Gold Coast with the Family

2009-11-02T09:07:00.002+13:00

I was very lucky as I got to go to the sunny, warm Gold Coast a while ago. I loved it as I didn't have to wear long pants or a sweatshirt! It was great fun hanging out with Olivia and James.

Hanging with Molly

2009-08-06T13:31:00.001+12:00

I had a great day with my friend Molly. We hung out at the library then went into town, on the bus, and had some lunch!

Didn't know that we would be matching when we got dressed tho!!

Waiting for the bus

2009-08-06T13:28:00.001+12:00

The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round..... oh there is the bus, but it is going the wrong way!!!

So much talent...

2009-08-05T19:10:00.001+12:00

Isn't this great!! It is the sculpture that Paul did for us. It's Olivia, James and ME!! We all love it. Paul is sooooooooo clever!

I am getting very good at climbing our big tree!

Me and my scooter...

2009-08-01T20:04:00.000+12:00

Is it summer already?

2009-08-01T19:58:00.002+12:00

No, these are just some photos that my mummy found.... and that we had forgotten to put on the blog way back in February!! I do remember having lots of fun with Grandpa building my little pool!

Puzzle Marathon

2009-06-14T14:28:00.001+12:00

It is great when Olivia and James are here. Yesterday morning we did lots of puzzles!! They ended up all finished and spread out on the lounge floor.

More Soccer Shots

2009-06-14T14:19:00.001+12:00

I am getting very good at soccer now. Its hard work running around after the ball - I need lots of water!

Bath time

2009-06-14T14:17:00.002+12:00

yep my bath is very deep!!!

On the move

2009-05-05T21:36:00.002+12:00

Grandma and Grandpa are moving so we had a bit of a working bee to help sort out Grandma's garden. There were lots of pots to move and I did my bit in helping. Lucky I have big muscles!!!

Birthday Girl

2009-05-05T21:24:00.003+12:00

Olivia turned 11!! We had a small afternoon tea party for her - and watched her open pressies. It was Gruncles birthday the same day, so he shared in the party fun too with his very own candle to blow out!!

We all had a game of soccer

2009-05-05T21:19:00.002+12:00

Liv had her soccer game before mine, and I had to wait and wait and wait.... oh it seemed such a long time!

Olivia was playing goal keep for the first half - and her team were doing so well that Liv had to wait and wait and wait also!!!

The game

2009-05-05T21:11:00.004+12:00

Because I am just a youngster our soccer team is called the Midgets. It was only our first game and our coach was not very organised so we didnt have our soccer shirts.... hence the bibs. It was a great game and I loved everyone watching me. I was able to wave turn around and give my supporters the thumbs up and at one point even blew mum a kiss!!!

Like my new green socks?

2009-05-05T21:07:00.002+12:00

Soccer Practice

2009-05-05T20:56:00.002+12:00

I had to try out my gear before game day....

Computer Nerd

2009-04-14T20:03:00.001+12:00

I had to show Ross how to use the computer as he didn't know how to play the game!! hehe.

Easter morning

2009-04-13T20:38:00.002+12:00

I was a little bit lucky on Easter Sunday.... I found a trail of easter eggs and at the end was a present.... with some new pj's!! Don't tell anyone, but I ate one of my easter eggs BEFORE breakfast!! (it was just a small one Mummy!).

Easter bunnies

2009-04-13T20:30:00.001+12:00

Surely there was something strange in those Easter eggs??!!

Hurry Up Soccer Season....

2009-04-13T20:29:00.001+12:00

I am so excited about my new shin guards that I wear them without my socks! Come on Mum.... lets go and get my soccer socks!

Next All White...?

2009-04-13T20:15:00.003+12:00

James and I have been practicing soccer in our backyard. I have been practicing being a goalie - but didn't stay still long enough for a photo, so there are a few action shots. Pity there are no goalie positions when I play in the midgets league this season.

Growing Up

2009-04-13T20:12:00.002+12:00

I have been going so well with my bikeriding that I have now got rid of my training wheels and sold that bike.... and now am riding around very confidently on my bigger bike!!

The Wiggles come to town

2009-04-13T20:02:00.002+12:00

I went to see the Wiggles with my mum. I put my favourte Dorothy Dinosaur tail on and off I went..... they sung some songs that I knew and loved doing the actions.

Happy Last Day

2009-04-13T19:56:00.002+12:00

I watched a building get built just down the road from me.... and then I found out that it was a daycare so I asked mummy if I could go to that daycare. We had a look and thought it looked pretty fantastic.

So, here are some photos of my last day at my old daycare. We had some cake and some icecream (which we had made!!). It was yum yum yummy!

Dancing kids

2009-04-13T18:44:00.001+12:00

At my old school we played stiff candles.... Kelly played music (usually really cool music that I loved to dance to) and when she stopped playing we had to stand very, very still!

Hangin wif my mates

2009-03-13T11:46:00.002+13:00

Maff and Lulu came over to play. They stayed for dinner, then we had a bath and relaxed in front of the tv. Can you see Maff and I being zebras?? Maff and Lulu have a brand new little sister who I can't wait to meet!

Lots of laughs!!

2009-03-13T11:41:00.001+13:00

At our birthday dinner for Ross we had our fair share of family fun!!

Ross had a birthday

2009-03-13T11:32:00.002+13:00

Olivia and Mum almost set off the smoke alarm when they lit 39 candles!!!

Just one of my girlfriends....

2009-03-13T11:24:00.002+13:00

I am teaching Maddison how to play my favourite song.

Best foot forward

2009-03-13T11:20:00.002+13:00

Well, what can I say. I love goofing around with my brother and sister!! haha

Little Fisherman

2009-03-12T12:36:00.004+13:00

I went fishing off the Motueka Wharf where my mummy used to fish (when she was little and went fishing with Aunty Rachel, Uncle Hamish, Grandma and Grandpa). I was the first one to catch a fish all by myself. I told mummy that the rod was bending but she didn't believe me....at first!

2009-03-12T12:31:00.001+13:00

We visited the Nelson Museum and had a great time learning more about the human body.... one of the games even made a fart noise!! hehehe

Book Worm

2009-03-12T12:23:00.002+13:00

For Christmas I received a book just for FOUR year olds.... I read it all the time.

2009-02-12T14:40:00.003+13:00

It is not all fun and games camping you know, we had to do the dishes!!!!

Growing Boy

2009-02-12T14:39:00.001+13:00

Grunty took this picture to show how much I have grown since last year..... but I think it was to show everyone what I do when I help with the baking!! yummy chocolate!

2009-02-12T14:37:00.000+13:00

Everyone had a turn at using the hammock when they visited Gruncle and Grunty at their site.

Full of wind

2009-02-12T14:36:00.001+13:00

If I want to use it..... then I had to blow it up all by myself!! Bit too tired to use it now!!

Zebra....

2009-02-12T14:35:00.000+13:00

Nature Watch

2009-02-12T14:32:00.001+13:00

We have been growing swan plants for the caterpillars. All of us have had a great time watching them split into a cacoon, then a few weeks later a beautiful butterfly comes out!!

Santa arrived in a boat?

2009-02-12T14:28:00.002+13:00

I went down to the beach before Christmas to see if Santa really did arrive in a boat. Well he did..... but it didn't interest me much. I preferred to play in the water - and have a whale of a time, hehe.

Mini Crims

2008-11-06T19:19:00.002+13:00

The Police Station had an open day where the public could have a look around. I know that I will never be bad as I don't want to get locked up like a crim!!

I was able to sit on the police motorbikes and we all had a turn sitting inside the cells and the Police van that takes the prisoners to Court..... glad they cleaned them out for us!

Goofing Around

2008-11-06T19:17:00.001+13:00

Now and then I love to put my Dorothy Dinosaur tail on - and when I do, it stays on all day!!

Birthdays last more than one day?

2008-11-06T19:16:00.001+13:00

I had a great surprise when we all went over to Rhonda and Phil's for dinner - and Josh and Rhonda had made me a birthday cake!! YUM!! Thanks guys!

Nan Nan and me on my birthday.

2008-10-25T19:50:00.002+13:00

2008-10-25T19:35:00.003+13:00

Out for a special birthday lunch with Grunty Julia, Nan Nan and Mummy.

One of my many presents was this great bubble machine.

Mummy iced this cake - again in my favourite colour.

Grandma came to visit me for breakfast.... no, I didn't eat cake for breakfast!! We had that after Olivia and James came home from school.

Little Roo

2008-09-26T12:49:00.001+12:00

An apple for the teacher

2008-09-26T12:47:00.003+12:00

I made some chocolate chip cookies for my teacher at skool the other morning. My "new" photo pose is to say "cheeeeeeeeeeeeese" for a very long time. Mummy said it makes me look I am frowning! Anyway, the cookies were d e l i c i o u s!

Ice cream!

2008-09-26T12:44:00.001+12:00

2008-09-20T20:36:00.002+12:00

Maybe I will become a model - and Olivia will become a photographer. Like my shorts? Orange is my favourite colour.

James turned 8 this month so we decided to go out and celebrate. Here I am with Olivia and James having a drink at the pub!!!

Having a few games while waiting for our meal.

I did some colouring and the waitress hung it up on the wall! Wonder if it will sell for much. Mmmm.

Yep, I am proud of James - he is a bigger boy than me and he ROCKS!

Olivia and I had to help James eat his special birthday pudding!

2008-09-20T20:19:00.001+12:00

This is how I watch tv some mornings!

It snowed at home!

2008-06-09T08:49:00.002+12:00

In the weekend it snowed at our place! We had to put lots of clothes on to keep warm. I had my orange gloves and orange scarf on so I was toastie warm. I tried to catch the snowflakes on my tongue!

2008-06-09T08:44:00.001+12:00

When I stay at Grandma and Grandpa's I get to wear my dinosaur pj's. I love them cause they are orange!!!

I have grown a tail!

2008-05-19T16:52:00.001+12:00

I think I have been watching too much of the Wiggles..... because I have grown a Dorothy the Dinosaur tail! It goes just about everywhere with me these days - even to Grunty and Gruncle's where I snuck in a second breakfast! (well, I am a growing boy!)

GO CRUSADERS!!

2008-05-13T20:09:00.001+12:00

Aunty Rachel needed reminding where her roots are..... in Crusaders rugby province! We had fun watching the game with our game faces on! CRUSADERS ROCK!!

Do you think Olivia will make the cheerleading squad this year?? Go Liv!

GO BLUE!!???

2008-05-13T19:58:00.005+12:00

Aunty Rachel tells me to say "GO BLUE" and my Mummy says "Go Buckeyes!!". Are my family trying to brainwash me???

2008-05-13T19:54:00.001+12:00

I showed Aunty Rachel how to play snakes and ladders.......and I whipped her butt!! hehehehe. Never underestimate the skills of a three year old!

2008-05-13T19:52:00.000+12:00

Olivia and James helped me show Aunty Rachel my skool book.

Aunty Rachel comes to visit!!!

2008-05-13T19:48:00.002+12:00

Finally I got to meet my Aunty Rachel for the first time!! YIPEE!!! She does talk a little bit funny but once I got to know her, I realised that she is a pretty cool Aunty. I was soooooooo spoilt with all the gifts that her and Uncle Travis gave me (go blue!)

I take Mummy Ice skating!

2008-04-22T08:31:00.002+12:00

When Olivia had her ice skating party I told mummy that she had to come skating with me. We had lots of fun. When I got tired I watched the others go around and around the rink. They were fast!

Olivia's Party

2008-04-22T08:27:00.002+12:00

Olivia is turning 10 this week so she had an ice skating party that I was allowed to go to!! Yey! She has lots of cool friends.

My very very very good friend is Hayleigh. I don't go to the same school as her anymore, however on my last day we had some fun and played with the camera. We love to laugh together and hug each other. I hope Nikki and Cheryl are looking after my girl Hayleigh!

Sad sad day

2008-04-17T19:28:00.003+12:00

I had to say goodbye to my old daycare. I am a big boy now and in the preschool class at a new school closer to my home. On my last day at my old daycare I brought along some orange cupcakes......cause orange is my favourite colour! Nikki and Cheryl don't like getting their photo

taken much - a bit like me.... but here we all are on my last day.

Little Leopard!

2008-04-17T19:27:00.001+12:00

Tiger Woods watch out!

2008-04-17T19:23:00.001+12:00

Hanging About

2008-04-17T19:19:00.001+12:00

Olivia, James and I made up this mat - it has number and letters and pictures on it. I am very good at counting now and am learning all the alphabet numbers very well!

I think we like playing up for the camera! hehe

Shining Slippers

2008-04-17T19:18:00.001+12:00

I got some new slippers for winter as my old ones are too small for me. These new slippers light up when I walk. Here I am jumping about trying to show you them lighting up!

Maff's Birthday

2008-04-17T19:14:00.002+12:00

My friend Maff turned THREE!! YEY! I had a great time at his party. I played on his digger in the sandpit, joined in the lolly scramble and pass the parcel. Olivia and Maff had fun dressing up in loo paper as a mummy!! hehe.

A day in photos...

2008-03-16T18:47:00.000+13:00

Sometimes the meals take a while to get cooked.....

2008-03-16T18:44:00.000+13:00

Where is my dinner?

2008-03-16T18:43:00.000+13:00

2008-03-16T18:39:00.001+13:00

2008-03-16T18:35:00.001+13:00

I had lots of fun on holiday at the beach, and hanging out with Olivia and James.

Camping with Grunty and Gruncle

2008-03-16T18:27:00.002+13:00

Even 3 year olds have chores. Suppose I have to earn my keep somehow!

Big journey out to sea

2008-03-16T18:24:00.001+13:00

Can you see me? I am taking myself for a row - lucky I can swim.

(just kidding - for those of you with your hand on the phone about to call CYPS.... my mummy is hiding behind the boat in the water. hehehe)

2008-03-16T18:23:00.000+13:00

I am such a gentleman.... here I am rowing Mummy and Olivia about!
