Spoilt?

January 25, 2008 by originis

Spoilt; what me? Just ’cause Aunty Katie came over and minded me last weekend…

 This would be good ta eat... eh Aunty Katie?

And then during the week I went ta Grandma’s. We wrote a letter to Auntie Anniee and Uncle Morgwn, I had my say too, and off we went to the mail box to post it. That’s Grandpa’s truck on the left… he pulled up just as we got there. Spoilt; nah not me… I deserve it :-) !  

See Grandpa... we posted it!

Happy New Year!… plus some :-)

January 10, 2008 by originis

Well…  a new year and a new sibling on the way :-) Mum and Dad have told me to expect competition by August!!

Pretty lights in Darwin city

Sorry about the slackness but Grandpa’s been havin’ a major headache with his computer, and couldn’t do my photos for me. The other big news ’round here was Cyclone Helen… not much rain, only Category 2, but plenty of wind… blew my clothes off :-) Ya reckon it’s safe for a bloke ta come out now, Grandpa?

Man it was windy!!

It blew plenty of trees over…

Plenty for the Council ta clean up here!

There was another casualty too, Dad’s special big gum tree that he carefully saved when the back yard was cleared.

Damn... I 'specially kept this tree!

He wasn’t happy :-( but there was nothing for it but ta get the chainsaw out and chop it up.

Another load for the dump!

It was a bit much for his trailer,so he loaded the trunks inta Grandpa’s truck.

This crane sure comes in handy!

Him and Grandpa had a bit of a laugh first, tearing the stump loose… they reckon it was really necessary, but I reckon it was just an excuse for lairising :-)

Mug lairs!!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all my loyal fans :-)

Merry Christmas to all!

Boy… I like Christmas! I got up this morning and there was all kindsa stuff waiting… and we haven’t even got a chimney?! Yia Yia and Pa Pou gave me a cool bike so, when we went to Grandma and Grandpa’s for Christmas lunch, I took it and showed Grandma.

The bike I got from Yia Yia and Pa Pou

Grandma and Grandpa gave me a black wagon that ya walk behind; ya cart dirt an’ everything in it… even rocks ‘n stuff. I can’t show ya yet ’cause Grandpa’s gotta load me with my little excavator! I let Grandma keep the box but :-)

Ya can't see my wagon, but here's the box!

Then we had lunch… yuuum!! ( If ya look real close at my face, you’ll see spots starting; I got another, unexpected, present for Christmas… measles… maybe! )

Roast duck... yuuum!!

Oh…  everyone else had food too, not just me, see…

Lotsa food!

‘Course Grandpa had ta take the photos… and Dad had ta answer all my texts; I was busy :-)

I need a secretary ta handle my texts!

Then it was time for sweets… check out the blue tongue, heh, heh!

Blue tongue Charles!

It’s not what ya think, all right… it’s paper; I love it, ask Mum!

Paper.. it's paper I tell ya!

I looked everywhere for Uncle Morgwn and Auntie Anniee, under the table…

Are Uncle Morgwn and Auntie Anniee under here? 

Out in the street…

They're not out here

But they’re not here :-( Merry Christmas Uncle Morgwn and Auntie Anniee xox

So I gave up, gave Mum a cuddle, and went ta sleep… least Mum wished I would :-) Merry Christmas everyone!!

Nap time

December 18, 2007 by originis

Dad’s reeeal happy now :-) Yesterday he managed to get a loader and clean up all his heaps, and today the grader came, finally, and levelled up all the block so that he can mow easy.

We went from this…

Lotsa grass!

No grass!

Me, I got better ways ta pass the time :-)

Mr Dig

December 9, 2007 by originis

Grandpa’s been doin’ a bit of a project at his house this week… fixing up the pavers in the driveway… so I let him use my little digger :-)

 I lent Grandpa my little digger!

Dad gave him a hand on the stump grinder during the week, and now Grandpa reckoned he was finished today, so I put on my supervisors shirt and went ta check up on him! This is serious business, ya know…

 Serious business this quality control!

He didn’t do a bad job… me an’ Bert gave it the thumbs up :-) ps Grandma and Grandpa live in Sesame Street; bet ya didn’t know that! 

Me 'n Bert

I thought I best check my digger right over; you sure ya not spinnin’ me a line Grandpa? Grandpa pushes things a bit hard sometimes… he thinks he’s on his big digger!

Checkin' up on Grandpa!

This one here feels a bit loose Grandpa!!

Me, Mr Dig!
