Introducing baby Milo to Zeal & Ardor via the London live show on Youtube.
Overall he seems to like it, but still a little confused by double-kick drums

We've got a slightly deflated trex balloon just floating around our living room right now. It's been here all evening. Neither of us have commented on it being there, it's just...you know, #ParentThings.

Today sucked. My toddler was upset when I left for work, which made my day even more shit than I'd expected.
However. Upon arriving home some ten hours later I was greeted by the largest scream of joy I'd ever heard, followed by the patter of tiny feet running from one side of the house to the other whilst simultaneously hearing 'Dadddddy hooome' and yeah, that was cool.

Ten minutes after putting him down for a nap. I had the nerve to believe for just one tiny second.
I. Am. Going. To. Have. A. Good. Day.

Determined that today is going to be a good day. No crying. No breakdown. Just me, being a good dad and trying to enjoy the mayhem.
Here we go.

Both kids screaming because they didn't want Daddy to do their respective bedtimes this evening. Feels super great.

I didn't want a repeat of last weekend, so I came into this one with the best of intentions. We're gonna go out, we're gonna have fun, weather be damned.
It's 8am. I spent last night on the floor on my daughter's room. I'm absolutely gassed already.
My two year old has spent the first two hours of his day whining like you wouldn't believe.
My partner is going to work in an hour.
So yeah. Today's starting strong.

Took lil'man out to the softplay with his cousins. Watching him bounce around like a ragdoll (whilst smiling his little face off) on the trampoline whilst his cousin and sister jumped up and down has made my week.

You ever put your toddler down and know that they're probably going to have a very rare bedtime shit? Tonight is one of those nights. Man's been farting like you wouldn't believe.

My favourite thing about being a parent is how "It'll get easier" and "oh but you wouldn't change them for the world".
Really does lighten the mental and physical load of being a parent doesn't it.
Like, suddenly the crushing weight of responsibility and stresses around money, time, relationships just float away.

I take my toddler to a soft-play on Monday mornings. It's good to see him playing with the other kids and interacting the world around him.
This of course means that I do have to go to a soft-play on a Monday morning. Unfortunately I hate having to interact with the other adults, and the world around me.

First night away from the kids for 6 years....and we're both sat here a little unsure what to do and kinda thinking about going home to make sure our youngest is okay.

Lil' man has been awake since before 5am, but has decided to make the brave decision to forgo his daily nap in favour of.... trying to climb into the tumble dryer.

Nothing like attending a softplay that's overlooked by a gym to make you feel every inch the bloated, overweight mess you've become.

Dunno about you but as a parent who really struggles to get their kids to brush their teeth properly, I kinda love the idea of some state instituted in-school teeth brushing program for primary school kids.
You don't wanna brush them properly? Godspeed kid, Mrs Wilson isn't gonna wanna hear that but you go with god.

Safe in the knowledge that my own brain will ruin this for me, I just wanted to let it be known that I've had my best weekend for a while, and I did it all by myself.
Kids have been tiring but amazing, my own head hasn't dragged me down and I feel like I've been both a good version of myself, and a good dad simultaneously.
Gotta enjoy the good days right? This weekend has been some of those.

Day 14,000. My eldest is still off on her christmas break.
Rudolph and his cohort passed from memory. Mr and Mrs Clause are wrapped up under the covers and Cheeky Elf is holidaying in the Everglades.
Meanwhile. My daughter is still off School.

The stress and anxiety that comes from trying to organise a kids birthday party.
Why do we do it to ourselves?

Today.
What I want to do: Settle down with some Videogames and my book.
What I will actually do: Spent the next 10 hours solo-parenting two little kids who absolutely do not want to me settle down with some videogames and my book.

After kids at Christmas: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

The thing you don't understand about having kids, before you have kids is that (and I'm not being hyperbolic here) they're always sick.
There's always a cough, a bug, a virus or a rash. Even when you think you're okay they'll wake up at 10pm complaining that something hurts that they've failed to mention all day.
And then when you add a second or third into the mix, oh boy buckle up.
