Keeping a straight face

...how on earth do you keep a straight face when your kid does the cutest thing, but he's also being naughty...

Callum now says "nu, nu, nu, nu" (no, no, no, no) in this little singsong voice and at the same time shakes his finger at himself. It's sooo cute, it makes me giggle inside every time I think about it. The trouble is that he does this when he's just about to to something naughty and it's completely impossible to keep a straight face. We'll suddenly hear this little "nu, nu, nu, nu", we run to where it's coming from and there's Callum splashing in the cats water bowl with a big grin on his face. Saying "no" in a stern voice just doesn't work when you have a huge grin plastered on your face, oh well.
