Now I am two

Reading Peter Rabbit with Daddy

So now I am two years old. Time really does go very fast.

Two years ago I had only known my family for just over two weeks, I was all small, cuddly and crying was the only way I could let them know how I was feeling.

Twelve months ago I was crawling round, making a few sounds and

NOW

I am two, walking about, running round, into EVERYTHING and talking like a proper little chatter box. I had a lovely day on my birthday and have attached some videos of me with some of my presents.

Fun with fishes - my 2nd birthday treat

On Wednesday 23rd April 2014 I went with Mummy and Daddy on a big adventure.  It was a treat for my second birthday.

We got up early and got the train from Shrewsbury to Birmingham New Street.  We managed to get seats but the train was very busy, so was Birmingham New Street Station.  

We arrived just after 10.25 am and met up with my godmother, Aunty Angharad and her children, Eleanor and Jacob.  Uncle Martin could not come as he was at work.  We will have to make sure he comes next time we go!!

First we had to find a Starbucks as Daddy needed his morning coffee!!  I had some juice and a tub of fruit.  Then we went for a walk to find where we were going.  After getting a bit confused we found the Sea Life Centre.  My clever Mummy had pre-booked tickets so we could walk passed a long queue of other families.  It was really exciting.

We all had a look at some of the tanks of fish including some small sharks and lots of penguins.  You could see into the penguins tank and watch them playing on the ice.  Then you could walk and look at them swimming under the water. 

By now it was lunch time and I was feeling hungry.  We got our hands stamped (so we could go back in later) and went to the Slug and Lettuce for lunch.  I had some lovely fish fingers and chips. 

We went back to Sea Life Centre and saw the rest of the exhibits.  The jellyfish and the huge turtles were my Mummy's favourites.  Like my Uncle Martin I liked the penguins best.  We also saw some otters, clown fish, and hammer head sharks.  I was very brave and stroked a crab and a star fish.

Soon it was time to come home and I was very sleepy.  I fell asleep on the train in Birmingham and woke up in Shrewsbury.  I had a really lovely day and I've got Tyler Turtle to cuddle as a memory.

My first food festival

On Sunday 30th June 2013 I went with Mummy and Daddy to the first every Shrewsbury Food Festival in the Quarry.

The weather was fabulous and I saw lots of stalls selling food and drink.  There was a Mummy pig and seven piglets and also a cow with her calf. 

I enjoyed watching Marcus Bean do a cookery demonstration and also had some lovely pork pie with a Stilton pastry crust.  It was a very tiring day and I slept for twelve hours when we got home.  I am looking forward to going again next year and trying lots of tasty food.

Afternoon tea!!

Here is a picture of me on a playdate with my best friend Alice who is just under a year older.  My Mummy and Daddy are friends with Alice's Mummy and Daddy.  Alice has a baby brother called Jacob too.  I enjoy our playdates together, here we are eating raisins.

New shoes

Hello Everyone

Sorry I have been quiet for a little while, I have been so busy having lots of adventures so today you'll get three blogs for the price of one!!

Just under a month ago I went shopping with Mummy and my Grandma.  We went to a shop which didn't sell anything but shoes and a nice man held me feet and tried to work out what size shoes I take.  Once Mummy knew which ones would fit, my lovely Grandma treated me to my first pair of shoes.  They are very comfy and I'm hoping to be walking very soon, however I do wear them for crawling round. 

I will probably need new shoes every six to eight weeks as my feet get bigger but these shoes will be the most special. 

It's been a little bit itchy for me!

Hello everyone.

Hope you are having a nice Bank Holiday. I am growing up so fast. I am 13 months old and able to stand tall not holding on to anything. I'm not walking yet as I can crawl so quick. I am also enjoying trying lots of new tastes, my favourites so far are my Moley's Spag Bol and garlic bread. I also love creme brûlée and chocolate mousse. Another favourite are marmite sandwiches.

Since my birthday my Grandma and Mole have invited us to Son Bou in September and have helped me to get a passport. It's rather exciting but I will chat more about holidays very soon.

The other thing that has happened is I've caught some horrid spotty thing that Mummy calls chickenpox. My arms look like a page in a join the dots book but I am being very brave and not scratching too much. It has made me feel a bit poorly though and meant I had to miss nursery on Friday. At least I have Grandma and Mole close by for hugs when Mummy and Daddy are at work.

I have some exciting days ahead, I am going to Barmouth, Shrewsbury Carnival and the very first Shrewsbury Food Festival!! Mummy is on holiday in June too, I hope we have some exciting adventures.
