I’m on a narrow backstreet near the shops waiting for someone in front of me to reverse parallel park. this dude in a huge land rover coming the other way chooses to go down the street then starts gesturing at me.. who was there first.. and stopped… for being in his way

i’m trying to play on the floor with baby and get her to roll and mabel is continuously trying to lick her face. i swear she just does it now for attention. it’s infuriating that i can never have a moments peace

Met a friend at Radio Mexico and had tacos and a pineapple margarita. I decided to walk there as loading and unloading the pram and finding parking is kind of a pain. was pleasant all round!

I read this expression that was something like don’t try to entertain a happy baby. as in, if they’re ok don’t blow up the situation by trying to add more. think it applies to dogs too. Mabel is having a rare nap on my lap and i feel guilty as she’s only been out once today. she’s fine!

feel like my patience is rock bottom some days. this morning has been like.. feed baby, she grizzles and doesn’t take it, wait for her to fall asleep, she won’t do try to have a shower with her awake, starts screaming so i have to jump out, baby falls asleep on me sitting half dressed and wet hair

after grizzling with tiredness all morning naturally the baby falls asleep ten minutes before i need to leave the house. i have to say the grizzling infuriates me. just sleep or don’t but stop the grizzling. and i know i know it’s normal but for once I’d like to shower uninterrupted by crying

I took Mabel to the beach this morning and she’s come home running around like an absolute loon. Tilly is watching and grinning from here to ear. I can only conclude she enjoys chaos.
