Hi world

A bumper crop of ace pics of me for your enjoyment. I have been celebrating a bunch of firsts - my first roll, my first solid food, first nights in my my own room, first car trips now my car seat faces forward (finally, how boring is looking at the back windscreen!) and on it goes.

So, to the fun:

All good weekends start with cereal, papers and me standing on dad's groin.

Then it's out to the garden where Mum has hung some plants on the fence. She's pretty happy with her handy work.
Rolling over is my favourite past time, along side eating my fist and drooling as much as possible. Mmm, drool...

Hey! I'm not in this! And I don't remember this pic being taken. Someone is going to be sacked if it happens again. Anyway, this is dad and his new BBQ. He is such a white boy geek.
That's it, whoever loads these pics onto the blog is GONE. Although the Weber Q220 does look great loaded with steak, sausos, capsicum, mushrooms and asparagus. And I understand the food was tasty as well. Apparently my lack of teeth is why I didn't get any. Sure...
Now this is better. How cool am I in my heirloom highchair with my grouse bib on? I am about to eat solids for the first time and I was pretty damn happy about it.
Now, someone else is going to be sacked. I am NOT Elmer Fudd. It's important you know that I ate this, and it was yum.

Before i sign off, thanks to Debs for being the number one person for leaving comments. You rule.

Also, keep an eye out for a very special blog, one like you've never seen before. All will be revealed soon...

Cheers

And then....

Just cos you all can't get enough of me,

Here's a collection of pics that really sum up the last few weeks. They can speak for themselves, but I prefer to speak for them.

This is mum's mums group. Mum had them all over the other day for a tour of Campsie then lunch at ours. I got to chill with some homies my own size, which was fun. No one else had a beaut green nappy like mine though. Losers.

The mum's group settled in around the new outdoor furniture and talked about sleeping, feeding and pooing. They talked about us babies sometimes as well.
I met the famous Gibberace the other week. He was in Sydney to talk to some bloke about steam traction engines. Gibby started telling me about that, but I fell asleep.
Mum strikes a pose down near the mighty Cooks River. There is a long story as to why she needed a pic of me in the stroller with her, but you will have to buy next month's Cosmo Pregnancy magazine to hear about it.
My Auntie Alice made me this totally ace elephant. Here's me (in the clothes basket...again) trying to perform a trunkectomy. It's a tricky procedure to pull of when you are just five months old and have no veterinary training.

How cute am I? No, seriously, sometimes I look in the mirror and I am freaked out by how damn adorable I am. Puppies don't come near me 'cos they know they will look like old, fat, ugly footballs in my presence. And yes, I have discovered I have a tongue. New toy!

No, don't ring the child welfare agency - I am OK. It's just a shutter speed thing apparently. I was having a great time with mum on the bed, just laughing and playing. Although it does look like mum is going to eat me. She has mentioned before that I am delicious...I am a bit scared now. If I don't blog again in the next few weeks, come looking for me!

We're a happy team at, er, Geelong

Hi all

AFL Grand Final day was a big one here. Mum's (supposed) team, Geelong, were in with their best chance to win a premiership in about 1000 years. Mum and dad's new outdoor furniture got its chance to shine, which is more than the new BBQ could do, seeing it's still on a boat somewhere between the US and here.

Anyway, I started my big day by relaxing on the bed. As you can see, I am looking mighty fine in blue and white. As for the pose, I draw my inspiration from Uncle Tom.

Later, I headed outside where Dan, Aaron, dad and Gillian were discussing the important things in life - footy, 80s TV shows and how to clean bat poo. Nice outdoor setting. And the TV got a rare outdoor trip.


Aaron was trying to convince me that Melbourne is the greatest place on earth. Yeah, if it's so great, why was I born in Sydney? Anyway, I will be down there soon to check it out for myself.

And there is always time to sit on mum's lap and just take in the sights.
Can't wait to watch the Hawks win next year.

Cheers
