Hold The Phone

Okay. Sarah and Jessica have gotten into the habit of answering the phone when it rings! Now, this may sound cute, but bear in mind they're only three and a half and have all the phone ettiqutte of a mime artist (ie. none!). It's only cute the first couple of times, but then if somebody rings to tell you to get out of the house because a 747 airliner is about to crash on top of you, and all you hear is, "Hello, I'm watching Barbie!.." then either we start putting the phone out of reach or we start drilling them in phone-speak! Either way, they're growing up way too fast! I still remember being chuffed when the first words out of their mouths was "Da-da!"! Of course, that means, daddy! Lill is still miffed about that one! I'm now working on Emma to say "Da-da"...

Yes yes, I know, who are the real children in this family!!??

ODD SPOT: It takes food seven seconds to go from the mouth to the stomach via the esophagus.

P.S: Take three seconds off for curry...!!!
