May to September all squished into a nice bite sized morsel

                                                


I was a bit concerned that after my birthday I would get the blues from lack of attention and celebration............


Whatever! I was as far from blue as one can get! Here I am wearing my fabulous hat that was knitted by my amazing Auntie Amelia, isn't she incredible??!!


Soon after my birthday I wasn't very well with one of the bugs that was going about. The good news is that I don't really let things get me down too much and managed to find rather a lot of entertainment and fun in at the hospital.



                                                   

We found these really cool hats to dress up in, how kind of the hospital to provide them in such abundance!

After I got my energy back I was well up for a snack

Feeling much better now!


Granny and Grandpa spent lots of time with me in the garden

Hurry up Grandpa!

Granny Runa and I got some special story time

Auntie Ali, Archie, Toby, Granny Wendy, Mummy and I took a long (hot!) walk to the Fox pub

And Granny Wendy taught me all about crayons!

I wasn't sure about the dinner we went out for aftwerwards

So I decided to connect with Granny instead of my fork



We had a really fun trip out to the Science museum



And lots of cycle rides

Which wore me (and daddy) out

But not for long!


Cool redefined


And again!



To celebrate the Jubilee weekend we went to a street party!
Toby put the bounce in that castle!

 
Archie was a very ferocious tiger


And I became a very ferocious icecream monster


Oh, the excitement!!!

We also took a day trip to the New Forest with Auntie Amelia and Uncle Andy






We got to see the wild horses!


And the Ocean!


And all sorts of balloons, bouncy balls and bouncy castles!








And we even found some postcard worthy piccies too :-)



 







I'ts my birthday!!!!

On the 2nd of May it was my very first birthday (following my actual birthday of course). That means that all of the clever things that you have seen me doing up until now all happened before I was even one - wowee I have been busy! Because I am so fabulous I got to have two birthday celebrations, a family gathering then an actual party with balloons and cake and presents! I hope mummy and daddy are right when they say I get to have a birthday every year!


Becuase the weather was a bit yuck we had the party at a local pub called "The Plough Inn". It couldn't have been nicer, we had balloons, bunting, a ball pit and even cake!



This is me making my grand entrance, dressed as a cowboy and riding a horse of course! Mummy decided to test out her sewing skills and somehow managed to rustle up this outfit which she was pretty chuffed with. Yeeha :-)



I was particularly spoilt as I my 2 grannies and my grandpa flew all the way over to celebrate with me and so many friends came along to join us too. How lucky am I!










While everyone else was catching up, Mummy and I got a wee bit transfixed with the beautiful balloons

And daddy and I played cowboys and Indians

And Daddy practiced his model pose

And then we both spent a moment wondering if he would look better in peach or burgandy............
This is my cake! Mummy was pretty strict, it was sugar free but it still tasted pretty good as it was covered with cream and fruit

Yum!


I hope mummy gets as excited as this everytime I eat cake!

 
My actual birthday was Mummies last day of maternity leave. Boohoo. We made the most of it though and started the day going to the "Great and Small" play group




Toby was there too!

Afterwards wewent back to our house with Granny x 2, Grandpa, Aunt Lesley, Auntie Ali, Uncle Ed, Tony and Archie so we could celebrate once more and eat more cake!
