Changing a lightbulb - Vietnam style...
Marmite face...
Enjoying walking behind my wheelie box!...
Reading stories in my new room...
Playing with my new block set...Hi,
Sorry that it's been awhile since my last post but I have been very busy lately shifting apartments. I have my own room which is in the middle between mummy and daddy's room and the study. All three lead straight to the lounge and dining area which is great as it means these areas are an extension of my room when I play. I also have more furniture of my own than in our last apartment. The best things are my shelves which means that my library is within easy reach when I want to chill out with a book. We are on the 17th floor so we have a good view out. Luckily there are these moving boxes outside the apartment which lift you up from ground level because I think 17 flights of stairs would be hard work for mummy when we are going out and daddy is at work.
As part of the shift mummy dug out daddys block set for me so we now have a new game - daddy builds a tower (just like work) and I knock it down. I do wonder who knocks down daddy's buildings at work - if they just get left, surely he will run out of building blocks soon... maybe I should volunteer...
Yesterday I had visitors as Georgia and Mackenzie came to visit with their mummy. It was fun to have friends over to play with - hopefully now that we have friends close by this will become a regular event!
Being a proud and patriotic kiwi I have started eating marmite. I don't understand it but mummy winces every time she spreads it for me and won't touch it, whereas I have to keep my eye on daddy to ensure he doesn't 'share' too much... I think its yummy, and mummy tells me its very good for me! What a bonus! I am also doing well with my weetbix - now up to two weetbix and a banana for breakfast. Apparently this is the same as some adults, but what can I say, us busy boys have to keep our strength up.
I am getting very good at standing up and sitting down, though i still like to be holding on to something for support as my legs are a bit wobbly. I've noticed that some things move when I stand up and lean against them so I have to move my feet to keep up. It's quite good, as in this way, I can get from one place to another without mummy's and daddy's help.
By the way, I was wondering how many of you know how many Vietnamese people it takes to replace a lightbulb? I have recently discovered that it takes 3 - one to screw in the lightbulb, one to supervise & another to hold the chair balanced preciously on two legs on the other chair so the person changing the lightbulb doesn't fall off! Daddy would like to apologise for the slightly funny lighting in the photograph but he couldn't use the camera flash in case it startled them!

Now, I've just realised the time so I'm going to go and have my bath. Until next time...
