That's my boy

This was Jamie last night. He may have been upside down, but at least he was in his pyjamas and in his own bed.  This was in total cont...

Fish on a Friday

Like everyone else, I've had a few bizarre experiences in my life. (In truth, I have one every morning when I look in the mirror). Ha...

Can babies go in the hold?

›
My mum and hubby Derek left ours earlier today after a week in Yorkshire. She loves Jamie as much as ever. But, on this trip, I kind of...

Dirty...clean

My day didn't get off to the best of starts today after Jamie vomited on my bag. Thanks for that son.  But, whilst it is now in nee...

Who loves you, hair?

Here's a shocker. My mum and new hubby Derek are over this week and, hopefully, having a good time.   But tonight she floored me. ...

Honk if you've got no teeth

Charlotte - seen here sucking on a chip - is teething at the moment and, personally, I can't wait for her new gnashers to appear.  No...

On the twelfth day, it came to pass

It took God six days to build the world but, in 12 days, I believe I've proven you can do twice as much. Yes, our living room is comp...

I'm forever cursing bubbles

It's now day 10 of my living room decorating adventure, and the novelty has long since worn off. Not that I think you're surprised. ...

Hair, hair

Not that my ongoing decorating saga is affecting my sanity or anything but, last night, I thought it might be fun to fluff up Charlotte...

Have you ever wished you'd never started something?

You may or may not be old enough to remember Petrocelli . If you weren't, I should explain that Petrocelli was an American TV drama s...

Methinks someone's milking it

I noticed these milk bottles almost literally piled up outside our back door earlier tonight. So I mentioned it to Vanessa (it's occa...

Steaming

The good news is that I've now finished the wallpaper stripping.  The bad news is that I haven't.  In fact, I'm only half way...

I'm having a riot

My DIY week isn't going as well as I'd hoped. Or, to put it another way, it's going just as badly as I'd feared. To sum...

NOT gone on holiday

"Blind" man's guff

Toy Story 3 (lampshades)

Jamie has developed a Toy Story fetish, resulting in his new bedroom being turned into something resembling a shrine to the trilogy.  How...

The hole story

About Me

My photo
Barry White
Coleraine and Guiseley, United Kingdom
Born in Belfast in 1972, I'm now 53 years old and therefore getting on a bit. My wife Vanessa and I met whilst we were both working in London in 1997. Six years later we took the momentous decision to move North to Leeds where Vanessa grew up. And in 2005 we were married. Other than passing my driving test - which I eventually did in 2024 - becoming a father was one of the few things I hadn't yet done (honestly) that I quite fancied a go at. This blog is aimed at keeping you informed about how I am doing. Oh, and I also bang on about some other stuff too. Quite a lot of other stuff. I try to make it funny because, if I don't, you won't come back. And there's nothing worse than talking to yourself.
