Hair

This week some good things have happened. And some not so good things.

Good things were mainly pancakes. Vegan pancakes to be precise. Bearing in mind pancakes are usually made mainly from milk and egg this may seem a little bizarre. Trust me though, these are GOOD! It's the thing we have when we get up in the morning and remember that oh yeh, we ate the last of the bread yesterday and oops, that's the last of the milk gone into Bob's tea. Anyway it turns out that Linus can fit a rather amazing amount of pancake in him of a morning. More than Bob even. That's a lot of pancake. I think he may be having a growth spurt because all of a sudden he doesn't wake up until 8am, and he then proceeds to spend most of his day telling me how desperately hungry he is.

The bad thing that happened is that we somehow lost most of Linus's beautiful hair. I decided he might look quite cute with a shorter haircut so I sounded him out and he thought that yes, he might like that. So, off we go to the barber shop. I say "classic boys cut please, shortish round the back and sides and longer on top". Sadly the barber interpreted this as meaning "please make my child look like the average Crawley thug". Actually, I think Linus pulls it off rather well and he looks bizarrely grown up yet also exactly the same as he did when he was a bald baby!
