Dom and the Advent Calendar

Christmas countdown begins today! What better way to prepare than with a Pooh calendar and chocolate.











So now that he knows there chocolate behind the pop-out flaps, how long will the rest of the calendar survive?

Why am I having visions of finding a shredded calendar and a Dominic smeared in chocolate lying next to it on the floor?

The Solace of Ice Cream

Dom was definitely suffering from a case of the 'Mondays' today. He fell over and bumped his head at gym, his mother served him displeasing foods, then she tried to make him have a nap and played the wrong show on the DVD player. Worst of all, there was another kid on his swing when he arrived at the playground.

There was only one thing that had the power to eliminate the grumps.

An M&M Trumpet Ice Cream.



Mmm. Delicious creamy ice cream, chocolate sauce and mini M&Ms in a yummy waffle cone...



When the ice cream melts, you can use the remaining cone as a cup.



He may have smeared ice cream all over his face and hands but we both considered it worth it.
