How can a child be so cute, yet so infuriating at the same time? Dubz has had a rough week. He hasn’t gotten enough sleep and has thrown tantrums most afternoons. And then today, after brunch, he just went a little crazy and was hitting, and sitting on the floor holding my leg, fighting his sister, and trying to sit in the middle of the road. We were out with friends, and it makes it so much tougher to catch up when you’re navigating bad behaviour. And then we got home, feeling frazzled and stressed.
But here he is in the photos, looking adorable. We were at London’s Southbank, which has these fab orange benches dotted around. Maybe not great for sitting, but pretty cool. And Dubz was smiling and posing like he was in the best mood. And you would think he was the most amiable child. But not when he is sleep-deprived. *deep sigh*

Mine wouldn’t be able to resist a play on those seats. I do love the South Bank, there is always something to catch your eye.
Heh, our three can be like that too. They can be fighting one minute, then stop long enough for me to get a photo of them playing together, and then the next minute they’re bickering again. Sigh.
Ahh! Looking at those photos you would never guess he can be any sort of trouble….Fab photos x
Oh dear! You really never would guess he was stroppy from those photos. He looks so cheerful! Hope he catches up on his sleep soon.
He looks like butter wouldn’t melt… Someone this week told me I share too much on the blog that might be seen as negative (like my children misbehaving) but I believe honesty is crucial. All children have difficult days and this post will make a lot of other parents feel relieved that it’s not just them having a tricky time. Thanks x
I feel the same way. Think of all the parents who see our pics/post, and feel relieved that it’s not just them dealing with tantrums and grumpy moods. x
I love how the Southbank is so full of colour, great photo
Thank you for linking up
Amazing how a little sleep messes with them! He sure looks adorable here – wicked cool pants!

He looks so sweet there. But I know exactly what you mean. Mine can be so whiny and stroppy sometimes and then charm me completely minutes later. Kids eh? 🙂
What a beautiful and vibrant capture hon. Lack of sleep does tend to bring out the worst in us. Dubz does look so sweet here though.xx #mysundayphoto
That’s his problem – he always looks sweet. 🙂 xx
Looks great. My 2 are like that. One minute fine and next not. He really doesnt look it though #mysundayphoto
We’ve seen those amazingly bright street furniture along the South Bank too – I think their bright colours are enough to change anyone’s mood!

Think we can all relate to that situation. Not the first time I have felt like disowning them in public. What a bizarre bench, surely to low to the ground to sit on, look more like hamsters wheels…..lol

They’re more art installations than actual benches. One of them is an actual slide. 🙂
