Cheeky monkeys!!






Thursday 30th May 2009

Well I need to start this week's blog with some "shout outs!" - so here goes, in date order: Welcome to the world Hannah Rose O'Malley, a new playmate for me when we go and visit Sean and Marie in Coventry, Happy 1st birthday to Ben and 30th birthday to Vicky in Hong Kong and happy 1st birthday to Henry and Julia (31 not 1) in England!! Phew - a busy week for mummy and the post office!!

Well other than sending out well wishes to people we have had a busy week this week. We went to the zoo on Saturday and saw lots of different animals. My favourite by far was the baboons - they were great fun and i spent ages watching them through the glass, they were very playful and one started throwing up sand at me!!! We also saw some elephants, tigers, rhinos and otters. However it was so hot we left at lunchtime, so we are going to have to go back to see all the other animals - never mind!!!

On Sunday we headed down to the East Coast to meet Harriet, Phil and Cara for Sunday drinks. There was a big storm before we got there, which cooled the air slightly. Cara and I did a fantastic job of entertaining everyone in the nearby vicinity, which left the grown-ups to talk about boring stuff!!!

We did the usual music and swimming this week, which was fun. Olly at music has graduated now to the bigger boy class which is sad, but the teacher says that i should be able to join him next term - yeah!! His mummy says that it is a lot harder as not only do you have to hit the instruments when the teacher stops the music you need to pass on the baton!!! I think this will help me when it comes to pass the parcel though!! 

We also met up with some more babies this week - Tuesday we went to meet hannah and Charlotte, they are heading to HK on holiday, so we passed on lots of tips. We also got to play on Thomas the tank - i giggled the whole way round, it was Charlotte's first attempt at rides, but she seemed to enjoy it once she worked out what was going on!! Then this afternoon we headed over to Cara's house for a girly afternoon of playing, there were loads of fun toys and windows for us to put handprints all over (sorry Harriet) and also some yummy cakes and sausage rolls!!

I hope you like this week's pictures - there is me at the zoo, me helping daddy pass the balance test and helping mummy catch hula hoops on the Wii Fit, me in my lovely outfit and getting stuck on the bean bag (mummy thought it was a better idea to take a picture of me shouting to get off, rather than actually helping me get off).

Well, think mummy has got an action packed week planned for us next week and we have a bank holiday for labour day here, so i am sure there will be lots of stories next week.

That's all for now
Love to everyone
