The Secret Diary of a 2 Year Old


MONDAY
Was licking the door handle in Costa so Daddy shouted across the shop, ‘I’VE TOLD YOU BEFORE, SON - GET THAT KNOB OUT YOUR MOUTH’ but then instantly covered his mouth like he was trying to push the words back in. Mummy broke down into some weird hysterical laughing fit. Daddy went bright red. I went back to licking the door handle. Everyone was staring. My parents are dickheads.

TUESDAY
Old droopy bollocks gave me the ‘just-because-YOU’RE-awake-doesn’t-mean-it’s-the-morning’ lecture today. Listen, pal - I don’t give two flat white shites what YOU call morning. In my book, the minute your kecks are soaked in piss then it’s time to pour the cornflakes.



WEDNESDAY
The baby gate has gone! Years of tyranny and oppression are finally behind us. All hail the new age of Freedom!

THURSDAY
Another baby gate has arrived! This is BULLSHIT.

FRIDAY
We were very late leaving the house this morning and everyone was stressed so it seemed like the perfect time to wheel my huge ice cream cart into the middle of the kitchen and flee the scene. My only regret is that I was already in the car by the time Daddy ran back into the house to grab his lunch and ploughed through it like a wannabe stuntman on work experience. Sounded horrific though lol.

SATURDAY
Was told I shouldn’t run into the road as ‘cars may hit me.’ It’s health and safety gone mad.

SUNDAY
Those John Lewis Christmas adverts make you think it’s this magical place but let me tell you, it’s the absolute worst gaff to fill your pants. We ended up in their super modern ‘Parent’s Room’ (basically a production line of arse changing mats) and everything’s fine until I decide I’d very much like to continue the shopping trip without any trousers. Mummy says this isn’t really the done thing but I contest this by kicking her in the tit and now we’re in a struggle as she tries to use the appropriate force legally allowed to dress an objectionable toddler as other families wait to use the mats. I manage to get purchase on Mummy’s chin with my foot and somehow push my head off the top end of the mat, knowing that there’s no chance she’ll get those pants on me now. I discoverer there’s a sink next to my mat and now my head is hanging into the bowl so I start faffing about with the tap but it’s only a bastard automatic one isn’t it so the cold water comes on and fucking covers me so I quickly bolt upright to get out the way but twat my head on the tap that’s still pissing water all over me. Put that on your Christmas advert. Pricks.

The Secret Diary of a 23 Month Old (Part 36)

MONDAY It really boils my piss when the Big People laugh at my tantrums. I know to them it probably appears that I’m just losing my shit at every possible opportunity but they must understand, different things matter to me. I’m not an adult. I don’t have a career or a mortgage. My teeth are killing and my only proper friends are my relatives so when you sing the wrong verse to Old McDonald it totally feels like the end of the world to me. TUESDAY Watched a brilliant video on Mummy’s phone of some kids dancing into their Daddy’s room when he was having a meeting. If my Daddy ever has a conversation anywhere near that important I’m definitely going to do the same. Those kids are an inspiration. WEDNESDAY Went to the park but they wouldn’t let me off those stupid reins. Kept telling me it was just my special ‘Big Boy Bag’ I had to wear. What kind of bag has a big fuck-off lead attached to it? I’m not stupid you know. And anyway, I only wanted to run down the hill and across...

#30: The 12 Different Types of Nappy

Opening your baby’s nappy is like a box of chocolates – you never know what you’re going to get and you’ll probably end up with sticky fingers. My twin boys are 10 weeks old and these are the 12 types of nappy I’ve encountered so far. (If you’re eating your dinner I recommend reading this a bit later on.) 1.The Leak (AKA The Pooseidon Adventure ) It’s everywhere except in the nappy itself. Worse still, it’s leaving a trail. If Hansel and Gretel had a leaking baby with them the story would’ve ended happily. This type makes me actually doubt gravity. How can something that goes down end up on their shoulder? If it wasn't so gross you'd stand up and applaud. Unfortunately you can’t even enjoy the irony of removing a sleepsuit with bum juice up the back and ‘Too Cute’ across the front. (There are many causes of The Leak , one of which I covered in it’s full gory detail here. ) 2.The Tardis (AKA The Turdis , The Doctor Poo ) This is when the amount of was...

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...
