Moon Hopper

I said that I wanted a moon hopper and all I got in return was "If you are a good boy this and if you are a nice boy this and a whole heap of crap about Santa.

Well damn you all I say I have made my own moon hopper and if you look closely it is my procured black balloon. They said it couldn't be done but I know better than everyone and the proof is in the picture.

They keep telling me it will pop but I know it won't because it is my special toy and it will never leave me.

In other news, the olds have put a lock on the pantry. I knew that I shouldn't have let them know that I could reach the "special" shelf but my chocolate addiction got the better of me. I guess they had no choice after mum came in and saw me taking big bites from her special chocolate.

Shrek has also come to see me. I am pretending to be scared by him. Secretly I love the thrill of peeking at the big green Oaf. Just today I ran around the corner into my brothers room and bam there he was standing right in front of me. Stopped me in my tracks that did. He has also appeared unannounced in the lounge and under the stairs. The olds should really do something about vermin like him.

Just mum and me

This is just me and my mum. She is really nice to me and looks after me everyday at home. Dad seems to leave every morning and go out for milk. It takes him ages to come back but I reckon it is because he has to milk the cow, pasteurise the milk, make a plastic bottle, seal it and then get it home cold. He is very clever.

Anyway back to mum. She looks after me and we have a lot of fun together. She has recently invented something that I don't like that much though......... the naughty step. This is where I go if I am having a little bit too much fun. The other day I was put on it for touching something that I am apparently not allowed to touch. I don't get that, given that everything in this world has been put there for me, me and only me.

This is me on the so called "naughty step". If you look closely you will notice my procured balloon and you will also notice that I am innocent. Innocent of what you may ask? Innocent of kicking the cat. That furry piece of flea infested meat was in my way and she was asking for it. Anyway, I didn't do it.

Mum and Dad are going to U2 tonight. Dad reckons that the stage is just going to be a giant soap box for a short-haired activist to preach about poverty and world hunger. Better him going than me.

Toot Toot Chugga Chugga

Hi Team,

I have learnt how to drive Dad's car. Stuff Greg Wiggle and the big red car this is the big blue car and you better get out of my way. I have got the horn toot sorted, I have the gear change down pat and if you cut me off you will even get a little miniature bird flicked at you out the window.

I am growing very tall. I can now reach all the goodies in the pantry. The other day mum and dad were ignoring my demands for chocolate so I bought it out to them and demanded they feed it to me. They gave in of course. I have them wrapped around my little miniature finger.

Life has been great recently. I took mum and dad to Lollipops, it was okay maybe even a little immature for me. You have to remember that now I can talk and am therefore a fully fledged adult. Quite often my Dad and I will have lengthy conversations about all manner of things. I get the feeling that sometimes he just doesn't understand! I guess that's what happens when you get old and stuck in your ways.

Anyway, at Lollipops I played in the pen full of balls, went down the slide, chatted up a few young ladies and procured a new balloon. All in all it was a fairly successful trip.

Next week Bono is coming to my house. He is a jerk. In about 10 weeks my little brother is coming to stay at my house, he is not a jerk.

Bye

Went to Lollipops and stole this balloon.

The end.

There's a Meerkat in here somewhere...

Hello everyone - this is me at the Auckland Zoo in the weekend.

The elephant came out of his lair especially for me. I was just walking around the corner and low and behold there he was waiting to say Hi.

My favourite animals were the Orangutan who sat right by the glass and waved at me (so of course, I felt I HAD to wave back), the Tiger who played in his pool with a ball and the Sea Lions.

I also liked the flamingos as they are "birds" (my favourite word of all time). Above is a photo I took of them - aren't they snazzy?

I had my first bout on the "naughty step" yesterday. I decided it was time for me to start seeing how far I can push Mummy. Now she has a huge fat tummy and can't run after me, I am taking the opportunity to be a bit of a Turd. At first I thought the naughty step was funny but after the 2nd time I realised that it wasn't much fun. Must remember to behave!!

Mummy stuck pictures of the fellas from "Finding Nemo" on my bedroom walls yesterday. I got very very excited and when I went to bed last night I had to say goodnight to all of my friends. I must admit it was very cute.

Adios everyone for now...

Pop Art - read me a story!

Here I am giving my Great Nana Nel a cuddle and also getting my Pop Art to read me "Where's Spot?".

I have had lots of visitors lately. I had both sets of Nanas & Poppas visit me in the weekend and then my Great Nana & Poppa Baron came to see me yesterday. We had great fun running around outside. I did most of the running and it was funny to watch the old folk and the preggo (Mum) trying to run after me.

I have had a bit of a cold and have had "candlesticks" running out of my nose for a whole week. Mum & Dad should buy shares in the tissue company.

I have learnt recently that is quite fun to have a "tanty". Mum was trying to feed and bathe me the other night and I decided the time was right to break out the tanty. The only thing it got me was hardly any dinner (I wouldn't eat it), a very short bath and early to bed. Hang on a mo... this is not really working for me. Note to self: Behave!

Right better go and find out what the olds are keeping in the cupboard under the stairs...
