Contraband

Danger's my middle name, Daddy.

Lulu is her own worst enemy and we're rather thankful for it.

She is drawn, like the proverbial moth to a flame, to any and all items that could cause her harm. She has some kind of internal danger radar that will filter out all safe items in the room and locate the most dangerous object.

Her downfall however is that, after she has locked on to her target, and starts to make her way towards the contraband whether it be hot coffee/open stairgate/flame thrower she lets out a slightly maniacal laugh. Thus the game is up. Even if we haven't been observing her approach to said deadly thing, as soon as we hear her mischievous chuckle we know action is required.

Hopefully, she won't learn to keep shtum...

Welcome to Daddy Snash

The inaugural post for my new blog probably won't make the most interesting of reads but I'm going to run with it for now and see how it goes.
My thinking behind starting this blog is two-fold; firstly I'm keen on documenting my experiences of fatherhood if only for my own future reference. If, however, the blog strikes a chord with folks out there then that would be a happy bonus.
The second reason for the blog is a bit of a tech experiment as I'm going to try and keep this blog going using primarily my new HTC Sensation handset. I'm not necessarily going to stick to this plan but for now it's quite convenient.
Anyways, I'll leave you now with a photo of me with my biggest achievement, my daughter Lulu.
Speak soon,
Michael
