I thought it was about time we had another one of these.

Mine is in the garden, eating a sausage, kicking a beach ball around and singing "One boy and his sausage, went to mow the world..."

Seeing who can bounce the ball the highest in the living room!

franny - and of the garden.

ds has gone for a walk with dh to look at the sheep in a nearby field - leaving me to flit between the balcony and MN to try and take my mind off things.

DS1 is pretending his beaker is a plane and DS2 is climbing on the dining chairs again! They are both covered in tomato ketchup and neither have trousers on

Rhubarb · 08/07/2006 17:58

ds is wandering around with a pair of very dangerous, sharp scissors. Actually no, he's hidden them and now dh is asking where they are.

dd is watching telly with a doll on her knee wrapped up in a teatowel.

WigWamBam · 08/07/2006 17:58

Dd is out in the garden helping dh with the weeding - I'm just trying to get her in for a bath (and could be some time!).

saadia · 08/07/2006 18:01

Ds1 is playing with his cousin at MIL's - although by all accounts he is feeling a bit down (has diarrhoea, recovering from some sort of bug). Ds2 is sleeping after having vomited five times today (think it's his turn to get the bug), but he is clutching his little Brum car which I bought him to cheer him up.

one is lurking to go on runescape the other is asleep after partying hard!

notagrannyyet · 08/07/2006 18:12

DS3 has just come back from a tennis tournament and is now on runescape.DS4 is at a party. DS5 moaned all afternoon because he had no one to play with. I have given in and let him have the play station.

Earlybird · 08/07/2006 18:19

DD is playing on the computer while she waits for her food to be ready. Very low key day needed here - too many end of term activities/parties recently!

mazzystar · 08/07/2006 18:22

I'm delighted to say that I haven't got a clue, other than he's off on a boy's own adventure with his dad and his dad's best mate from school.

dds are watching the telly post-eating tea (well, they are both eating apples just now). ds is crawling around on the floor bashing himself on the head with an empty coke bottle and giggling

gettingthere · 08/07/2006 18:35

My sister is round and causing mayhem!!!!! Lots of loud music and drumming and laughing and shouting. If it doesn't stop soon then I'll be telling her to take the two of them home with her. (I wish)

gladbag · 08/07/2006 18:37

Ds (2.5) is upstairs with dh, thundering around while getting ready for his bath. I don't know what they get up to, but they make a lot of noise and ds always tells me very seriously "Go downstairs mummy. I play wid Daddy now," (which really means "Bog off and let us get on with the proper rough and tumble that you spoil by constantly saying "Dh, be careful"......)

stoppinattwo · 08/07/2006 18:55

Glad you asked

DD is running around with an ASDA bag between her butt cheeks-laughing hystrically

DS it trying to do his homework.

Now that youve asked Id beter go and extract the ASDA Bag

HonorMatopoeia · 08/07/2006 18:56

Running around in her nappy sucking a tea towel and not looking at all sleepy!

foxinsocks · 08/07/2006 18:56

mine are just in bed - we have been out all day today (since 8.30!) and they are absolutely dead on their feet - normally they chat for ages once I put them in bed but tonight, there is not even one little peep!

stoppinattwo · 08/07/2006 18:57

Anyone want an ASDA bag?????

biglips · 08/07/2006 19:00

just finished her double choc mini muffin and she is sitting in the highchair talking to her ninny

mawbroon · 08/07/2006 19:00

Mine passed out 4 minutes ago when I layed him in his cot.

MrsGerrard · 08/07/2006 19:00

Watching doctor who

NomDePlume · 08/07/2006 19:04

DS1 - on his PC playing Runescape and chatting endlessly on MSN

DS2 - Downstairs watching the Simpsons, before he gets up and helps DH with the post dinner washing up (I've done half already).

DD - Downstairs watching the Simpsons before her bath.

(I'm upstairs filling DD's bath and DH is on the sofa spread out complaining because his back has gone....)

tissy · 08/07/2006 19:09

watching dr who- she is 4! It's Ok Dad is with her, and he says that she loves it!

BettySpaghetti · 08/07/2006 19:12

Have just put DS in his cot so hes probably clutching his favourite toy to his chest with his thumb in his mouth.

DD is in her room having her bedtime story with DP

(I'm supposed to cleaning up the kitchen )

fullmoonfiend · 08/07/2006 19:27

tissy - mine too, though feel so guilty as ds2 (8.5) has never watched it before. Think everyone at school has been talking about it and he got terribly forceful about watching it
