Happy Birthday Florian!

So for the next 5 days, I can tease Florian about how old he is, unfortunately then I catch him up! We are only 5 days apart. But it is normally fun teasing him! He's OK with it, tells me, what a young catch he's got!

the boys and I managed to surprise him with his presents. You see, we got him things off of his Xmas 2007 list! Which he forgot to add to his birthday list, so he wasn't expecting them. He got a new wallet and some eau de toilette. And we had already been shopping with his birthday money from Mum and Dad, so he did really well. We didn't do anything special today though. Probably cause we were all so tired!
The boys were up between midnight and 2 am, most of the time screaming. And both for no apparent reason. When I expected them to be up and screaming - during a terrific storm we had last night - they were sound asleep. When we wanted to sleep they were wide awake! Didn't make any difference in the time they woke up though! 7.30am nice and bright and early!

The storm last night, was unbelievable, I don't think I have seen anything like it before. The rain was coming down the road like someone was cleaning it with a giant Kärcher (hose with strong water coming from it!) Incredible. The thunder didn't stop rolling and rumbling, and it was lightening all over the place. Then it hailed, about the size of large marbles! I thought the roof was coming off. In fact, once it had eased off, and was "only" raining, I did go and check if all the roof tiles were still there! I am really glad the boys slept through it, cause it wasn't a storm I would have wanted them to watch, it was really scary (but exciting) to watch, for the boys it would only have been scary!

Did I ever mention that our cat Ticki had been missing these past weeks. Well he came back on Robert's birthday, I cried when I saw him, cause I really thought we had lost him! Anyway he is back home now and a lot lot skinnier. I assume he was shut in a garage or such whilst someone was away on holiday, cause he was gone for exactly two weeks! Poor thing, I am sure he will soon put all his extra weight back on again, now he is home. And maybe he won't go nosying in other peoples garages now!

Bye 4 now
