Summers finally here, well, kind of. We had a barbecue on Friday night, it was a pretty chilly affair but we didn't need the shelter Dad cobbled together out of a plastic sheet and a bit of the old bath. We ate sausages....it was ace.
I'd already gone to bed by the time it had finally got going so missed all the excitement.
I fancied being a pirate last week, I haven't had the costume out for a while so thought i'd give it a dust down. I rode my scooter to nursery dressed in it and got some pretty funny looks. Mum said I should waft my sword at passing cars, so I made sure I did at every oppurtunity. Dad made us go to the DIY shop so I wore it there too, although I was a little put out as the people working there were also in fancy dress so I didn't look quite so special. I lost my eye patch as well. Luckily Dad found it at the back of a load of tile edgeing. I don't know how it got there?
After all that I was pretty worn out:
So then it was a bank holiday weekend, which meant exposing myself in public for an alfresco nappy change:
How delightfull, at least there was no one else about.
I was pretty chuffed to be showing mum my skills at the BMX track at long last. She was pretty impressed I think. She challenged me to a race down the track:
Rather stupidly she nosed in front, so I pedalled as fast as I could, picked up a lot of speed and launched a huge jump. I think I was so pleased to be airborne and make the landing that I promptly fell off and ended up with a gravel moustache!
Saturday night was party night, our uncle Slim's 50th no less. We think he looks pretty good for 50, and he's still lots of fun, not like a proper old person at all!
There were loads of people, bright lights, loud music and lots of food (sweets).
I was booked as Slim's stripogram (it was pretty hot to be fair):
We drank, we ate, we danced (well I didn't, I chased two young girls around all night) and I saw a previously hidden camp side of Owen I had never seen before (sadly the video footage was too dark). I also got my head stuck in the arm of a chair that I was having a little rest in....oh dear.
We stayed right until the end, Mum and I were worn out:
I hope you had a good time Uncle Slim, I know we all did! And thanks for inviting all of our baby sitters too, it meant they had to bring us along!
Grandad and Anne came round to help with some odd jobs around the house on Sunday morning, when they arrived Dad was still in bed feeling a bit delicate. He declined the offer of going up the ladder as he reckoned he already had a bit of a sway on, so made poor old Grandad do it!
So monday and we were still off nursery, great! We went to the crafty raft race to see Chard paddle home. He took a bit longer than we expected so we had to entertain ourselves for a bit:
He finally paddled into view, and despite our best efforts and huge encouragement he didn't fall in! Boooooo!
After that we bumped into Edward from nursery and made our way to the park for a very long free go on the big bouncy slide where we also ran into Joshi and Toby, it was like a nursery outing!
So after a go on a motorbike on the roundabout we were pretty much done:
We also had the great honour of christening the new bath over the weekend. Very nice it was too.
Yeah, Dad was really pleased to see me picking out all the tile spacers.....oops!
Just one big claim for me this week...most poo's in one day. Mum changed me twice before we even left for nursery, I had three at nursery, one when Dad got me home and then two more in quick sucession at the dinner table....how about that then?
