I just ate the icing off the cupcakes and gave Mummy the rest - she's my leftover-eater!! Aren't I lucky!!

I loved zooming down the mini roller coaster!

Our friend Will couldn't make it becuase he has to look after his Mummy and his new baby brother Thomas who was born last week!!

A memorial for Great Grand Aunty Daisy.

Today we held a memorial for my Great Grand Aunty Daisy, she passed away just recently. She is my Great Grandad's sister. We couldn't attend her funeral because she lived all the way in London. The minister from my Nanna's church conducted the ceremony. It was a very informal ceremony held at my Nanna's place.

Mummy & Aunty Amanda had to occupy Annie & I with food so we didn't cause too much trouble!

Trying on Nanna's hat.

Now that Annie can walk, we both can now have our grandparents chase us all around the place and we love it!!

Bonds Baby Search 08

Very early this morning Mummy & I went to Chadstone Shopping Centre to have my photo taken for the Bonds Baby Search 08 contest. We lined up for and hour and half to get my photo taken!!
Mummy took a photo of me waiting in line , she gave me a lollipop , which made me happy. I don't like sitting in my pram and waiting in queues! I had to wear a bib so I didn't get my clothes dirty for the photo!Finally, when I had my picture taken I cracked it, but luckily a Wiggles song came on the stereo and I was happy again!! The Wiggles saved the day again!!

I scored a free pair of Bonds socks for all our time and effort showing up for this contest!!

Mummy & I have never seen so many prams, mummys and babies in our lives!! Crazy!! What people do to try and be a SUPERSTAR!! :)
I really hope I get to be chosen to be the Baby for Bonds becuase I get to go to Sydney, have my face plastered all over the country and have a years supply of Bonds clothes!!

I am a SUPERSTAR!!!

Look at me I am in the Diamond Valley Leader, our local newspaper this week!!
The day I went to the Eltham Toy Library there was a photographer there taking photos. I seemed to have attracted the photographer's attention as I was so excited with the rocking cow (which I later borrowed) that he asked my Mummy if he could take my photo. And of course I was happy to play it up for the camera!!
Mmmm, I think I could do this for a living??!!

Morning Tea with Mummy on Mother's Day!

Becuase it was Mother's Day I thought it would be a nice treat if Mummy & I could have hot chocolate and bikkies for morning tea. (Hot Chocolate and ginger nut cookies are my favourite at the moment).

I asked Mummy to help me make the hot chocolate. I like to use the expresso coffee maker, so Mummy & I used it to heat up the milk and to make it nice and frothy.
(I like kitchen electrical appliances, Mummy lets me press the buttons on the blender to make smoothies and I like to even push the top of the juicer to make fresh juices!)

I like to use the spoon to scoop up all the froth...

...and then I like to dunk my bikkies in my hot chocolate...

...mmm and take a nice big glup of my hot chocolate! Yummy!
I like to say 'cheers' with Mummy as we drank our hot chocolates together!!

Rocking Cow!

I borrowed this rocking cow from the toy library - its very cool! I like to rock on it until I flip backwards!

I even think rocking while standing is also very cool!

My 18 month health check up.

A couple of weeks ago I had my health check up. I am in the 25th percentile of height for my age. I am exactly 80 cms tall. I am not a tall boy but I have big feet! I am in between the 3rd & 10th percentile of weight. I am 9.8kgs. I seem to just burn all my energy running around all day!

Just yesterday I had my Chickenpox immunisation. When it was my turn to get jabbed I saw a train go past outside the window and I got all excited. I didn't notice at the time but the nurse gave me the injection while I was looking at the train go past. (What good timing says the nurse & Mummy) After she had finished I looked down at my arm and I didn't even cry or make a wimper!! How brave am I!! Although, I saved all the crying for later that day and night!! - I didn't feel too well after the injection! :(
I don't need to get any more injections until I am 4 years old!! YEAH!!

Posing for the camera!

Using Chopsticks.

One of my favourite meals is noodles. I see my Mummy & Daddy use chopsticks when they eat noodles, so naturally I want to use them too!! I'm pretty good at it, although I do cheat and use my hands sometimes!!

The After Party!!

It was my cousin Annie's 1st birthday party on Saturday. I couldn't go because my Mummy & Daddy had a wedding to go to so they promised me that I could visit Annie and give her birthday presents on Sunday. She got lots and lots of presents !! And I helped 'break' them all in too!! (Not literally).Happy Birthday Annika!!

Building a tower...

While my Mummy & Daddy were eating their dinner, I built a tower with my drinks and mandarins. They thought I was very clever and so they managed to get me to do it again for the camera!
I like to sit with Mummy & Daddy while they have their dinner eventhough I had my dinner earlier. I usually have some fruit to eat.

Supper time!

Leo & I on my couch. I am Showing Leo what I am having for supper!! I usually have some cut up fruit or sometimes a bikkie!!
Leo isn't allowed to eat my food and I am not allowed to eat his food!!

Fishing

I found this fishing rod set at the Toy Library. It has a tackle box with lots of fish inside!!

My clap sticks and didgeridoo.

Daddy bought me presents from Central Australia. My own clap sticks and my very own Didgeridoo! When I am bigger my Daddy will teach me how to play it so I can play along with him on his Didgeridoo.
In the video I like the circular breathing my Daddy makes as he plays. I can even make the sound too - listen carefully!!

Picking chillies.

I have Chillies growing in my backyard. Daddy asked me to make sure to pick all the ripe Chillies while he is away in Central Australia. Today, lots of Chillies are ripe and ready to be picked.

I let Leo have a smell of the Chillies.

Grumpy Pants!!

All my molars seem to be cutting through at once - my gums hurt so much and they are swollen - I don't want to chew anything - I just want to eat soup and yohgurt :(

Mummy... they hurt so much...!!

...I told you that hard biscuits hurt when I eat..!! I don't want it!!

My Gumboots!

Driving the purple car.

I am such a typical boy, playing cars.
I even like to be daring and stand up on the seat!

I am half way to being 2 years old!!

My Daddy is away for 3 weeks, I miss him lots and lots. He has gone with his students to Central Australia to explore the "Great Australian Outback". They are travelling in a big bus! It has been a week and a half since my Daddy left. Mummy & I are counting down the days.
Mummy & I were supposed to be staying with my Por Por & Goong Goong's while my Daddy is away. But I missed my Daddy so badly, I didn't want to sleep in my cot there ( which normally do when I go to spend the day there). I cried & cried, until I made my self sick. You see, Daddy usually puts me to bed every night. I kept wanting to sleep with Mummy becuase I thought she was going to leave me too. I would hold her hand at night so I made sure she didn't go anywhere. Mummy couldn't get any sleep though, so we had to go back home - I felt a lot better then and so did Mummy! So we just go to my Por Por & Goong Goong's place during the day and come home at night to sleep.
I talk to Daddy on the phone almost every day, and Mummy put photos of Daddy up on my bedroom wall so I can see his face. It makes me feel better. I like to give the photos of Daddy a kiss goodnight before bed.

My new 'Wiggles' Uggy's.
