Well, those folks at cow and gate did a survey of things a toddler should do before they are 3. Its called a Potty List, and 1000 Mums were asked what should be on it.
Some lovely things on there - picking fruit, jumping in puddles, being chased by a monster, climbing a big hill, riding on Daddys shoulders......, all nice things but, as toddler twins of the world, we decided they were a bit too tame so we now present our alternative Potty List!!
Managing to get our toys to actually play on the DVD player
Getting our hands on all the things we have managed to post behind the skirting board
Actually managing to climb into the oven (or 'burn' as we thought it was called)
Scaling the Christmas tree - never mind the one at home, a nice shop one will do!
Breaking the record for Jelly throwing
Doing anything Special agent Oso does (jet pack activated)
Managing to eat a whole plate of cheese (cut the rationing out Mummy!)
Having our attempts at painting the kitchen recognised as a work of art
Actually managing to hit Daddys head when randomly flinging bricks
Get Mummy to realise that the curtains really ARE a jungle vine
Be allowed to pretend we are a doggy ALL day - those biccies really are yummy!
We are sure we can think of many more, but hey ho, its a start!
And for all the people who'd like to see what the original Potty list was a version can be found here www.growingupmilkinfo.com .
Inspired by parents nationwide, and endorsed by nutritionist Amanda Ursell, psychologist Dr Richard Woolfson and trends forecaster Sean Pillot de Chenece, www.growingupmilkinfo.com has released a ‘bucket list’ following suggestions from parents nationwide and endorsed by experts, that includes 36 top activities for ‘Little One-ders’
Off to make some inroads into our list!!

Happy 2012!!
We know.....it's been a while! Let's say we've been up to our eyes in Santa and the like. Who would have guessed this time of year was soooo exciting!
We had some great pressies - a little sit on car each so we can practice running each other over, haring up and down the kitchen and generally creating more mayhem! Lots of educational toys - although we still believe we can educate ourselves much better with examining the contents of the fridge/cupboards/reprogramming the washing machine.... And of course, lots of great clothes and other toys.
New Year resolutions - well, to have as much fun as last year, Mummy would like us to get over our 'stranger' phobia so she could at least do one aisle of Tesco without us bellowing the place down, and of course, to get up and never mind walking, running! Now that will be fun!
Hope your 2012 is a good one xx
PS - Mummy is on twitter and would love some more followers - @nappycakequeen is her name!
