Had a bit of a traumatic trip back fom school last week actually, I think I crashed my scooter 4 times during the short journey. The finest effort being a complete over the handlebars body slam!
I'm quite happy to get all wrapped up in my winter gear, but like Ned before me, one glove is always enough otherwise it interferes with finger sucking!
I've also been caught a few times singing 'here comes the girls' and swaggering about.....
So, friday night was christmas ights switch on night in town. Mum escaped work early.
And auntie Christine was found wandering the high street (good job too, she took us Tesco for pick 'n' mix). Here I am savouring my sweeties!
We waited in town for a while before some very lovely looking fairy ladies on stilts came by closely followed by Santa himself on a horse drawn sleigh...how very exciting!
We followed the procession on to the Market place, which had apparently become a meeting place for my school mates, there was loads of them there! There was a snow coming out of the town hall window, loads of it too, I really loved that:
And then the countdown took place for the big light switch on!
I hated it, it was too loud and I didn't understand what on earth was happening, Until all the pretty lights came on that is, then I was much happier!
Speaking of not liking loud noises, I had a bit of a shock with the stereo at home the other day. I put my Cbeebies CD in so Ellis and I could have a little dance, being a little impatient, I decided I couldn't hear it so turned the volume right up.....when it finally did start playing it was so loud it nearly blew me off my feet! I ran screaming and crying for Mummy while Dad raced to turn it down...oops!
So then, the weekend. Saturday we didn't want to do anything, just for a change. We love to laze about in pj's and watch telly. But Dad goes mad indoors for too long so he had to bribe us with a trip to the shop and maybe a few sweets! Ha ha...
I rode 'my green bike' all the way there, Mum was proper impressed.
Auntie Christine came round to look after us Saturday night, good times!!!
We watched the dancing of course.
Yeah and she bought me some 'Geomag' which is a load of sticks and magnets you can build things out of. After a rocky start, I have decided they are impossible to put down, I love them....so does Dad, but he only gets to play with them while i'm asleep!
Sunday then, and again no clear plan...oh dear. We got forced to go out to the woods in the wind and rain. I put up considerable resistance but once we got there I thought what the heck and threw myself into it....well, every puddle I could find!
Yeah, it was great fun, splashing everywhere we could:
After about an hour though, when the cold had set in it wasn't quite so much fun truth be told.
Still, Dad sorted us out a much needed hot chocolate when we got home so it was worth it.
So that brings us to today then, the first day of advent!
I'm a little bit excited about all of this you know....
Neds truck was out and my penguin drawer arrangement, all ready to be visited by the fairy every morning as well as our calendars to open...
That is sure to mean no lay in's for anther 23 days at least!
Dad asked me what was in my calendar, and I told him that it was tomatoes...he reckons it's holly though.....
