NZ Adventure - the PGPs

Well the next thing I knew, Daddy was ill in hospital somewhere and Mummy and "Uncle" Al were off visiting him every day. I had my Proxy GrandParents (PGPs) to continue my adventure with though...

See, they fed me and everything! This is Heather, Roger & Sue. Terry took the photo.

They took me to Roger's Giant Carrot - I'm told that Roger is completely responsible for it being there to mark the carrot-growing area of NZ... Well anyway, Roger is a very good story reader which is what really mattered.

The PGPs also took me to the top of a real steaming, smoking volcano... I bet they only told my mum about that one when they got me back safe and sound!

NZ Adventure

Mum, Dad, me and my mate Allan all went on a big plane. Luckily I was strapped into my car seat nice and safe. It was pretty exciting and I even had my own TV and headphones... (actually I held Allan's hand most of the way)

The other guy's birthday

Very strange, Dario (same name just in Italian) has his birthday the day after mine (and he's a year older).  We went to his birthday party with Thomas the Tank Engine and his mates... We all had a ball!

We had food and everything!

Happy birthday Dario and his brother Danny!!

Happy birthday to me!

It was my birthday so I had a party in the park. People brought presents which I thought was a great idea!

I had to sit down and have something to eat and observe a bit...

Jessie baked the most wonderful cake for us to eat, and I even got to blow out the candle (sort of - it was a bit windy!)

She made sure I ate some of the cake as well....

Lots of the family were there - 'Aunty' Lorraine and Uncle Eddy

And, amongst the others, 'Aunty' Rhonda, Daniel and his mummy and daddy.

All in all I had a wonderful time!

Shoesies

Dressing up is great fun. Mummy's sandals are just a little big but I persevered!


I could even walk - tadah!

Doggy daze

This is my very furry friend Bart. I think I confused him because at one point he was walking backwards...

Man about the house...

I just thought I'd have a little clean up. Mummy was nice enough to get out the vacuum cleaner. When she left it for a moment I decided to take over. Good job eh!

Day out on the bike

It was a lovely sunny day, so we went off to Homebush Bay. Of course, I took my new bike - cool hey!














I had great fun jumping between the logs (Daddy did help just a bit).

Babe in boots...

I quite like dressing up, especially in Mummy's shoes....



















We found this lovely furry hat in a shop - very warm, very Daniel Boon.

Happy birthday sis!

It was my sister's birthday today, so we all celebrated.



I gave her a present - I think she liked it!









I whispered a special "happy birthday" into her ear.

Happy 15th to my bruvvers

Today it was my bruvvers' birfday. They went bike riding with Daddy and we all had a picnic in the park.

Happy birthday Marlon & Lyndon!

Gone fishing

Recently we took a few days out and made our way west of Sydney across the mountains past Lithgow to try our luck with the trout.


I definitely wasn't left out. I was careful to watch what Mummy was doing!
This might not look like fishing, but Terry made a great adopted grandfather for a few days.

Heather was always such fun too - even in the wind and stones.











I could hardly move, but I was warm...

The cottage we stayed at had the most amazing cubby house. It even has a bay window and a slippery-dip!


The alpacas were very friendly!




We even got in a bit of fishing - Mummy's first go at fly fishing!

Hair raising...

A visit from my godfather JM was...

Well, electrifyingly hair raising!
