A busy couple of days

On Sunday mummy and daddy took me out for the day to the Berwick and Gembrook markets for a walk because it was such a nice day. I got a bit grizzly at the Gembrook market and mummy had to carry me at the end, but it was worth going because I got to see Puffing Billy come into the station. I had a wonderful time smiling at it, I can't wait to go on it and hang my legs out the window when I'm old enough!

Yesterday while daddy was at work mummy and I went with Nanna and Grandad Rastall to visit their very dear friend Peg. She made some lovely scones that they all had them with jam and cream. Mummy felt very spoiled. I didn't behave myself at all, I cried so much. Mummy's tummy isn't feeling so good and thinks that maybe I am feeling the same as I've been really unhappy for the last few days. While we were at Peg's house, some other friends, Sue and Peter came over and I got to have big cuddles with Sue. Mummy thinks that Sue should come and stay at our house since as soon as she held me I stopped crying. They gave me a really cute pair of sheepskin booties that I am looking forward to wearing when I get a bit better - thank you Sue and Peter!

I love my new friend Peg - mummy and I read the 'Winnie The Pooh' books that she gave me every afternoon after my sleep

After we left Peg's house we dropped mummy off at home and I spent the afternoon with Nanna and Grandad so mummy could have some time to study. Nanna told mummy that I mostly behaved myself, but looking at the photos it looks like maybe grandad might have spent a bit of time trying to get me to calm down and sleep. I enjoyed my afternoon with them and I look forward to the day when I am allowed to sleep over for a full night - Nanna says I can when I'm old enough, but I don't know when that is.

Today mummy and I have not been feeling the best again. Nanna Rastall came over this morning to play and I gave her big smiles until I had enough of playing and she gave me my bottle. She comes to visit every time she comes down to Pakenham so I get to see her most days - I really do look forward to seeing her, I love spending time with her. Today I have spent most of my awake time crying other than when Nanna was here and I haven't been happy at all. Mummy's still trying to study and though today I will have slept for 17.5hrs, most of that during the day has been in mummy's arms because I've been so unsettled so she can't do anything. I'm still sleeping through the nights for at least 12hrs, so mummy can cope with me during the day, she just wants me to be a bit happier.

Here's a picture of me before I went to Ryan's 3rd birthday party on Saturday with Grandad - he was in charge of calming me down again. Do you like me 'Miami Vice' style party outfit? My pants match daddy's and I feel like a mini-me!
