Updates

Hiya! Sorry it's been such a long time since I posted. It probably would have been even longer but Daddy has insisted I post something. He says he's added Google Adwords and I'll get to use all the revenue (whatever that means!) for toys. He says it'll be an incentive to post more often. Well, I'm pretty sure that Mummy and Daddy will buy me toys if I insist enough anyway so I have my doubts about its success as an incentive..!

I was thinking of cheating and pretending I had been posting by putting up a lot of little posts and changing the date so that no one would know but I know all my readers (both of them) are cleverer than that so I'll try to tell you everything that's been happening in one post. With as many pictures as I can add. All we need to hope is that I can remember everything that's happened over the past 6 weeks.

Well, we've been up to see Granny and Grandpa several times recently. We do this so that Daddy can cut the grass. And play on the stilts. And so that I can play with the other grandkids. We have a lot of fun together. We also went to the beach and Daddy and me climbed a tree. It's funny how easy it was to get up the tree and I found it quite easy to get down as well. Daddy on the other hand..! Mummy was wishing she hadn't been so quick to put the camera away because Daddy getting off the tree would have been the best photo ever!

I changed classes at nursery in August. Went from the 'twos' class to pre-school. Pre-school is downstairs with better toys and a bigger garden. It's pretty tiring and it's become quite common for me to nod off after a long hard day at the office before dinner.

There's been a lego phase. We've been building houses and towers and monsters and robots and shapes. And this wall, which you can even hide behind!

I know some people will be looking for a gardening update. But there isn't much to tell. We've learned a fair bit. Especially that no matter how much it rains (and it's rained a lot) you still need to water plants in planters every day. This means that you have to go out with your watering can in the rain and get wet yourself. Daddy didn't like to do that much so our plants haven't done as well as they could have. Some things did OK despite our best efforts but the tomatoes that we expected great things from really didn't try. They were Tumbler Tomatoes and we planted them in a hanging basket. Should have been ideal territory for them. Daddy attempted to keep them well watered but they still didn't do very well and out of two plants we only got three tomatoes.

Mummy has got a new car. A very shiny new car. It's a Seat Altea XL and I love it. I have my own door at last. And the window has a blind to stop the sun from hurting my eyes. There are no photos of it yet but it looks just like the one below. And here's a photo showing that it only had 8 miles on the clock when Mummy and Daddy picked it up (you have to take the trip value away from the miles value). Best of all though, the window goes up and down by magic!


And speaking of magic. This month we have mostly been Pottering. I have been watching lots of Harry Potter. I like Harry Potter 3 with the Dementors and the man that turns into a werewolf. I'm a wee bit frightened of Harry Potter 2 - Dobby is too scary! I've been doing a lot of magic. Especially with Daddy. We duel with our wand sabers casting spells at each other. I have made up some excellent spells that cause Daddy to writhe about on the floor. My favourites are 'areckyzebra' and 'protomadonna'.

OK. That'll do for now. I'll try to post more often but I make no promises. I had hoped to post a nice picture of me and Daddy washing Mummy's new car today but Mummy didn't know there was no card in the camera so the fantastic photos she took of me rinsing the soap off the car with the hose and Daddy ending up wetter than the car (not sure how he managed that) don't exist. Shame, I think they would have made folks laugh.
