Tempus Fugit!

My! This week has flown by. I even forgot to do a post at the end of the weekend so I thought I'd better fill the gap with a quick one.

Dad's off this week and we've been having a lovely time in Blackmill. He's also been trying out his new camera and hasn't had time to help me with the Blog. There's been loads of photos taken so I thought I'd just put some up for you to see as a stop gap until the next proper post.



As you can see - all the major facial expressions are represented.

Even some unflattering ones but the big fellas still think I'm cute.


I'll leave it there and will try and post again by the end of the weekend. Have fun.

I'll sign off with the three of us going out to the shops. Check my ace harness and fetching bear suit. GGrrrrrrrrr!

If the hat fits...

...wear it!

Hi everyone!

I've been so excited about being able to fit into some of my new hats that I'll cut the chat and get straight to the photos...



Brilliant!

It seems that every day there is something new at the moment. For example, on Wednesday I realised that I had hands and, as if that wasn't enough, the next day I had legs. I don't know how I missed them before.

I've also started playing some great new games. My current favourite is 'Daddy put the dummy in, I spit it out, Daddy put the dummy in...'. It's a great game of skill and tactics. Maybe it's just beginner's luck but I have won every time so far.

Speaking of new things, I have started to try out my new chair. It's called a Bumbo for some reason. I can't sit in it for too long at the moment because I get too carried away and forget to hold my head up properly but it's nice to have my own seating arrangements.


I'm also learning how to relax on Mam and Dad's seats when they are not using them.


I'm still trying to crawl. All the movements are there...I just need to work on my technique and, one day, I'll beat the fella on the giraffe to the end of my play mat.


I'll sign off for now. Thank you for reading my blog. I'll leave you with two new videos on youtube...just clink the links below.

SALE! SALE! SALE!

Hi everyone. Seems like everywhere is having a sale at the moment so I thought I'd have one too. Yes, today's blog comes with a whopping nine pictures for the same price you would pay for six, I'll even throw in free delivery!

It's been a while since I posted because Dad had to go back to work and I have been busy trying to cheer him up when he gets home.

Last time I went to see Mel the health I weighed in at 12lb 8oz. Like everyone else it seemed I had put on a bit over Christmas but, unlike everyone else, I have no intention of losing it. The extra inches I have gained mean that I can now fit into my real nappies which are good for the environment but bad for your washing machine.


I won't ask if my bum looks big in this.

When you are my age, clothes come in age size (does it stay that way?). I have now moved on to 3-6 months in some styles and can now get into some of the really funky stuff that has been teasing me from my wardrobe.


Note matching bib. Essential this season.


Like, woah, man! This was sent by Auntie Miriana in London. You can tell because this sort of thing is hard to come by in the Ogmore Valley.

I thought you might like to see where I sleep at night before I start grumbling and the big fellas let me sleep with them. Here's me enjoying the ace mobile I got for Christmas.

Lots of weird animals live at the other end of my cot. No wonder I have funny dreams!

Speaking of weird animals, Ringo can now make his eyes light up yellow!

This morning Mam and Dad went to the farmer's market in Cardiff. Cardiff is a bit like Bridgend but bigger and has a better football team. The market is right next to the Millennium Stadium where Wales beat England at rugby. Today was the first time I saw it.


And that's about it for now except to thank Uncle Simon for coming to visit me this week. Mam and Dad did take a photo but it was blurred so we'll have to try again next time I see him. Sorry!

Happy New Year!

Hi all,

I hope you all had fun seeing in the New Year. I didn't manage to stay awake until midnight but Mam and Dad did.

2008 started...err...quietly.


Much later on we all went for a walk (or in my case, a push) along the mountain in front of our house. I wanted to paddle in the stream but Mam said it was too cold.

I was wrapped up lovely and warm in my pram, though. So much so that I had a little sleep on the way home.


Not done much else today apart from working on my staring technique. I'll take on all comers this year. Especially people that wake me up when I'm having a little sleep!


Until next time.
