Well first of all, this weeks big news is that Mum has started giving me pocket money of my very own. I get to save it if I like, or spend it (which I like more). For my first week I bought a Kung Fu Panda book and a packet of percy pigs for my favourite lady at nursery, Roses. She was really pleased with them.
How about buying your little sister something nice?
Dad did his annual 'messy' activity with me as I wanted to build a model city for mum:

We'd been saving up the boxes and tubes for a while. Here I am sticking some windows on:
We were so organised the other evening that we even managed a trip to the park after tea and before bed. I made Mum walk me about and push me on the swing:
And I looked for victims to race around the bike track. There was one girl, she was much bigger than me and a good bit faster accross the field.....
I can now count as far as 24 all on my own! I didn't need to count quite that far for the cookies mum and I made:
They were lovely. I also wanted to make sure Max and Leo got one as a moving back to Newbury present! Dad was helping them move some of their stuff so we had mum to ourselves all day. We made a den with the sofa cushions:

We went to the big park in the buggy, I made sure I told Mum that Dad would have made us drive!
We were supposed to be feeding the ducks, but Ned's friend from nursery Hugo was there and I ate most of the bread myself so we scrapped that idea, sorry ducks!
Ned gets told off for this....I don't!
Sunday morning we took Leo his car bed back, Emma was really excited about it as Leo loves cars. When I saw Max he was really excited to be back in Newbury full time, we screamed a bit and had a little hug about it. We'll even be going to the same school (although he'll be going to the big boys bit).
After all that we went to Grandad and Anne's for lunch, we hadn't been for a while so it was nice to catch up. Here I am trying on Grandad's glasses:
And one of Anne's shopping bags:
I had a great time exploring their garden, there were bird feeders, strawberries and runner beans growing amongst other things, it was really interesting, especially when I came inside and watched the birds at the feeders through the binoculars.
We went for a walk down their park and had a great time until it started raining and we had to dash back. I think it always rains in Wanborough?
Okay then, on to the Ellis news, i've been having the occasional day visit to the next room up at nursery and loving it. I expect when Ned and all his mates go to school next month we'll all get shunted up a room......i'm not sure how Jess will cope without me though.
One of my favourite moves is to grind my lovely new teeth together as loud as I can, Mum and Dad love to listen to that!
I'm also walking fairly regularly all on my own as well now, well, when I can be bothered that is. Mum, Dad and Ned seem really excited about it when I do but quite honestly it's just easier to crawl. I haven't let them have any video footage as yet though, ha ha!
