I'm 3!

On November 3rd, I celebrated my 3rd Birthday. It was soooo much fun opening all my presents. I got Tommy toys, clothes, and colouring set from Mum and Dad. Porpor and Papa brought me my own 'Handy Mandy' tool box, so I can fix things. We went to Mcdonalds to have lunch.

A few days later I had my party at Porpor & and Papas house. The night before my party I had an accident with my bike and the lawnmower and nearly broke my foot, so I couldnt walk for my party. But it was okay I still had a fantastic time with all my friends and family who spoilt me with lots of cool presents. We played games and ate yummy party food.

Aunty Maxine made my awesome Thomas train cake, it was chocolate my favourite.

Labour Weekend in Whitianga

This year for Labour Weekend Mum, Porpor, Ari and I went to Whititanga. Dad and Papa had to work. We stayed at Sharons house and had a great time. I went for lots of bike rides, played at the cool park and Ari went to the beach for her first time. She really like eating the sand, but I preferred eating ice creams. I also had heaps of fun playing with my friends Will and Amelia and all their cute baby rabbits.

One night we had my favourite 'fish n chips' for tea at the park, and I liked feeding the seagulls all of our leftovers.

Play Time

Ari likes to bounce in her jumping jolly and move around in her walkie. I like to play with my 'tommy' trains and make new tracks for them on the train table. Sometimes I also like to paint pictures and draw, I have just learnt my ABCs so I like to practice writing them.

When we go to Porpor and Papa's house we play outside lots and we both like bouncing on the tramp.

Australia - Gold Coast

For my mums 30th Birthday, dad treated us to a trip to the Gold Coast. We stayed with Aunty Kaye, Uncle Gene and Jayde. It was sooo hot and we had soooo much fun. I really liked the plane ride and watching all the movies and Ari was a good baby and didnt cry.

We went to Dreamworld, where we saw lots of animals, met the Wiggles and Dora and me and dad went on lots of cool rides. We also went swimming at Whitewater world. I loved swimming in the big wiggles pool and sliding down all the slides. Ari didnt like the water much, so she just watched me and put her toes in.

The day we went to the beach, their was a big sandstorm so we couldnt stay for long, so we had to go shopping instead. The photo of me and Ari on the floor, was taken of us playing on the ground at the airport before we flew home, mum was trying to make us tired. We had such a cool holiday, we all cant wait to go back again one day.

Kai Kai Time

I now eat lots and lots of food. I started at five months eating farex, veges and fruit. My favourite was pumpkin and apple. Now I'm nine months old and even though I dont have any teeth I still love eating! I'm not a big fan of baby food and like eating what everyone else is having. My favs at the moment are avocado cruskits, bones and weetbix. Mum tells me Im a good eater and I even eat more than my big brother, who is very fussy.

I hope I get teeth soon.

Adios Uncle Tim

In August, we went and farewelled Uncle Tim. He is going on a big plane ride to America to live and study for six months. Everyone says that I look like him, but I think I'm 'cuter.' I like going to the airport, because I get to have my favourite, hot chippies and nuggets from mcdonalds. I cant wait until he comes back in January, hopefully with lots of presents for me and Ari.

Kelly Tarltons

We had a family day out at Kelly Tarltons and had lots of fun. I really liked the penguin ride and looking at the big stingrays. Ari slept for most of the visit. I also saw 'Nimo' which is my favourite movie to watch at the moment.

After Kelly Tarltons I went for a big bike ride around the waterfront and then played at the park.

New Toys!

This is my cool new blue bike with a trailer that I can carry my trains in. I can ride really fast and like going around the block. Mum and dad have to run fast to keep up with me.

Ari also got a new toy an exersaucer. She can stand up in it and spins around to play and eat all the toys.

Play Time

Ari and I have been sick with colds so we have had to stay indoors. To keep me entertained mum lets me tip all my toys everywhere - its lots of fun. Sometimes I let Ari play with me, although she just likes to roll on the ground and do tummy time. I cant wait until its warmer and we can play outside more.

Patano 1st Birthday

This is my cousin Patano and last month it was his first birthday. Me and Ari got dressed up in our party clothes and had so much fun. I liked playing on the bouncy castle with my cousins and eating all the yummy food. Patano is clever and was walking around on the day, we liked playing together on the cars and made everyone push us around.

Spikey hairdos

I am now 2 1/2 and my sister is 4 months. Every night after our bath dad likes to give both of us spikey hair. Although Ari's hair is longer than mine and is always spikey. She is growing very quickly and is good at doing tummy time. Me and mum like to call her 'missy moo.'

Splish Splash

Here I am having a bath in the Porpors laundry sink.  I like lining up all my Tommy Trains and giving them a bath too.  I take my Tommy Trains everywhere and like spending all day playing with them.  This is a photo of my sister Ari in her nighty after she has had a bath.  We like having baths together (mum couldnt download the photo hehehehe) she still has lots of 'spikey' hair, its nearly longer than mine.

Moi Moi Time

Im now nine weeks old and my big brother is 2 1/2.  We have been housesitting Porpor & Papas house and here is a photo of me, Tana and Dada sleeping.  Mum is probably busy doing all of our washing and cleaning.  

Now that it is getting colder, I like sleeping on Tanas sheepy because I'm still waiting for my own one.  Sometimes Tana likes to scream and wake me up, but luckily Im a deep sleeper and I usually sleep through all the noise.

My Baby Sister Ariana

Friday February 20th at 4.20pm my baby sister was born at Pukekohe Maternity Hospital.  She weighed 7 pounds and 13oz, one pound more than me.  We spent the day at Porpor & Papas house, I helped by giving mum my iceblocks when she has having pains.  I then stayed with Porpor when Mum and Dad went into hospital and I was her visitor an hour after she was born.  

I called her 'baba' for five days because she didnt have a name.  Then Porpor got to name her Ariana because Mum and Dad couldnt decide.  Her middle name is after my Dads nana Teokotai and she is a Greig like me.  All she does is drink mums milk, cry and get her nappies changed.  I dont mind at the moment as long as I get to play with my Tommy Trains and watch Tommy on TV.

PorPors 50+1 Party

On Valentines day PorPors had her 50+ 1 party at her house.  PorPor, Papa, Mum, Aunty Sahsahs and I dressed up as Bollywood.  I liked my outfit, especially when Aunty Sahsahs put a bindi on my head.  I had so much fun playing with all my cousins, and dancing to Dadas band we got to stay up really late.  Luckily Mum didnt have our baby, because everyone was busy having a good time.  Lots of people stayed the night and the next day was just as fun playing with my friend Wil and cousin Katie.
