A busy Wednesday!!!

Max & I started at Mainly music. Its a place were you can sing & dance and even play with instruments. We both had lots of fun. Straight after Music we had to rush to swimming. After all that exercise I was worn out and had a BIG afternoon sleep.

Then this afternoon Aunty Rae came to visit.. it was great to see her. Aunty Rae & Uncle Kevin are going to look after me on Friday while Mummy has dinner with the Antenatal Mums.

Our next stop of the day was to the Meades... Its almost time for Andie to go back to Sydney so we went to say BYE. I also got to see Leslie & Jess. I did lots of showing off by telling Leslie all the sounds animals make. She thought I was very funny :-)

Catch...

Tonight when Da got home I went outside to play with him. We played Catch. Mummy thought I was super clever caused I put my arms out and even managed to CATCH the ball as Da threw it.

16 months

Today I am 16months old...

Mummy can't believe how fast the months are flying by!!

I am now saying soo many words that mummy has lost track of them all. However my latest favourite is "STUCK". I'm very cute as I say it. I am normally pulling on something that I can't move.. I make straining noises then say "STUCK".

Look at my friend Amber.. I love how still she stays when I play with her. She doesnt even mind me sitting on her. What a good doggy she is.

Only 1 month untill we go to visit Aunty Debbie!!!

Our first weekend apart!!!

On Friday afternoon Honey & Da packed up the car to take ME to the beach for the weekend. Mummy stayed in Hamilton to spend the weekend with Andie. We stopped in to see Uncle David & Aunty Heidi on the way... and guess what. I had my first ride on a horse! This is me on Petra. We are both 1.

Uncle David rang to tell Mummy.. she didn't believe him cause Mum has always said I am not to ride a race horse!!! But Aunty Heidi got a photo!! I had the best weekend.. But a Huge thank you to Honey & Da for taking such good care of me.

Mummy went out on Saturday night. Since its her first night on the town in 2 years Honey thought It should make the website!!!

(Deb, Andie, Mummy, Jess)

Mummy was so pleased to see me this afternoon. She had missed me LOADS & LOADS..

Elise

This morning Mummy & I went to visit Elise and her Mummy Leonie & her brother Ben. Elise is only 7 weeks older than me. We had lots of fun together.

Andie

Andie is home from Sydney. Mummy & have been looking foward to seeing her. So on Thursday night we popped in to say HI. While I thought Andie was pretty cool.. her Doggy Mac was even better!!!

Andie is home for the whole week. So this weekend I get to have the weekend at the beach with Honey & Da while Mummy hangs out with Andie...

Mummy & Me

Mummy & I enjoyed our second 'Mothers Day' by playing at the beach.

Mothers Day Weekend

This weekend we were in Whangamata. And I had the best time.

SATURDAY

This morning Mummy, Honey & I went into town and had breakfast at Coast Resturant with the Collins Girls.

Then on Saturday night I made my first trip down to the Whanga Club. We meet Wendy & Wayne there. I thought it was great wandering round talking to everyone.

SUNDAY

Today is Mothers Day. Uncle David, Aunty Heidi & luca came to have a special sunday lunch. Since it was such a beautiful day we ate out in the sun.

After lunch we went to play on the beach. I had fun Playing with Aunty Heidi

and bossing Da around.

MONDAY

This morning Mummy & I decided that Honey would be organised faster without me making more mess so we went to the Habour park.

I was a really good girl and slept the whole way home. Which meant that I had lots of energy to visit Janny & Pat. I love walking around Janny's Garden.

Motorbike

On friday we stopped in at Uncle David's & Aunty Heidi's on the way to the beach. I was very excited to see Uncle David. He was in a very playful mood and we played all sorts of crazy games. The highlight was riding on the motorbike.

What FUN!!!!

Birthday Girls lunch

Yesterday after Creche Mummy & I had to go and pick Janny & Honey up from a birthday girls lunch. The birthday girls are Janny's special friends. They have been friends since Da was little.

(These are the Birthday Girls)

Pat's Grandson Declan had come to pick her up. So I got to meet him. He is 5months old.

Then after my bath Mummy showed me a special treat. Mummy brought me some new things to draw with. Blackboard and Chalk. Cool thanks mum

Messy Me

Since it was such a nice day I ate my lunch outside in the sun.

I got a bit messy!!! I like to be the Boss and I thought I should feed myself.

This afternoon we went out to visit Mummy's cousin Mike. He's not very well. But now the doctors know whats wrong they are going to fix him up really soon. After seeing Mike, Kylie, Grant & the dogs we went to pick Aunty Rae up.

Its Aunty Rae's birthday on Firday.

Honey is taking Aunty Rae out for drinks and nibbles as an early birthday celebration. I was very excited that Aunty Rae was going to sit by me in the Car.

But I didnt like having to drop them off!! Infact I was pretty cross that I couldn't go too.

Ouch..

SUNDAY

This morning we went to Chartwell & Honey brought me some new clothes. All in size2!! Thanks Honey & Da I love my new clothes.

Then this after noon I put on my flash top and we went to visit Janny & Pat but first we stopped at Rae & Kevin's. Uncle Kevin gave me yummy chocolate. I liked it alot. But Uncle Kevin didn't like how messy I got :-)

MONDAY

I love playing outside. This morning I had lots of fun chasing my balls.

I felt like a rest after all that running so I climbed up on the chair. But I didnt wait for help getting down and I fell... I gave Mum & Honey a HUGE fright. There was lots of blood and it hurt lots. I grazed my chin and put my teeth thru my botttom lip. Da says I look like I have a Moko on my chin.

Horse Kisses

This morning Mummy & Honey took me out to see Uncle David & Aunty Heidi. I fell asleep in the car and only woke up as we pulled in the drive. I looked around and said "Where are we?" When Mummy told me I got so excited especially as Luca came to greet us.

I had lots of fun playing at the farm.

Aunty Heidi took us for a walk to see Nelly. She is a very pretty horse. Nelly and I were so excited to see each other, we even tried to give each other a big KISS. But her wiskers were very tickly.

Here's what I've been up to...

Here are some highlights that Mummy caught on camera this week.

Some of my favourite things

• Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Every night at 5 Oclock I am allowed to watch Mickey mouse. I get super excited as soon as I see it and start dancing and say "MICKEY"

• Pen's and paper. As soon as I spy some I start saying "Paper paper". I'm only allowed to draw if I sit at the table tho.

• This week I like this story best.

And I'm so clever I know what is behind every flap. I made Da laugh this morning when I told him.. "are big" (elephant) "Raaa" (lion) "Sssss" (snake) "cocodile" -while snaping hands (crocodile) "tweet" (parrot -bird) "OOOOH" (gorilla) "raffe" (giraffe)

WEDNESDAY

Mummy had got me all dressed and ready to go.. and then I found a water in my paddling pool, so while Mummy wasn't looking I climbed in!

This week I had a really special treat. Instead of just having my normal Wednesday visit to Janny & Pat's..

I got to stay the whole afternoon and even sleep over -as Honey & Da were staying the night and Mummy was feeling sick.

FRIDAY

Honey was busy getting rid of the mess with the hose. It looked like fun so I went to help!!!

Its taken me a long time to like my rocking horse, but now I do I want to share it. So I took my special friend for a ride!!!

(Mummy & I are very lucky that we have Honey & Da to look after us. Thank you for all you help this week Honey!)
