Hi guys, Mum and I were mucking about with the camera and my toys the other day, check it out:
It was good fun! I know that Mum did similar pics with Finny when he was my age. She’s put a couple up on the picture albums for you to compare! Yes, I do look like my brother don’t I? ‘Cept don’t tell him I said so but his ears stick out more in his toy pics than mine do . . . ;o) (There are loads more pics on the link at the end of this entry.)
Life is going well. I had my 5 month Plunket check the other day, and I’m now 6.8kg (that’s about 15lbs), which is just under double my birthweight! I like being little, it just involves, eating, sleeping and playing.
Talking of eating, I discovered beetroot the other day. YUM! So far I’ve had: chic
ken and pepper (capsicum as the Kiwis call it), avocado (love that), broccoli, squash (not the Robinson’s sort, don’t worry!) and beetroot. All very nice, but I think beetroot is the prettiest, don’t you? It’s very funky to eat too, as it’s sort of sweet and mushy and weirdly-textured. Fin likes to help Mum feed me; thankfully Mum is teaching Fin to do it gently and not ram the spoon down the back of my throat. Sigh.
I started back at swimming a couple of weeks ago, and that’s going well too. Still liking going underwater! And because this seems to be a picture sort of blog entry, here’s one specially for Granny N, who wanted to see me in my swim togs:
I’m still the youngest in the class, which is kind of kudos, I suppose. Fin started swimming at the same age as me (3 months), so I’ve still got to beat my brother at being the youngest to do something. Perhaps I could work on being the youngest to start the cryptic crossword or something intellectual like that . . .
Lots more pics here:
