Bean on the bus
Good thing? Bad thing?
Not sure how I feel about the fact that Bean knows how to navigate around and play angry birds.. sign of the times, I guess.
Yaaaaaaay!!
This morning, Bean woke up at 7:40 (yay #1) and went to the bathroom on his own. When he saw me, he told me to go back to bed (yay #2) cause he was going for a wee then he was going back to bed, allright? (yay #3). He only stayed in there for 5 minutes, but still, overall, woohoo!!!!
Just a regular Thursday morning
Why? What happened? Who’s that?
Those are Bean’s favourite questions at the moment and they seem to come, rapid-fire and nonstop, out of his mouth with military precision.
DRIVING ME NUTS!!!!!!!
Chatty Bean
I have just been told by Bean that we need to take a holiday by the seaside so he can go on a boat and eat blue ice cream. Also, his stuffed polar bear needs to come along because it likes to swim in the ocean.
Conversation with Bean
Bean: That’s not pork, that’s pig!
Me: Is it nice?
Bean: Ya!
Me: I’m happy you like my pig.
Bean: I’m happy to eat it!
I doubt that my son will ever be a vegetarian…
My son…
On Monday, as we were making our way to the bus to go home and cutting through the EBI as per our usual shortcut, Bean passed in front of a table laden with nibbles for a course that was being held in the IT training room. He grabbed two nachos “to eat on the bus” and walked all the way to the bus stop proudly displaying his stolen loot to anybody who would look at it. When we got to the bus stop, he just plopped himself on the ground and started munching. The pose is classic.
Weekend in pictures
The weekend went fairly well. On Saturday, we had Currys deliver our new washer and dryer, which means that we can now do laundry at the same rate that the beans generates it and, joy of joys, drying it in a proper tumble dryer means that it’s not only dry in half the time of our old condenser dryer, clothing actually comes out dry and not just steamy! Plumbing and plugging everything went smoothly and we’re now up to date with the laundry. It’s the simple joys of life… We went to Tesco to get some supplies and Bean helped me make pasta sauce. Well, I chopped vegetables and he ate them, but he was a good boy while I did that so it kinda counts as helping.
On Sunday, we went to the miniature railway in Saffron Walden and let the Bean loose in Audley End. We managed to sneak in between bouts of rain, and it was a good way to let the child blow off some steam.



The railway was surprisingly good fun, and a fairly long ride. It’s really cool to see all that they’ve done along the way with all the stuffed toys, and we saw tons of pheasants. All in all, several hours of happy Bean for little money. Good deal, that.
