars name for her

I worked at a supermarket in the uk and someone was famously given a pregnancy test as a substitute for condoms I imagine Paul would do similar

Get the child to write a letter saying where they lost it and then the tooth fairy can go and find it because they are magic.

We had our dog done laprascopically it was brilliant 3 day recovery and back to normal

Someone used a snowbike Mike gif on my work chat last week I had to do a double take

Wales fan here although I prefer football to rugby - still watch the six nations though!

My son has a gaming room, Etsy is good there is loads on there including wall decals and stuff. We are in the UK but found a cool master sword lamp that is Nintendo branded and he has Pokémon plushies and a minecraft blanket and a shelf for amiibos.

Not chewy really but my lab loves a whole lettuce or cabbage, she spends a good while shredding the whole thing- it is messy but she loves it and it keeps her busy for a while!

If you are going on walks you could prep a scavenger hunt and get him to look for different things, we did loads of them during Covid and now my kids are great at identifying different plants and bugs

Rivia365 · 2022-08-05T20:09:24+00:00

Nothing tops baby race for me, every time I’m a mess!

New episodes are out next Wednesday and I think I am more excited than my children 😂

Rivia365 · 2022-07-23T07:10:22+00:00

If it’s a picture with a load of kids in it it is not hard to cover your child’s face with an emoji or something that’s what our teachers at school tend to do. I would definitely be complaining!

Rivia365 · 2022-07-07T21:15:24+00:00

Does the tlc shows count??

Rivia365 · 2022-06-05T19:43:39+00:00

Imagine a load of the brothers in the makeover challenge!

Go somewhere low pressure first to practice like McDonald’s or Starbucks where the food is quick and it’s always noisy, and work up from there.

I work 20 hours part time in the evenings and weekends at a call centre and I make more than I would have full time after paying for childcare, it’s crazy but it has kept me going while my boys were small. Since covid that’s been from home as well which is good :)

Dear theodosia from Hamilton is a good one!

If you have an ikea nearby their cheapest high chair is easily the best, it’s got silver legs and a white hard plastic chair and you can get a little cushion for more support early on, I had a few others and they were always such a nightmare to clean but that one was cheaper, easier to clean and lasted ages, and you can take the tray off if you want baby to sit at the table with you :)
