Funny you should mention that...I spent a couple of hours this morning honing my woodworking skills. I would like to build a really nice crib. That way we can personalize it and know that quality materials were used. I'm starting by building a bookshelf. See how that turns out and go from there. Need a bookshelf because we've already started a library for the baby. There's a store downtown that sells hardcover versions of classics for children. Picked up copies of: The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Winnie the Pooh, Oh, the Places You'll Go, and Where the Sidewalk Ends. 2 hours ago, jillar said: I don't know...when I was a kid and had been playing around the pond, my dad would spray me down with a garden hose before I went in the house. He convinced me it was like a car wash...I thought it was all good fun. And just look how I turned out...
November 17, 20196 yr Author @Boo when I was a kid my mom hosed us down when she saw us arguing outside lol. Oh and of course being muddy was a given lol
November 17, 20196 yr On hot days we used to run under the hose in our knickers...oh how times have changed. Love that you have a library started for BB... You have to get some of the Hairy McClary books...I read slinky malinky so many times I can say it by rote.

Oops...my Bad, Peter and The Wolf narrated by Ustinov Where is the Green Sheep is an Aussie kids picture book. Other great classics are Wombat Stew, The Rainbow Serpant. .... omg and you have to have Ticki Ticki Tembo .... that is great. Mr. Archimedes Bath .... because its never too early for scientific principles. Animalia by Graeme Bass and all the other books...actually these are brilliant. Bamboozled... the kid thought this was about her and her Grandad.
