I'd like to say I don't laugh every time I look at these photos from today. Unfortunately, that would be a lie.
Pic 1: Look Mummy, it's snow! It's so exciting! Let's go and play!
Pic 2: Come on Mummy, keep up!
Pic 3: Oh dear…
Pic 4: Ouch.

I like the fact that you left poor flea lying there while you took another photo! Hilarious. Have to admit, I would have done the same. Blog fodder is always at the back of my mine!
Course I did!
My pathetic excuse is that it was soft snow on grass and Flea was wearing so many layers she didn’t feel a thing. Probably.
I love this…. When I took Poppy out (her first real snow that she’s seen) she just sat on the ground and ate it. we don’t call her Gutsy Gillham for nothing.
Back to parenting school for you forthwith!
😉
Hilarious, brilliant pix
It is funny though, and you just cant help but laugh, although different matter it I was to fall and they laugh at me!!!!!
Ha! Brilliant. Not that I would have done the same of course you disgraceful mother you… ahem…
I see you missed out the shot in between where you felled her with a well aimed snowball…
I’d have done exactly the same. Bad Mummy, Bad Mummy!!
Brilliant
I’m pretty sure my parents actually used to orchestrate situations like this for their own sick amusement…
I would’ve done exactly the same!
Yep, I’d have done the same only followed it up by pelting her with snowballs – gotta keep them down!!
Ahem – only it was me that fell today and my 3 yr old boy who was sat in the sledge I was pulling along said: “Come on Mummy, get up, I’m getting cold!” – only for me to be helped up by a couple of yummy young men – life is good after all 🙂
HA! Naughty Mummy – but funny!
Awwwww bless (afraid I have similar ones of Toddlergirl from today …)
I’m reassured I’m not the only person who finds small people falling over deeply amusing.
And @Dawn – how did you know??? Spooky.
@Nikki – oh no! I fell over last winter dropping Flea at pre-school. Lesson learned: snow + converse = bad idea!
Love it! Although it’s much better if it’s a teenager (not thinking about my teen daughter in dolly shoes treking through local park, slipping on her bum – sadly no camera though!!!) BAD MUM!! MXX
I’d have been the same … I drive my kids nuts with the camera!!
Haha! Yes, I would have laughed too…
