The joys of breakfast time

[lathany]

Beatrice : Mummy, I want to go for a crawl.

Me : Not now, Bea, I'm trying to change your nappy.

Beatrice : But Mummy, I want to crawl !

Me : I've already told you to wait until I've dressed you.

Bea : MUMMY ! You're mean and horrible and nasty.

Me : BEA ! NO.

Bea : WAAAHHH ! WAAAAHHHH !

Ryan (from playpen) : Keep it down can't you ? I'm trying to figure out how to make the Humpty work.

Bea : WAAAHHH ! WAAAAHHHH ! WWWAAAAAAAAHHHHHH !

* Ryan hits the snail *

Musical snail : "Old Macdonald had a farm..."

Ryan : Where's the volume switch on this thing ? I can still hear her.

Bea : Hmmph.

* Much sulking from Beatrice *

Me : Only eight more days...
