5 Things I Learned as a Parent This Week #50

1.The most utterly pointless thing I've ever done is clean the floor.

2.With kids you are never 'ON TIME', merely 'NOT LATE YET'.

3.It's easier to eat soup with a fork than herd multiple toddlers in the same direction.

4.There's been more head banging in our house this week than a Black Sabbath gig.

5.I've never taken acid but I have watched In The Night Garden.

We're all just a product of our environment, and Jessica Simpson is from Texas, where everything is (reportedly) bigger. Jessica certainly prefers replica handbags uk of a certain size, even as mini and micro bags remain one of the market's biggest trends. I don't think I've ever seen Jessica Simpson carry a mini bag of any make, and if I did, it would actually be pretty jarring. Jessica usually goes for the biggest size available in any particular style, despite having a security detail that would happily carry all of her valuables if required. All that being said, I took a long look at The Many Bags of Jessica Simpson from way back in 2012, and she's actually reined in her penchant for oversized miu miu outlet for bags ever so slightly. Her giant designer handbag picks are now perhaps 15% less giant than the gargantuan totes she favored 3 or 4 years ago. Progress? Here's Jessica leaving a photo shoot in NYC with a beautiful black and white Balenciaga Belt Bag. Other celebs don't seem to favor this tote as much as Jessica does, and I suspect its large size may be to blame. Paps spotted Jessica carrying this two-tone CĂ©line All Soft Bag on one of her many annual trips to LAX with her husband Eric Johnson. Jessica is not one for bag repetition, even at the airport. Jessica really loves the new Fendi Peekaboos, and owns several of the most recent models. Here she is leaving the Greenwich Hotel in NYC with an eye-catching multi-colored calf hair version accented with a green Fendi Bag Bug, of course. And here she is leaving another Manhattan hotel around the holidays last year with an even more colorful mulberry replica handbags, accessorized with a totally different Fendi Bag Bug. This is a very recent shot of her carrying a new calfskin leather version with leather whipstitching at JFK. In other recent Jessica Simpson fashion news: she's been wearing a surprising amount of fur lately. Here's Jessica heading into Barneys in NYC with a gorgeous black leather and suede Givenchy Easy Tote. She may have acquired that last Fendi Peekaboo on this very trip.Finally, here's one last parting shot of Jessica and Eric hand-in-hand at LAX. She has chosen a striped Valentino My Rockstud Tote for this particular airport excursion. As you can probably deduce for yourself, this louis vuitton replica handbags design is notable for its distinct lack of Rockstuds.

The Time I Screamed at my Kids

Before my kids arrived I swore I’d never shout at them. But choosing how to approach parenthood before your kids are born is like a caterpillar deciding what kind of butterfly they’re gonna be while they’re still building the cocoon. ‘I’ll still do loads of charity work, of course. And I’ll be REALLY nice to moths too, even though they’ll probably hate me because I’ll be so bloody gorgeous.’ Theory and reality are like sugar and shit. I’ve raised my voice to my kids more times than I can count. Often just to shout ‘STOP SHOUTING!’ which I’m aware doesn’t set a great example. ‘You should NEVER shout at your kids.’ And that’s fine. In theory. Because everything’s fine in theory. The Slimfast diet is a piece of piss until day two when you’ve had three hours sleep and someone offers you a Wagon Wheel. Of course, I never WANT to shout at them. I love them more than words can describe. But those you love are also the ones blessed with the innate ability to boil your piss q

We Have a Winner!

Ladies and gentlemen - some news! One recipient of my newsletter is now the 'lucky' (ahem) winner of an exclusive gig from me IN THEIR HOUSE! And that person is... Lyn Morter!  Well done, Lyn! (Btw, if anyone from  Ofcom  is reading, you can check the legitimacy of this result via the  Facebook Live video  I did last week.) When I informed Lyn that she'd won she simply said, 'I've never heard of you' and 'How did you get my phone number?' so I'm sure that will be a great gig for everyone. (Only joking. She was thrilled.) Thanks to all of you for entering. But what now, Sam?  I hear you screaming at your smartphones. Well, I'll be taking things a wee bit easier through August, spending some much needed time with my family after all the touring. But just like that former Governor of California of Austrian descent, I'LL BE BACK (sorry) in September with more blogs, videos and general waffle.  I'm also heading b

The Time I Smeared Shit on the Duvet

My wife and I developed our parenting systems through trial and error. One of the earliest rules we’d introduced was that if it was after 5am and one of the babies became unsettled, we wouldn’t waste our time trying to get them back down in their cot - we’d just bring them in with us. After a nice cuddle in our bed, they’d normally settle back down, barring the occasional impromptu fanny gouge or affable bollock kick. (Babies are the most violent sleepers on the planet, easily capable of committing GBH in the middle of reaching for their dummy.) Our twins were six months old. I was fast asleep. At least, the deepest sleep you can get once your kids arrive. My pre-kids sleep used to be the nocturnal equivalent of deep sea diving. Nowadays I’m lucky if I can submerge my toes in a puddle. Early on, my sleep was lighter than a Ryvita biscuit who’d been having it off with a helium canister they’d met on Tinder. Everything woke me up. Some nights I’d just lie there, bewi
