Forget golden, silence is dangerous!

'A silent toddler is like an unexploded bomb!'

Which is why we probably should have been more aware of the imminent carnage likely to ensue as Joshua quietly amused himself in the front room recently. Sure enough on closer inspection the reason for his tacet enjoyment was the fact he had purloined some contraband - namely some baby oil - which he was liberally emptying around the room!

Still, on a more 'constructive' note, Joshua had his first visit to the dentist this week. And thankfully, he didn't need too much done?!

Unfortunately the same couldn't be said for his trip to the hairdresser - he needed taming! Exhibit 'A' (which is dedicated to my doubting mother-in-law!) demonstrates the resultant scalping!
