Drive home

Never go on a long car drive with a little sister that is determined to be hyper the whole way and when every seat in the car is filled and there isnt a whole lot of room to avoid the flailings of said sister. For that matter dont go on any sort of drive with limited space and a hyper sibling unless you and everyone in the car is hyper. It makes things marginally more difficult if you are the only hyper one and everyone else is just annoyed by it. Some of the antics of Stephanie the brainless (she told me to use that name if i blogged this) were as follows--
She repeatedly hit herself in the face with her fist saying OW after each wack. When asked why she was doing this she replied "because i want to have a bump and a purple spot on my head tomorrow" Me being the obliging sister that i am, i offered her my fist to use on her head, she promptly agreed and grabbing my fist started hitting herself with it. This is one case where i can honestly say that I didnt hit her, her face hit my hand. Steph the brainless will completely agree with that statement and in fact it might have been her that coined that particular phrase.
Steph thought it would be good if she sat on top of karas legs as kara stretched them across the seat to go to sleep. this put her up rather high and in a postition to be of greater annoyance, a fact that im sure she calculated in to her plans :P
When we stopped to get gas, we all went in side to load up on snacks, Steph decided to get some of those lifesaver gummies. Thats all well and good except that when we got back in the car she thought it would be amusing to stick them to her glasses and try to catch them in her mouth as they fell off. This caused much laughing and eventually led to Stephanie trying to catch her own ear and failing that decided it would be easier to chase her finger instead (im assuming she was hoping she would actually be able to catch her finger but sadly it still continues to elude her best efforts)
About an hour from home mom finally let Steph crawl into the back of the car with the luggage to give us all a little more space (and quiet). When we got home we realized that it had been quiet back there for quite a while and it turns out she had fallen asleep sprawled across all of our luggage and blankets, actually making a rather cute sight that made it rather tempting to just open the door and see if she fell out... i know, im such a loving sister aren't i?
We are obviously home now and i think im about to hit the sack so im ending this here.
