Wet!

How much rain have we had lately? Too much. Certainly too much for Mum and Dad who have had to try and entertain me indoors, no easy task.
We did creep out last Thursday afternoon to the skatepark in Thatcham though. I rode my bike around it like a loony, racing Dad on his skateboard (the silly old fool looks a proper numpty on it as well, still he enjoys himself and it gets him out of the house).
Mum was off work on Friday, and the sun was out. We ate fruit salad in the garden watching the aeroplanes and birdies fly over, proper nice. I got all of my outdoor toys out that I hadn’t seen since last summer and had a right good time. We then went out in the close on my tractor and Mum really made me laugh hiding behind parked cars and jumping out on me as I pedalled past. She still plays with me even though her tummy is getting quite big, she’s a good ‘un. In the afternoon we went to a place called JJ’s in Basingstoke. It’s like fantasy land but different. I took a little while to warm up but then there was no stopping me. They had a massive bumpy slide that came down from right up in the roof and I had loads of races with another little girl that I met there. She was a bit younger than me, so I had to wait for her on the climb back to the top but I didn’t mind. When it was time to go home I kicked off big time as I really didn’t want to go home. There should have been some pictures of the outing but the camera batteries were dead…oops!
Saturday Mum had to go to work….booo! We dropped her off and went to see Nanny. She was going round to Uncle Ian’s so we took her round and I had a great time with Uncle Ian, I showed him how the dishwasher works and he showed me his muddy garden. Owen got up eventually as well, we had a bit of a wrestle and we played with his helicopter until the batteries went dead. Make sure it’s charged next time! Mum+Work on a Saturday = Pasty Shop. Then we had a lazy afternoon……
Sunday, raining like mad and I decided to get up at half past six. In desperation we went to see Uncle Alan in the morning. As predicted, he was sat around in his pants playing computer games. I demanded two visits to the toilet so I could have a nose around upstairs and made sure I left no stone unturned downstairs either.
In the afternoon we went round to Abi’s house for the grown ups to have a music quiz. I took an enormous sack of toys with me which I emptied in the floor, before abandoning the lot of them in favour of Abi’s.

I helped her to eat her yoghurt without even taking a ‘handling fee’
I must apologise for my volume level on Sunday afternoon, I was very, very noisy indeed….ha!
Monday morning I sneaked some grapes into my coat pocket before we left for nursery, good job I didn’t squash them……
Tuesday was parent’s evening at nursery. I saw Alastair on the way in (he was going home) and we ran for each other up the path like two long lost lovers, but didn’t quite know what to do when we got to each other. Apparently i’ve become very confident and independent lately (I’m sure Dad interprets these traits in another, altogether less complimentary term). I also got grassed up for not eating my dinner, I’m getting really fussy at the moment, unless it sausages, sandwiches, grapes or beans I’m not interested…..
