Our 'Diary of a Netmum' series continues with this visit to the dentist.
Looks all cute and serene doesn't it?
Well that was before the middle one started pressing buttons on the 'gargle and spit sink' (yes that is actually the scientific term for it). Before we knew it there was water overflowing onto the floor and the off button wasn't working...
As the water (and panic) started rising I stopped filming - otherwise my growls and threats to the owner of the wandering fingers could have been shared...
Christine (the dentist) had to cut off the water at the mains and swiftly showed us the door - mortifying.
Lucky she's my sister-in-law though so can't get rid of us that easily :)
You hear that Chris?

How to build an Exploding Volcano
My Diary of a Netmum series continues on Netmums Channel,. This week we built an exploding volcano!
(Or should that be dribbling volcano...?)
We took this on as a half-term project - slowly building the volcano with layers of papier mache, letting a layer dry each day and finally painting it before setting the 'explosion' in motion!
Once we had finished with it the kids took it into school with them with some extra supplies of vinegar and baking soda. Their teachers and classmates loved getting involved.
Definitely worth the effort!

Kate and Co. on film - Diary of a Netmum
I'm famous!
Well not quite. Unless 152 views counts as fame these days. Which I'm guessing it doesn't. But that's where you guys come in of course.
Over the next couple of months I'm going to be sharing my diary of family life in the Kate Takes 5 household with these nifty little Netmums videos. As you can see the cartoon version of me is uncannily similar to the real thing (though I would never wear those shoes) - I'm just disappointed Jesus didn't get a version of himself done, because sadly he's dead now.
No not that Jesus - this Jesus:
The first episode is now up on Netmums Youtube Channel where you can see the boys enjoying a bit of body painting. It was all good fun until the Goddamn dog picked up the paint tray and Baxter stood in the paint.....but we won't mention that hey.
So don't forget to pop over to You Tube and subscribe to Netmums Channel so I can turn one of these kids into the next Honey Boo Boo and retire to the sun sometime soon.
