It's just the way us Clebs are...

Below is the email my sister sent me in light of this recent post.


Celeb mums say: Long hair on boys is OK!
14/05/2008 9:11:00 AM, CelebrityFIX Prev Next Looks like the latest trend for famous kids is long and luscious locks — even if you're a little boy!

Celebrity mums like Elle Macpherson, Kate Hudson and Cindy Crawford are all over the long-locked look, with their little boys all sporting tresses past their shoulders.

These cute little tykes look totally rock n' roll — we bet their shaggy look gets them all the girls in primary school!


Shaggy: Cindy Crawford with son Presley and daughter Kaya, and Kate Hudson with little Ryder


Long-haired beauties: Celine Dion and her son Rene — and Elle Macpherson with son Flynn

To which I say: Just add it to the list of things me and Elle have in common.


But seriously - we cut Fred's only three days ago. Admittedly it was only his fringe as Dave will not let us anywhere near the mullet. And to be honest, the cutting of the fridge involved a whole lot of mummy singing, mummy prancing, Play School (Dinosaur episode of course) and popcorn. For only a few little snips. I suspect a proper haircut for Fred at 2.5 is a bit of a pipe dream.
And if he does, I assure you, it's going to be a buzz cut. And Rocco's will get one as well Apparently. All questions of style are deferred to David (Beckham) in this household.

The Deal with Deal.

Deal is a small town on hte Kent coast which we've visited quite a few times now. It's within 1 1/2 hours Drive from London, has nice food and is pretty. And when you have 2 kids, simply jumping in the car is by far the easiest type of holiday you can have. Oh. And there is golf galore.

We decided very last minute to spend the last New Year in Deal - we booked late on xmas eve and arrived early boxing day for a week. I took a gazillion photos, too many to put in one blog. So here's a few from out and about the town of Deal. The weather was miserable, but we had an absolutely lovely week cooking dinners, drinking wine, watching movies and wrangling children. It was sweet.

Another Reason to Love Two Pints.

I love this show more and more each time I catch it. Dave nad I particularly enjoyed the musical episode which had this little gem. Enjoy.

Argh.

Well, it's been silent here for a while but I've been busy, busy. To the point where last night I stayed awake for far longer than I should have, worrying about all this things I should not have been thinking of. On the upside I've had my parents in town to help and distract, but I'm madly trying to organise something vaguely ok fo Dave's upcoming milestone birthday this weekend. On top of this we have had the somewhat bad (well, unexpected) news that our Landlord plans on selling the house and as of June 4 we will be needing to move. F.A.R.K. I think we had both thought that we would be here till we left for Oz, it is such a lovely, comfortable space to raise our boys. Plus it has the added bonus of a seperate flat to squirrel away the thousands of Aussie travellers and a nanny. Nightmare.

So no doubt I'm going to spend the next couple of weekd madly researching and viewing potential properties until.

Wish me luck.

Will blog more soon.

ps. Go Newcastle!

Are these weeds?

from the fact they have appeared in less than two weeks and swallowed up my garden, I'm thinking yes. Plus they have little stingy things all over their stems. But they are somewhat pretty, so I am vaguely confused. I guess that was the weed's plan.

Just another reason to appreciate that i post photos here and not on Facebook.

These are from mine nad mez's last(ish) night in Adelaide a month or so ago. In their entirity. Apologies for the sheer volume, but suspect that those involved might get some enjoyment from them (as may many others). For some unknown reason I didn't start taking photos till we were at the Crown & Sceptre... a good 3 or 4 hours after my first drink at Pete's gig. Needless to say we start the journey on a slippery slope....

whats that nadsie? verity's new project you say? Oh I seeeeeeeeee..... :)

looking sharp pete! (ps. great gig, loved it)

awwww. young love. xxxx

deer in headlights?

awww. young love.

hmmm... i must have words with my fringe.

looking a bit cold there mez? best get used to it...

at some point (well, the point when the C& S stopped serving us beers and we told the rude rude rude barman that we were going to get him f-i-r-e-d cos we knew important people) we headed to the Garden. Cue crazy lights.

holding it together nicely there Pete.

hey! got an awesome idea. Lets take a photo of me pointing at the FREAKS sign, cos that what we are! f.r.e.a.k.sssssss! Righ. Have I got it??

sadly for georgia we were still hours from the security of bed.

you hear that mezzie? HOURS....

thats better.

not you too pete....

a shining example of when self-taken photos go wrong. Probably a good thing judging the sliver of my expression.

let your mate across the table take it instead.

feel free to offer captions for this one.

awesome.

mmmm. mmmmm. mmmmm. yes. interest rates indeed... mmmm.

one too many beers for me i think. time to put the camera away.

put the camera away heather.

dammit!!..... should have listened. i would have saved your eyes from my Nixon pose (??)

holing it all together remarkably well I think.

as was pete.

his missus?....not so much .

oh dear. dreadful photo.

dear dear.

it's like a mirror facing a mirror. deep.

NOW. I am still waiting for someone to own up to suggesting Sugar. Sure, I trotted up those stairs all too willingly, but I was simply a sheep in this situation....

pete. do you just see a camera and reflexively regroup and pull it together? teach me!!!

dancing AND pouting

moves like a jellyfish....

saucy shimmying.

mez boobs.

shouting out to the party people

(mental note: when drunk, never ever forfieit the camera)

again!! composed?!! You're magical.

not so composed. Though, to be fair, this is generally the type of move I like to pull when dancing, sloshed or not.

sugar awesomeness

aw man georgia. you were giving some seriously awesome photo moments that night.

got curly hair? use it!! just dance!!

Oh I see!! You were possessed.....

that move never gets old. work it.

i wish i could do sound effects to some of these photos.

thats more like it, pete.

thank god. someone put us in a taxi.

see you later adeliadeo!!
