Everybody Needs Somebody

Minion number two enjoying her recently acquired Princess car. As with all aspiring fashion icons she understands the need to accesorise and has teamed the car with a pair of hello kitty sunglasses and her favourite dummy in homage to the Blues brothers. The fact that she has only figured out how to make the car go backwards detracts from the overall effect somewhat but it keeps her (and us entertained).

As for the rest of the Minions the nicer weather only seems to have brought out their feral streak. Rather than interrupt whatever they are doing to come in and use the toilet the have turned the back of the shed into a makeshift urinal. Understandably this has not gone down well and as a punishment the trampoline has been dismantalled. This does not seem to have deterred them however and when I went in to tidy up Minion number ones bedroom my bare foot discovered a wet patch on the carpet. It turns out that Minion number three had decided to pee in the (wicker) bin. It is worse than having a puppy. At least with a dog you can smack it with a newspaper or rub it's nose in the offending mess. Apparently though social services frown upon using such conditioning with children.



Quote of the day: "The bathroom was just to far away. And anyway she told me to do it" Minion number one, age five.
