A brief resurgence of skittles last week:

I won!
We had a book fair at school last week, I badgered dad for days to take me after school and he finally relented. I got a Lightning Mcqueen activity book, with 1000 stickers! There are still a few things in the house that have escaped decoration so far....
I got one as well, an animal one with flaps to lift up, I love my books.
After we had sorted our books out I made the most of being able to have a good old poke around in the bigger kids playground, it was really rather good. Even better was that the after school club came out to play too, which included Hugo. It went sour pretty quick though after I fell out of the playhouse window, blaming Hugo for my rather rapid descent. Dad reckoned it was a very good fall, so I made sure I blew a load of soggy wood chippings at him that I had collected around my mouth while I was on the floor, ha ha.
So saturday after our breakfast (croissants are my new fabourite, well, the jam is actually) we packed up and headed off for the seaside.
We did indeed, the weather was lovely and by the time the sat nav had sold us a dummy we arrived late enough to start on the picnic:

I did a little sun bathing:

And once we'd had our fill:

We headed off for an explore.
I had my shoes and socks off within seconds of getting on the sand, so it was paddle time:

It was also digging time of course:

Here I am just before I decided to completely take the plunge and fell over in the water:

Dad was worried i'd get cold so we had to go back to the car, I didn't want to leave and made that very clear.

I didn't mind too much....

....We were going to go back on the ferry across the harbour mouth. We drove onto a big old ugly boat and soon enough we were chugging accross the water, exciting or what?
We had a lovely kip on the way home, before Slim and Trace came round on saturday evening. Lovely, more people to show my room to! I do love to show people my room.
Soon after Abi bought Nick and Carol round too so we had a little play together before it was bed time whilst everyone else showed up for cards. How rubbish we got put to bed?
Sunday Trish, Al and Carrie-Anne came to see us with a chest of drawers for my bedroom. Excellent, more people to take upstairs and another perfect canvas for several hundred Lightning McQueen stickers, thanks!
In the afternoon Dad took me for a spin on the back of his bike which was nice.....
...and Uncle Alan took me for a spin in the Aygo with Mum to see grandma in hospital. I managed to acquire a tub of ice cream and a piece of fruit cake (although I didn't like the cake much). It's all about timing.
Just one more thing, Kimi has a new sister! How smart is that? She's called Marny by all accounts and we can't wait to meet her.
I can say her name already, i've been practicing all afternoon.
