Nedster's World now featuring Ellis!

We're growing up! I've been making visits to the next room up at nursery with Eva. I loved it, she wasn't so sure. I'm sure she'll get to like it but I can't wait! In fact I love nursery so much that the only way Dad can get me to come home with him is to lure me with a ride home on the bike!
And i've been making visits to the infant school class that I will be in next year. Most importantly this means a whole new playground to play in as well as a new pick up point for Dad.
As mentioned last week, Saturday was a trip to the Cotswold wildlife park organised by nursery. We did well to get there on time and pretty soon there were loads of us waiting to get into the park.
Best of all my mate Hugo was there (from school) as well as Jacob and Ted that we used to go to nursery with, what a result! We soon headed off, lists and pens in hand to get spotting.
One of the first ticks on the list was the 'Bras as I like to call them:

Soon followed by the Lions, there was some debate as to whether or not you could claim a dead lion for your list...until the lazy creature finally moved...just a little bit.

As this was an organised trip there was no early picnic as we have become used to, we had to tough it out until 12:30!!! Didn't stop me trying to chance my arm though:

Hugo and I formed a very effiicient animal spotting unit and covered the ground quickly and effectively:

This was probably my my favourite animal of the day, a very smiley Tapir:

When lunch time did finally arrive, we were all a bit torn between eating, and the nearby playground:

But we still had animals to tick off:

And faces to pull:

And photo's to pose for with Matice, Ned, Hugo, Luca and me:

We tried to get the penguins to wear hats:

And then gave up:

The Lemurs weren't interested in hats at all, I thought they were rather like cats though:

The Meerkats were much more intertested in hats, they loved them! All the cool boys are sporting meerkat footprint in their hat this season:

We did really well spotting all 30 animals on the list! Hugo and I even took the completed form into school for a joint show and tell!

Yeah, i'm really pleased you had such a good time on MY trip Ned!

Oh and another thing, do you remember me telling yu all about the girl I played with in the airport in Italy? Well she was on the little train at the zoo! What are the chances of that?
Lovely big lie in on Sunday morning then, nice. Lovely big roast dinner, nice, and then off to my first party (no Ned either). Mum and I went alone, i had a great time bouncing:

I spent ages on this trike, I even tried to ride it up and down the slide, Dad would have been proud:

And then we got to tuck into loads of lovely party food:

Before heading off home for a bit of supper and an early night!

While Ellis was off enjoying herself with Mum, I stayed at home with dad. After I gave him a ruddy good hiding at pairs (honestly, it must have been embarassing for the goldfish brain) he managed to prize me off of the sofa for a bike trip to the park. It was deserted so I headed back home to get the ramp out and had a few goes on that. That was a bit strenuos though so we had an ice lolly sat on the grass and played a game of guess the colour of the next car that goes past.
