Gibberish!

Blog-a-clock!
Last Wednesday I went swimming with Dad, nanny came along to watch, although she didn’t get to see too much of me. I had a taste for the open water and the big flume slides! I made Dad carry me up to the top of the flume slides again and again and again...they were great. They aren’t usually open in the afternoons so we made the most of it. After we had exhausted those I did loads of jumping off of the wall without Dad having to catch me. I was going right under water and then swimming all by myself (albeit quite slowly) to steps to get out and have another go. My parents are becoming more and more redundant by the day, no wonder they’re having another baby they must be getting bored.
Had a trip out on my bike on Friday afternoon, I rode it all the way to the little park, even up the hills! I’m getting pretty handy on two wheels.
Saturday and Mum and Dad decided that they would go out for a days shopping with me. I didn’t think much of that to be honest and made it pretty difficult for them. We had a nice lunch at Chili’s and I had a whopping great bowl of ice-cream and chocolate sauce for pudding. My mood was no better after lunch though and I continued to be a pest for the rest of the day, even though they did buy me a smart new t-shirt and some fancy socks. In the evening we were guests of Chrissy, Kate, Rich and Kaz for a night of Tapas inspired fayre…..oooh, how fancy is that?

As you can see it all looks very nice, and the general consensus seemed to back that up. Never the less, I thought it best to stick to breadsticks and wait for my cake. I had a lovely play with Abi (she’s sitting up and waving toys about on her own now quite confidently now) and stayed up really late with everyone.
Sunday morning we went to see Grandma. As is the usual format when we go round to see her we roasted by the intense heat and then she gave me a few quid for an ice-cream. She showed me a really neat trick where she took her teeth out of her mouth! It was amazing, I tried and tried to get mine to come out so I could join in but it was no good, they were stuck fast! Things got a little crazy in the afternoon when I went to see Sarah (mum’s friend from work) and Amber (her daughter). They live in the country and they’ve got a dog, two cats, a hamster and even some ferrets! I was glad to see the back of Mum and Dad and escorted them off the premises as they went off somewhere (to see where the baby is going to ‘pop out’ apparently?) We had a great time, we did digging in the mud, made a whopping great chocolate cake with sweets on the top, planted cress in some egg shells and loads of other things that I was so excited about I’ve probably forgotten. When mum and Dad did come to collect me, I opened the door, saw it was them and promptly slammed it shut again, I wasn’t keen on going home! Thanks to Sarah, Paul and Amber fro such a good afternoon, hope I can come over again soon.
I took some getting out of bed on Monday morning after such a busy weekend and once I got home in the afternoon I went back to sleep again on the sofa. I woke up and ordered Dad over for a bit of cuddle up before I fully woke up and we went out on his bike. I hadn’t been out in the bike seat for ages and it was great zooming along. As usual, he always has a motive for these outings and we ended up slithering round some woods looking for bike jumps. I didn’t mind though, it was quite fun slipping and sliding around although he wouldn’t do a jump with me on the back the spoilsport.
I’ve recently invented my own jibberish language, and can fluently reel off several sentences of utter gobble-de-gook with no trouble at all. Mum and Dad will sometimes join in with me with which really makes me giggle, although they aren’t anywhere near as fluent as me.
