2007-10-17 Beau, Ben, and Strawberries!

Aiysha: Charlie had a party at Jungle Gym last week - it was during Cloggy's sleep, so Daddy took me. It was brilliant fun! We just jumped on, climbed up, and fell down on anything we liked! We were even allowed to win prizes on some of the activities! I tried to climb the rope right up to the top to ring the bell, but I got stick just before the top by a big knot - I was sad, but tried again and again, but I was too tired. The only person to do it was Callum. We had some party food there, but I didn't eat much of it as it wasn't very nice.

On Sunday, we went to Jill, Michael, Ben and beau's place! It was fantastic! I fed the cows, collected eggs, held rabbits, looked at their new theatre, and ate lots of lovely food! It was such a funny day, and once again, Ben and Beau were so nice to me! I think we're all growing up very quickly! I rode my bike around with Beau - he was very good on his bike, and I was chasing him most of the time.

I met a boy called Luke who rides his bike around our close - I am hoping he will come around with me on Halloween!

We did our first strawberry picking on Sunday! It was amazing! I wasn't feeling too well last weekend, but the strawberries made me feel a whole lot better! Yummy! Grandma Sue would have enjoyed it, although there were a lot of flies. Poor Cloggy, Daddy keeps sticking slices of strawberries on her forehead...

Cloggy: I can now move backwards really well, but when I try to move forward, I feel like I am parachuting! Yeah! Mummy makes me laugh so much when she pretends to be a bird or a dog! She's a funny one!

C: We now planted out lychee tree in the front, so hopefully it will grow really big, and give us free lychees!

S: Can't wait for those lychees to come budding through! And those mangoes...where are those mangoes?

Meals: Mint and Chilli Lamb, Strawberries!

2007-10-05 The Tooth Fairy, and Daddys Birthday!

Aiysha: The tooth fairy visited me after my first tooth was removed by the nice dentist on Wacky Wednesday last week! I had to dress up in my pyjamas for school, which was lucky as I was in my pyjamas for the dentist, and I even fell asleep in the car on the way home! At the dentist, they put some special glasses on me so I could watch a film I chose while the tooth fairy jumped on my tooth to loosen it! It was really fun. I didn't like the feeling of my mouth being really big though, and it upset me.

I snuggled up in the evening, and we had a pizza for dinner, even though I didn't eat much of it, and mostly ate garlic bread.

I put my tooth in the dolls house, and when I woke up in the morning though, I found a glass jar filled with pink water and flower petals, and $5! I was so happy I had to wake up Mummy and Daddy really early! They told me to go back to bed, which I didn't want to do, but when I got up I told them all about it!

I also went to Callums Party with Khia, and we ate lots of naughty food!

On Saturday, we took Daddy down to Mullaloo Beach to cut his birthday cake! Mummy and I did some surfing, and we then opened one card, which told Daddy that we were going to take him to go dolphin watching at Rockingham on Sunday! It was so exciting, and we had to get up really early! We set out on the boat at about 8.45am, and we saw dolphins almost immediately! It was excellent! We then went over to an island where they trained people to escape from submarines, and there the dolphins swam right next to the boat - it was amazing! We spent about 2 hours on the boat, and the man in charge was very funny! He even let me drive the boat too! I had lots of biscuits to keep me going. I sang Happy Birthday to Daddy so many times!

After the trip, we went to a cafe and had brunch - Mummy and Daddy had an English breakfast, and I had pancakes. It was yummy!

We got home in the afternoon, and Mummy and Daddy decided to clear the front where Grandpa Arthur cleared at Christmas. It was hard work getting all the roots out. I helped a little then rode my bike until it started raining really hard.

On Sunday, we finished clearing it, I went round to Barry and Rosalyn's and made scones, Daddy came over to fix Barry's computer, and he then got the mulch to cover the front. We were all very busy! Cloggy sat in her buggy watching. She is so close to crawling!

This week it's school holidays, and I've seen Chloe (and her family), Jack and Conor, and I have Charlie's party this weekend and we're going to see Beau and Ben at Jill's and Michael's place on Sunday! So many people to see!

Cloggy is lovely! We have so much fun together!

Lin Lin, one of Daddy's friends from England, came to visit us for a few days, and it was really funny! It was nice having them read me stories, and they gave me lots of nice toys! Thank you!

Cloggy: I am so close to crawling! Only a couple of weeks to go! I do not like it when there is a lot of noise in the house! I am such a light sleeper! I love my big sister very much, but her friends are very noisy! I just want to join in and play with them! Mummy's friends Sinead gave us a baby walker, and I can move backwards in it. Maybe I'll be moving forwards soon!

C: Our garden it looking amazing now! Everything seems to be growing so much! Still not warm enough to go in the pool, but we don't think we need our fire anymore! Summer is coming!

S: What a lovely birthday! Thank you all for your good wishes! Seeing dolphins was amazing!
