shopping

The other morning I woke up with someone in my bed. The person was wearing an eye mask so I thought it must be Mummy. It wasn't, it was Rosie! She came back to my house and snuggled up next to me. I was so happy to see her. I told her that I always had milk and make-up in the morning but that isn't entirely true, I actually only have milk unless I can sneak a bit of lip stick on when no one is looking. Sadly she didn't really believe me but I did get some milk so that was good. Mummy took us into town today. She doesn't do this very often. Apparently it's quite stressful. When we were shopping I managed to try on 6 pairs of shoes, 4 bangles and balance a pair of ear-rings on my ears. My little sister managed to drop 2 pieces of salami, 4 slices of cucumber and her pitta sandwich 4 times on the floor. She also managed to scream with boredom more times than I did all last week. I quite enjoyed shopping and I think Mummy did too. I will try and encourage Mummy to take us into H&M Kids next time. I'm sure I to find a pair of heels that fit me there.

red faced

I have been very tired today (really yesterday) and a little tetchy. My little sister wakes very early then she throws something out of her cot then realises that she wants it back. Pointless. My little sister will then have two more naps in the day to recover from her early morning starts but I won't. I am 3 and a quarter and far too old to nap. Now-a-days I only nap in the car and I can fall asleep within a minute of the car moving. I expect Mummy loves that. We didn't go out in the car today which is why I had some rather uncontrollable tired-person-rants. Lovely Rosie came over today. She's gorgeous. Her Mummy is poorly in hospital so we made her a picture to make her smile. The picture is huge, the size of me, in fact, it is me. Rosie drew around me then we coloured me in only I got distracted with some face paints and coloured my whole face red. Daddy said I looked embarrassed and asked me what I was blushing about. I didn't know what he meant. I did get very upset when Mummy decided that the red on my face should we washed off. I had only just put it on. Why should I take it off? So I cried and stropped and hit out a little then gave in. Then I was a little embarrassed that Rosie saw me that way...

pink lipstick

My cousin Tara looked so beautiful today. I want to look like her when I am 7. She had on leggings with lace, a stripy jersey dress, ballet pumps and was carrying a metallic pink handbag. Not only that, but she was wearing our great grandmas lipstick which is the colour of my pink necklace which must be about 20 years old. That's amazing isn't it? I saw the sea again today but I didn't touch it. It was miles away behind fields with cows eating grass and huge puddles. We picked and ate raspberries at a PYO farm then flew a kite. I held the kite strings whilst holding onto Tara's pink bag which Daddy thought was very clever but a little irritating I think. My little sisters chicken pox have fallen off her face but we don't know where they have gone. I wonder that if we found them and put them under her cot mattress, she would get money from the pox fairies. I will hunt for some later.

sipping cocktails

I missed going to nursery this week, it can be so boring at home with Mummy and and my little sister. We did go to Toys-r-us on Thursday which I thought was amazing but Mummy didn't. She said it was a hideous store. I want to go on holiday in Toys-r-us, they have sweets and pop to drink so I wouldn't starve. We had a lovely trip out in Grandpa's new car yesterday. It's the size and colour of a baby elephant and is really clean not like Mummy's crumby car. Granny came too which means lots and lots of cuddles which I like very much. We went to see the sea and ate ice-creams. I love the sea as much as Granny and want to go again and again. Me and my little sister were little angels and it was very nice to get away from moody Mummy. Sometimes I can't help being grumpy with Mummy too. It just happens. It did when we got home and ate dinner. It's usually dinner that causes problems. Perhaps I should try and sit still and eat rather than be fidget-knickers but I find it really difficult. When Daddy got home I helped him cut the grass. I felt so grown up last when we finished as we sat in the sun drinking cocktails and eating spicy Bombay Mix (which was horrid). I had apple juice with a sprig of lavender. Mummy and Daddy had Pimms. I went straight to sleep after my story and didn't mess about for the first time in ages but that was because my little sister was already fast asleep so we couldn't play 'scream till they snap'. I love that game.

handage

Lots happened yesterday. I now sleep in the big room with my little sister. Mummy now has my room as an office. And Daddy now has lots of space in the basement because Mummy's stuff has gone into my old room, now her office. Yesterday we saw lovely Rosie, Chris, Jim, Julie, Sam, Mia and Stanley the dog which was really really nice. Rosie gave me lots of cuddles which I love very much and some pressies which I love very much too. Jim had a bandage on his hand because he had just had an operation. His hand looked very silly as it was really, really big and rather badly wrapped. Julie said he did it himself which would make sense. We had a delicious BBQ and I ate lots. My little sister didn't, which is unusual. She looked really poorly, with big spots and sad eyes. When we got home, my little sister and I shared the big room for the first time. It was fun only I fell asleep before I could be a nuisance to Mummy and Daddy. I made up for it tonight. Me and my little sister messed around and screamed non stop for about an hour. Daddy was getting fed up which just made it even more fun. I heard Mummy say "do you think boys scream?" It made me think... I bet they do but they don't admit it. I've been quite bored but I have also been quite a little bit moody. I heard rumours that we might go camping today which would have been brilliant but Daddy said it would rain. It didn't. He just wanted to watch the Grand Prix and the Golf. B-o-r-i-n-g.

wet weather dens

Yesterday was very wet - again. We went over to our lovely Granny and Grandpa's house to eat sausages and have cuddles. It rained all the time we were there and the rain kept making the telly funny and not work properly which was very annoying. Granny wanted to watch the golf and I wanted to watch a film. Mummy suggested that I watched a film on Granny's laptop. Clever Mummy. Which meant Granny could try and watch the boring golf only couldn't because of the bad T.V. Grandpa was trying to sleep, Mummy was trying to work and my little sister slept peacefully upstairs. Granny made a den for me with an itchy blanket and her legs as a roof. I love making dens and having food and drink, crayons and paper in them. I don't think I have ever watched a film on a laptop before but I will try and do that again, it was brilliant. Today Mummy and Daddy have said I can sleep in the big bed in my little sisters bedroom. I think they are doing something with my room. I think Mummy wants a work space to make stuff. My little sisters room is the best in the house. It's big and light and airy and will be a fun room to play in. I'm very excited to be in that room with my little sister. I can't wait till bedtime (for once).

raspberry picking

My little sister now has chicken pox only she doesn't seem to be too bothered by them. At the moment, she is emptying my pen and crayon box and sucking on felt tips and glue. She knows she shouldn't do this because every time Mummy turns around to look at her, she stops and smiles sweetly back. Yesterday we went in the car to visit my Great Nana and my Auntie and Cousin. Mummy let me sit in the middle seat in the front of our car which is brilliant as I can kick the radio on and off. I love seeing my cousin Lucy. Auntie Amy was making meringues and she let me help her and then lick the bowl. Daddy's just told Mummy off for letting my little sister eating the contents of my pen box. Naughty Mummy. Yesterday, on the way home, we picked up Mummy's friend Jody who is very sad at the moment. We then went to gather raspberries. We ate lots and Mummy picked lots. I think she's going to make raspberry vodka. What's that? I forgot to wash the shampoo out of my hair last night so I'm going to have another shower. It's a cunning trick. I love showers but not rain showers. They are boring now.
