2yo usually asks for me to sing Rock-a-bye baby as his bedtime song. Tonight he asked for Pink Pony Club

Mediaeval @jonnelledge.bsky.social walking to a fair with his pack animals and pointing out on the undeveloped greenfield sites along the way.

Me, panicked: Are you ok? Have you been sick.
2 yo, beaming with pride: Yeah. I eated it. It's in my belly now.

I’ve automated it so now I don’t have to actively perform the task — I only have to fix it when the automation breaks, which only happens extremely regularly

The delighted yay I heard coming down the stairs makes me think the 2 yo didn't heed my request to head to the bath.

Not saying we've got bedtime sussed, but I managed to rhyme 'story' with 'weewee' for the 6 yo's nonsense poem while the 2 yo threw bouncy balls at my bum and the 3 week old attempted to give me a hickey while searching for milk

Some days you have to accept are the kind of day where your baby is going to repeatedly projectile shit and take out your last 3 clean pairs of jeans.

She's somehow in the same outfit.

One for @cjforms.bsky.social for #FixTheForms.

Can you spot the difference between "other" and "elsewhere" in registering a birth?

Love a guess to why, given we've already ticked yes to married, I can't fill out the form as dad—mam only.

In laws cooked tea for us tonight (kind). MiL looks me dead in the eye and says, "One nice meal for you this week" (fatal).

One of my favorite poems since childhood, and a poem I share every #autumnequinox.
By the 12thc warrior poet Xin Qiji 辛棄疾, sidelined during peacetime, demoted, drifting through a decade of minor posts in remote lands.
Poetry, then, is that which is left unsaid.
“My, what a cool and lovely autumn.”

8 hours waiting in the hospital so far. Wouldn't be bad at all if not for the bed neighbours having ITV4 on full blast for the duration.
