I have to go shopping now ............

Yesterday my Mum and I took the cherubs shopping for some new summer clothes. They were in need of a few bits and bobs for our holidays. The difference between the shopping styles of a boy and a girl are unbeleivable! I can see the future man and woman already!

Fraser -
Has to be dragged kicking and screaming into anything that closely resembles a clothes shop.
Dislikes anything you show to him , unless it has Doctor Who characters emblazoned over the front.
Refuses to try anything on.
Makes a beeline for anything expensive and or remotely gadget like. Ignored us when we were pulling out lovely T shirts and shorts and instead was drooling over a "man bag" with lots of little pockets for all of his "stuff" (which he got may I add! Granny Mary is a soft touch) Oh Mum look at this it is ONLY £90 what a bargain! Look at these cool doctor who socks! They are only £7! (me) are they silk sweetie? I would like at least 10 pairs for £7!
Once we get home he jumps out of the car with whatever new toy/gadget he has conned out of one of us. Leaving all of the bags and the new clothes, that we actually went to buy still in the boot, doesnt look for it again until he needs it to be fully washed ironed and folded in his drawer ready to put on at the exact moment he needs it.

Kirsten -
Is the first one racing into clothes shops , all you can hear is cooing and calls of "oooh this luuly (lovely), me like, me buy" "Oh me fancy"
Loves everything you pick out! The enthusiasm pours out of her, wants to buy everything!
Is already half stripped by the time you reach the childrens section. She knows what is coming! No room for embaressment about being half naked in a shop full of strangers! Going to a changing room uses up so much more shopping time, didn't you know!
Makes a beeline for anything pink and girly, twirly skirts, broderie anglaise. This girl knows what flatters her and sticks with it! And luckily she has an eye for a bargain! Although this doesn't impare on her impeccable taste!
Once we get home she steps out of the car in the new jacket that we bought for her, as she just couldnt wait to use it. As she struggles in carrying the bag twice the size of herself , stuffed full with all of the goodies, she is already starting to strip off. A girl must put on a fashion show of all the new treats she has been given. She struts and twirls just like any mini supermodel should.

LOL Sound familiar?? I am sure this is a similar scenario that goes on worldwide within marriages everywhere.

Stereotypical?? much??

Cliff Richard eat your heart out!

Our summer holidays are going to be the best!
woo hoo! I am so looking forward to the summer holidays this year, I am hoping to be updating on here with all of the fun things we have been doing.
Nothing good tomorrow though, I have the dentist! Yuck!! The rest of the week should be fun, there is gonna be a birthday in the house! yee ha!
I can't wait for all of the picnics, beach trips, baking, crafts, some scrapbooking and hopefully large amounts of dry weather!Oh and our Holiday!!! yay our first for 2 years!
All we need now is a big red bus and some dodgy jumpers! haha

Where's the Daddy???

Well we are into our third day with no Murray, he is away on training for work. I think we are doing not too bad, we are all still clean and fed and the house is still standing (although it may be the mess holding it up ;) ) but something just isn't right! The first thing K asks in the morning is "Daddy ome? Daddy bed? " . Fraser asked to call him 3 times last night as there were things he just HAD to tell him (mostly about WWE wrestling). My bed is suddenly quite cold? think I may need a hot water bag tonight, a bit strange for June. Even June in Scotland!
I am sure Friday will be here before we know it and all the gaping holes in our daily lives will be filled again, in the meantime I can foresee a few phonecalls to Daddy's mobile. Fraser and I have his homework to finish tonight, thank goodness Murray is even good at maths long distance! LOL

Shopping list

As it is Sat morning I had a lovely lie in, I get very spoiled on the weekends and Murray lets me sleep as late as I want. When I got up Kirsten was in a fantastic mood and had had a ton of fun with Daddy. She very proudly showed me her "shopping list" apparently she had taken a long time carefully "writing" it.
The things she wanted to buy were
Toast
Pineapple
Onion
A roll (she calls it a nool)

I was LOL, it was so cute. I have no idea what she is going to cook with that lot! haha Then she walked around for ages chanting onion toast, onion toast and cracking up at herself!

what a girl!

Blogging virgin!

I am so new at this!! bear with me, I am not even sure who I am going to invite to read this (apart from the March April 06 ladies and my Lor!) but it seemed like a great idea to jump on the Blogging bandwagon! hmm does anyone know how I can get a bit on the side about me and my blog? thankyou !
