The big orange donut

This weekend I tried out the new donut that Mum got me for the pool - it let's me swim around by myself and keep my relaxed pose without looking flustered or nervous in any way. You know a girl needs to keep that air of grace about her in all circumstances.

If I kick with just one leg, I can spin around in circles and create a very small whirlpool.

Well today I'm 5 months old - its been a blast so far although its all happened so fast.

I can now sit up in my new green chair and help Mum in the kitchen. Poppie and Uncle Nick think I might be getting my first tooth.

I am quite stretchy - I can put my foot in my mouth and suck my toes. I'm still trying to perfect the roll - I'm close and will have it nailed before my 6 month birthday. Keep you posted...

My friend Chloe Talbot has given me this cool green lazy-girl chair made of comfy, soft rubber.

Its perfect for kicking back and watching the rugby with Dad.

My Poppie Warren and Grandma Penny just got back from travelling around India for a month.

On one of his twice-hourly shopping excursions, Poppie found this cool umbrealla which has printed on it "Poppie loves you" - isn't that great.

I don't go out into the sun without it - I look like a miniature Mary Poppins.

Uncle Nick still comes down from KL to visit me most weekends and teaches me all about being a chiropractor - I got my first baby back massage the other day - what can I say, he has wonderful hands

Cold for the first time

Yes, I'm nearly 5 months old and I've never felt cold before, that was until I visited Grandma's where they're getting ready for Winter - wow what a difference that was.

As you know, I usually like to laze around in something casual like a nappy and singlet so this was a new experience for me - at least I got to make a fashion statement with my pink fur jacket and green pants.

My first wedding

While I was in Australia, Mum and Dad took me as guest of honour to their friend Jane's wedding.

I think poor Jane was quite jealous of all of the attention I was getting in my little pink wedding outfit.

It was lots of fun!

A visit to meet my cousins

Sorry I haven't updated my blog for the last 2 weeks, I've just got back from a big trip to Australia where I went to visit my cousins and Grandma Patti. I've made a little slideshow so you can see some pictures of me with them.
