Allright then everyone? I am thanks....Well Thursday night Grandad and Anne turned up so I knew something was going down. I got my best sulk on and cried for Britain, I love making it difficult for them to leave. For maximum effect I pushed my pink angst ridden face through the cat flap for dad to see as they pulled away in the car. As soon as they were out of the road it was business as usual playing with Grandad and Anne before going off to bed.As is now becoming the norm, Dad sloped off out on his bike Saturday morning leaving me and mum to fend for ourselves at breakfast time. I set a new Commonwealth record of six, yes that's right, SIX bowls of rice krispies. Result. In the afternoon we went horse racing. The parade ring was brilliant, I could see the horses close up. There are no pictures though as dad left the camera batteries at home. I think he must have lost them in the same place as the form book as they only had one winner between them all afternoon.....very poor. Trish, Al, Matthew and Carrie-Anne were there as well which was smart. I got cuddles off of the girls while we watching the racing from right down on the rails. I think they fared a little better with the gambling than mum and dad did. I'd also like to thank the nice man that helped dad carry me over the railway bridge in my pushchair.As if they hadn't frittered enough of my milk money/college fund away they had a poker night on Saturday. So I got to see everyone for a bit before I was put to bed. Apparently mum won, good work, now where's that Early Learning Centre catalogue, Christmas is coming you know!Sunday we went to some shopping place in Bicester, it was rubbish but they had a good playground.
I thought this might make a good record cover for my first album? I had a great game of peep-bo with an older boy, he was great fun and the slide was really good too.So thats the out and about section covered, what else have I been up to? Well first of all I have really been getting into Zeddy Zebra (last years Christmas present) and have been upping the ante a little bit by doing 'no-handed' rocking and 'standing on the seat' rocking. Dad hasn't managed to get any pictures of me in full flight yet as i'm keeping these specialised moves until I really have them nailed. I did let him have one of me during the dismount phase of a seat standing manouver on Nemo though:
Now then, as all you lovely ladies know, hair care is very important. I have been using a special organic conditioner over the weekend:
Pear skins! I thought it might leave a deep glossy shine but it infact left a horribly clagged mess that took a good dose of washing out...back to the drawing board on that one I think.
May I extend a warm welcome to you all again friends.Well it's getting dark early at night and not till later in the morning so i'm struggling to get up for nursery when it still looks like the middle of the night outside.In other news, i've got a number of jobs to do around the house. I feed the cat each evening and funnily enough, she seems to really like me now. I also have to lay the table (sort of). Dad gives me the condiments over the kitchen gate and I go and put them on the table one by one before we have dinner. I ain't doing any washing up though....Last Wednesday we had a right housefull! Nanny and Aunty Trish (the Ebay wizard) came round to see me and then just in time for the football Owen, Andy, Rach and Ben turned up. A bit later on Nick and Carol arrived too. It was great to see them all and I had loads of lovely targets for my books.Hmm what else, we had a right weekend of it. Saturday mum went out to a meeting so dad and I lazed about and watched the morning line before having a leisurley breakfast. After a hectic morning I had a kip in the afternoon...it's all go! In the evening we went to Pizza Hut. I gorged on Fruit Shoot until I couldn't take any more and spewed into the tray on my high chair. I very nearly filled it up and it was hilarious to watch dad try and clean it up using only one small napkin. I was okay afterwards though so we went down to the fair. It was my first time and I really enjoyed the flashing lights and loud music, perhaps they could take me to Liquid next week? Or then again, maybe not....Sunday was Monkey World day, mum has been going on about it for ages and she finally wore us down.
The best bit was the crunchy gravel to run around in! The monkeys were okay though once I realised they were safely enclosed and posed no more of threat to my safety than mum or dad usually do. I made monkey noises and beat my chest at the ones I liked and ignored the ones I didn't. There were some smart playground stuff:
They wouldn't let me go on the go-karts, killjoys! I don't care if I couldn't reach the foot pedals! Still, I had a go in this lorry:
Dad scared the life out of me in the gift shop with a glove puppet, how was I supposed to know it wasn't a real monkey?Monday saw another accident report form from Nursery, and once again it was a bicycle related lip injury. The reason for it was there in black and white on the form though, I had a tantrum at another kid that was already on the bike. Shamed. I fall off bikes more than dad, that pleases him I think, but then I am pushing the performance envelope while he stays well and truly in his comfort zone the big wet.Tuesday we went to see mum for lunch and she let me have some coke up a straw, it made my face go all funny with the bubbles after each slurp. I can't believe they drink that stuff. We popped in to see Aunty Chris and she gave me another balloon, smart! After that we went to get Nanny and then on to Fantasy Land. I was a bit more up for it on this occasion and soon got stuck in to the slides, climbing things and ball pools. I think I wore them both out well and truly before I decided to let them go home......
Hello all! I'm still a bit loose in the old nappy department. Mum had to take a stool sample from me and take it to the hospital, I think dad was pleased to get out of that one. Anyway, they couldn't find anything wrong with it so thats good I suppose. It's quite common at nursery by all accounts. I didn't go to nursery at all last week, mum looked after me in the morning every day....I wound her right up and make no mistake!So, what else has been going on? Saturday we went to Paul's to watch the football on his fancy new television. I got to harass Andy, Owen, Chrissy, Paul and Uncle Alan so that was pretty good. Grandad and Anne looked after me Saturday night so mum and dad could go down the pub.On Sunday we went shopping in Reading, they were crossing their fingers that my backside would hold out for the day...it did! We even did some christmas shopping and ate sarnies in the sunshine!Monday was back to nursery, and in the afternoon we took Nanny out for a walk around Greenham Common. We walked for miles and miles in the warm sunshine which was nice. We saw some cow's as well, they were pretty big so I didn't want to get too close but neither did Nanny!Tuesday lunch time we went and joined the library, I got to take four books away (either with animals in them or mechanical diggers) without paying for them or anything! All i've got to do now is work out some top notch hiding places so dad gets stitched up on overdue charges.Fashion advice:This seasons hot look is the apron!
You heard it here first.I've been wearing this at every oppurtunity lately, I think it looks rather dashing although it makes it a bit more tricky for dad to get my seatbelt on in the car.What else has been going on...hmm....i'm really enjoying playing with my mini football. Sometimes I actually kick it around but mostly I throw it at dad or mum with all the pace of a fastbowler. My dancing is coming along nicely as i've got a few more moves in my repetoire.I've also decided enough is enough on the lay in front at the wekends. I used to let them laze around in bed until gone nine o'clock sometimes on saturday or sunday but not anymore! My new regime is one up, all up by 7am....they'll thank me for it in the long run, they'll waste their lives in bed!
Hello again, sitting comfortably? Then i'll begin!Sue joined the select few on the illustrious list of Ned sitters last Friday. We read books and had a nice time. Mum and Dad keep trying to sneak out while i'm distracted in these situations, but I know whats going on when Mum disappears upstairs to get ready and Dad looks at his watch, then up the stairs, then back at his watch again.....suckers!Mum worked on Saturday, so we took her out for lunch and popped in to see Auntie Chris at her work....have a nice holiday!In the afternoon some of the family from Kent were up for a visit! I got to meet Brian, Mary, Mark, Zoe and best of all Kiri:
I'm not sure exactly what relation I am to all these people, it's too complicated for me to fathom out. But I enjoyed showing off for them, they were a great audience.We watched some horse racing on TV and Dad blew bubbles for our entertainment before I was sick all over Nanny's floor and chair as well as all down my smart shirt and all over my shoes. Uncle Slim had also turned up and gave me a cuddle while dad and Nanny cleared up the mess, I managed to get the sick from my shoes all over his nice golfing clobber....oh dear!Althought there was no further puke, the other end was certainly getting busy....I don't think I ought to go into too much detail but it was pretty messy in the back section.We didn't do much on Sunday as they were scared to take me out anywhere. We went out in the garden for a bit while they actually did some gardening and had a small walk in the afternoon. Pretty low key for us lot really.
I've been off nursery Monday and Tuesday because of my continuing gravy bum, although i've been feeling fine in myself and going about my usual business. Hopefully things will be more solid in the morning.....Hopefully i'll some more high octane action to report on next week.
