My New Room

Since we came back from our holiday in Adelaide (sorry I haven''t put up any pictures, but we've been really busy, as you'll see) Mummy and especially Daddy have been busy building me a new room. Now, it's nearly finished, so I thought I'd show everyone some pictures of all the hard work that Daddy has done. I'm very proud!




Firstly, Daddy had to knock down the old wall between my new room and the guest room.


















Then he and Uncle Sean put new beams in to hold the roof up!



The the fun started... the new walls were built.....














Then plaster boarded.....













And then the cornice went on.

Daddy even built me a cool wardrobe.







Mummy and Daddy are going to start painting this week, so I should move in before Easter! WOW. I'm so excited. I'll put up some more photos when it's all finished.

Christmas in Geelong

Wow. What busy month we've had here in Geelong. Mummy and Daddy have been busy working on the house and getting it ready to make my room during the school holidays. Daddy even used a jack hammer to knock down the old bbq/pond in the back yard. It was very noisy!


We also had our first Christmas in Geelong together. I got LOTS of presents and was very spoilt. We had lots of fun unwrapping everything and putting all the toys together.




I even helped Daddy put together the worm farm he got!



On Boxing Day, Daddy and I kicked back and watched the cricket.


It has been very hot here over Christmas, good thing I got a pool from Grandma and a cool water wheel from Aunty Kat. I love playing in the pool on the hot afternoons.




Well must go, I have new DVD's to watch and toys to play with.

It's Been a Long Time....

Hello everyone,


Well, it's been a while since I wrote her 'cos I have been SOOOOOO busy. Mummy and Daddy and I moved into our new house. It's been very exciting. They have been doing lots of sanding and painting the last few months getting the new place ready to live in, I even helped too.

We finally moved in on the 27th of October. Grandma and Grandpa Ellery came over to help Mummy and Daddy clean the old house and settle everything into the new one. They all did lots of work, and now the place looks great.

I have been busy at childcare learning how to brush my teeth this month, which is a good thing, because I have just got 3 new teeth! I'm still a bit lop sided though with 6 teeth on the top and now 3 on the bottom.

Well I must go, it's time for my bath, check out the "Bubble Afro" daddy gave me the other night! It was so funny!

MY 1st BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS

WOW I turned 1 year old this week. I've had a very exciting couple of weeks too. It all started when Mummy and Daddy took me to get my first haircut. My hairdresser Nikki was great and managed to cut my hair even though I found it hard to sit still.

Next, Mummy, Daddy and I went to Adelaide for Uncle Cameron and Aunty Jodie's wedding. It was a great night (I heard). Aunty Jodie looked just beautiful and Uncle Cameron and Daddy were very handsome in their kilts.

While we were in Adelaide, I had a birthday party at Great Grandma and Grandpa Ellery's house with all my Adelaide friends and family. I even had a little party and Grandma and Grandpa Page's house with Aunty Karen and Declan. Grandma Page made me a Humpty Dumpty cake. It was yummy.

On Thursday it was my Birthday. 1 year old already! Gee time flies. I got lots of cool toys from everyone, I especially like my Roll'n'roar Dinosaur. Mummy even let me have cake for breakfast. It was delicious.

Today, I had all my friends over to celebrate. We had a great time playing outside while Mum and Dad had a BBQ with all the other parents. Mummy made me a Koala cake, he looked SOOOO fluffy, and he tasted good too. It has been an exhausting day and now I'm ready for bed. I hope all my birthdays are this exciting.

Grace's 1st Birthday Party

What a week! Last weekend, Mummy, Daddy and I went to my friend Grace's 1st Birthday party. She had a wonderful party with lots of her family and friends there, she even brought her pet lamb Cassie!

We had a wonderful time. Aunty Allison had made a great cat cake for Grace, it was very yummy. We all had lots of party food and enjoyed some fairy bread for a treat - gee those hundreds and thousands get everywhere!

Sunday was my first Father's Day. I gave Daddy a "Beer Bible", a HUGE toblerone and some beer. We spent the day at our new house where Daddy plastered the kitchen ceiling, Mummy painted the study, and I generally explored, and ate any interesting objects found on the ground.

Next weekend we are going to visit everyone in Adelaide, I can't wait. I am going to have a birthday party at Great Grandmas house, and I even get to have a sleep over at Grandma and Grandpa Page's house while Mum and Dad go to Aunty Jodie and Uncle Cameron's Wedding. It's going to be a BIG weekend again.
