Mum and I formed a marching band while Dad was trying to have his now customary half hour kip when he gets home from work:

He woke up pretty sharpish….
Ned has been experimenting with the camera as well, he managed to take a nice one of me:

And not such a nice one of Dad:

Thursday afternoon Chris and Nanny came round, Nanny had got me a lovely outfit.
And she had got me the greatest jumper ever, Transformers!

Dad cleared off out with Owen, Andy, Ben, Jase, Rich and Kaz on Thursday night, Mum reckoned he was going dancing! How ridiculous, I found it hilarious but I’d love to have seen it. Dad said he had really been to see a concert and that there was in fact minimal dancing (but quite a bit of beer by the look of him).
Friday afternoon we went to Fantasy Land. We haven’t been for ages so I was really up for it. I can now climb, slide, jump and balance on everything in there so Mum and Dad are truly redundant when we go there now (I may need to go back to them occasionally if I have a bump though).
Saturday morning we were up and out early to the outdoor swimming pool. I have a chequered history with this place so I think they were a bit nervous as to what I’d be like, but I quite liked it, even though there wasn’t any slides! I taught another small lad how to jump into the water and we had some races up and down the small pool. I’m now big enough to stand up in the shallow end of the big pool as well! I had a good time riding round on Dad’s shoulders, even though he kept falling over and getting me wet. I also enjoyed pushing Mum and Dad into the water from the wall around the side while they were just sitting there minding there own business. We stayed for nearly three hours which must be a record? Even better than the swimming was a trip to the pasty shop….it’s been a long time, I’ve missed you sooooo much.
In the evening Grandad, Anne and Alan came round for a little Barbecue, Grandad and Anne bought me the best t-shirt ever, that had dinosaurs you could stick on and take off, it must be magic or something.
I got a lovely dress as well! I am very well dressed indeed (until I puke all over myself).
So Sunday was picnic time at Savernake:

Dad and I found some bike jumps in the woods, I loved it and was hitting them really fast, so fast the pictures are blurry:

The rest of us sat about in the shade and took it easy:
So then Monday and another day off! Mum suggested we take a picnic to Victoria Park….but walk instead of taking the car! Dad took some convincing but we were soon on our way along the canal.

I was in a hurry as usual. We fed the ducks on the way, and even spotted lots of fishes swimming near the surface:

We set up camp near the playground and had just settled down for a Ham sandwich when Abi, Nick and Carol turned up! Great stuff, I got to play on thw swings with Abi:

We stayed a while and then walked home again. I didn’t get in the buggy once and walked all the way myself. By the time I got home I was whacked out, so tired in fact I didn’t even bother having my tea and just went straight to bed.
I had a lie in on Tuesday so didn’t bother going to nursery. I didn’t mind because I had a lovely time with Mum. We did some gardening and even found a bramble with blackberries on it. They were lovely!
After last weeks art, here’s a piece of performance art for you:

We call it yang-yang!
