When Dad came to collect me on Thursday I had to show him a ‘Santa’s tree’ they had put up at nursery. It was really nicely decorated and everything, I think he was impressed. He isn’t quite so impressed with it now though as nearly a weeks worth of little fingers meddling with it have taken their toll. In the afternoon Owen came round and he and Dad raced motorbikes on the television meaning I couldn’t watch CBeebies! Never mind, I had plenty of fun ‘helping’ them out with their steering.
I had a surprise Friday afternoon when I came home to find Mum all poorly on the sofa. I made sure Dad and I looked after her good and proper….
She was still a bit icky on Saturday, so Dad and I went to the sea-side with Andy to give her some peace and quiet:

We made sandcastles……

I watched the world go by……

And I sat and pondered just what is my most favourite of all the cakes!
Andy had been promised 4 and a half stars worth of surf on the internet, as you can see in the pictures I think he only got the half….still he enjoyed himself.
At tea-time we had an indoor picnic (that was my idea):

I decided that ham sandwiches were just too much effort and decided I’d only eat the ham.
Sunday we went to see Grandad for lunch:

It was his birthday too, so he had presents! He had stuff for his model railway and I loved helping him unwrap and unpack it all. It did seem a lot more delicate than my wooden set up. Alan and Sonia also came over and I had a lovely cuddle with Sonia after my belly was full of cake. I also got to show Alan just how good I am on my potty, he loved that! A special thanks to Anne as well for making me some stuffing at such short notice.
Monday, mum was off work….she must have been feeling brave as we did painting:

Notice how she has stripped me naked before I was allowed the messy stuff? Once Dad had come home from work and had some lunch we headed off to the Coral Reef for some splash action. When we arrived we were met with a big sign saying the pool was closed for maintenance until January! Oh dear…I was so distraught I fell back to sleep only to wake up in Guildford again! They had spotted another fun pool from the bus the week before. It took a while for me to warm up to the place as it was unfamiliar territory for me but I soon got into it and we had a great time. After the swimming we sat and had a burger watching people ice-skating which was pretty funny, maybe we’ll try that next time? When we got home we went to see Grandma, she'd had an operation on her eye and was wearing a patch that made her look like a pirate!
Tuesday afternoon I recharged my batteries by sleeping all afternoon and having an early night, it's a hard life isn't it.
On a final note, those doors on the advent calendar are opening really slowly.....
