Bent As can Be! (by sarah)

Here is Alaric modelling the very Bent french stick we bought in Tescos for, wait for it.. - 4p!!!! thats right Four Whole Pennys!!!!! It where freashly baked and everything!!!

I think it was worth it just for the humour value!!!!

Temptation begain to kick in by this point and he started insinuating I was being rude! I was shocked I tell you shocked!

He then started threatening me with said bent loaf - but I thought it made him look like mosses with the staff that turns into a serpant (I think thats the story anyway!).

I think much fun was had from the simple pressance of a long bent thing and the French stick was lovely we had it as part of my Birthday Dinner 🙂

Mew! 26 :'( (by sarah)

Eeeek!!!!!

I am officially MEGA OLD!!! More than a quarter century what happened?

Still according to the patented Sarah formular of age I am currently a whole 4yrs of age 🙂

Whats that you want to know the formular?

Well you see if you have ever dreamed of Neverland then you cant grow up unless you want too, the age of adulthood in the uk is official 16 therefore if you dont want to grow up you cannot age over 15 but it wouldnt make scense for nothing to happen on your 16th year of existance would it?

Then if you notice university students are a lot more immature than many refered to as youth so the answer obvious, no?

Thats right you start again backwards! This makes the average finial yr student 9 yrs old - explains a lot beleive me!

Me BORED!!! HYPER HYPER HYPER!! See I'm definatly 4!

This age is doubly applicable as you are supposed to act your shoe size well I'm a 3-4 so - watch out world here I come!!!!

The Mischevious Adventures of Jean (by sarah)

Jean has been up to lots of things 🙂

For a start thanks to our visit to a wiggly of babies she now says shoosh and points to her shoes, or as shes taking them off! We where in the car and she started repeating it over and over agian, Al said, 'Jeans talking about her shoes then,' just as there was a sound of velcro and the thud of the shoe hitting the floor!

She also knows that shes not allowed to throw her food on the floor so what does she do? She looks at you grinning mischeviously whilst slowely moving her hand containing food out over the edge of th highchair. She also says no and shakes her head if you say its bed time and she doesnt want to go!

I'm afraid she is a bit fluffy blonde girly - she cries when you take her shoes off her for bed and if you take them of to change her she screams the house down unless shes allowed to hug them (or at least she does when its daddy changing her but then I cuaght him giving in and putting her to bed in her shoes!!!).

Having to do the eye treatment on both Alaric and Jean has prooven interesting to! I did Jeans treatment first which she really really hates then I made the mistake of putting her on the floor to play and moving straight on to do Daddys eyes. She saw what I was doing and went mental - she hit me and everything whilst crying and saying da da da repeatedly. She got really distressed - got up onto his lap and wouldnt let go of him - I was definatly bad perant - not only had I annoyed her by doing her eyes but here I was trying to do the same to Daddy! Al explained he was there volunteerally but she still looked at me darkly.

Still its sweet (especially if your Alaric and not Sarah).

She has also definatly got an imagination these days - she talks to her toys, she hugs her cuddlies lots and lots and has favourites - she also hates dolls with a vengence - even though she has now started calling them baba. She is either scared or angry at them or both - either way she throws them away violently if you put one in a confined space with her - otherwise she just cries and looks at them suspicously but only whislt being securely hugged by a trusted adult. Bizar reaction really :/

Appart from that she loves the wooden toys best it seems she is currently shunning everything other than wooden toys or cuddlies!?

Still I am quiet proud of her - she typed mum and sent it to a freind of mine on MSN - dont beleive me? Well I've copied and pasted it in!

See! ok ok so its in the middle but we know what she ment!

She also had Ella confussed with algabra!

3W1±W3± MV,

Ella thought she was still talking to me for a good ten minuts - I was hoovering at the time and had stupidly left the laptop on the chair!

Our Visit to Essex (by sarah)

Last week we wnet to Essex for a couple of days - apologes for not contacting peeps like I said I would for Birthday drinks but things went a bit arie!

First off we where originally supposed to be going for a week but with Al being ill over Christmas and New Year he a) had to catch up on work and b) couldnt drive. We probably wouldnt have come up at all but Mums just been diagnosed with cellulitis and we where worried about her!

Once in Essex we thought about doing my drinks but one of our servers broke 🙁 Which in someways was fortunate as it resides in the Docklands which is a lot easier to get to from Essex than from Gloucestershire! However this did basically eat up any time we had spare so I priortiesed and just saw some of the family - didnt even get to see all of them!!!

Still it was fun and it ment we had a whole lot of presants waiting for us there so it was sort of a second christmas - only this time Al could see! didnt seen to stop him perversly guessing presants by smell and taste!!!!
