Yay…it’s December!!!!! The kids have their Advent calenders out and Christmas carols are playing. Lights and decorations are going to go up this weekend. However, our fake tree is going to sit in it’s box unopened thanks to KiKi who insists on “tasting” everything that’s around. Bit and bobs I’ve fished out of her mouth recently: lego, newspaper, onion peel, a piece of plastic (I shudder to think where the rest of this object is – in her tummy maybe???), yarn, some… Read more »
