Whilst Daddy's away, Mummy and I play

Daddy's still in America. He's at the race right now. Mummy's got it on the telly and she's looking at the live timing on the internet so that she knows what's going on... nosy is my Mummy. Daddy's car's running 2nd in it's class, so let's hope there's a trophy in it at the end of the race and so that Daddy gets more people to want one of his cars so that he earns lots of money so that Mummy can buy handbags and shoes (Mummy told me to write that bit).

As was planned, this week has been another busy one. I think I told you what I was up to on Tuesday, hips and things... On Wednesday I did get weighed and I'm a whole 9lbs 13.5ozs, hopefully by Monday I'll have tipped the scales at 10lbs... we'll see!

Thursday was a lovely day. Mummy took me to meet up with buddy Gene and girlie Harriet. we had a great time. Gene's doing so well, he told me that he loves being at home with his Mummy, Daddy, fishy and henny. He's a lot happier and chuckles away to himself. He's still a diddy 5.5lbs, but boy oh boy does he polish off his milk quickly, he'll be a right chubber along with Harriet and I soon enough. Harriet was looking pretty in pink, she suits that colour - just as well really, she's got lots of it. She was nuzzling in to her Mummy's boobie for a good time, she'll be heavier than me the next time she's weighed.

Friday didn't turn out as it should have. Mummy was supposed to take me to a 'weaning session' where she was going to learn all about feeding me proper food. She fell asleep after feeding me my 7am breakfast and she woke up with only 1/2 hour to get ready to go out... not enough time to get me ready let alone her... Anyhow, she says that it's no real problem as she's not entirely sure when she's supposed to do it... 6 months from time of birth or 6 months from corrected age... she's sure that she's heard both... she'll check on Monday when she sees the health visitor... she'll know. I want to have baby rice, mashed up bananas, avocado, butternut squash and sweet potatoes... I've been told that they're all sooooo nice and Mummy can't wait to start cooking for me...

Instead I went for a little drink at my friend Ellie's. Mummy and her Mummy (Nicky) get on just mighty fine and I sat with them in the garden. Ellie's got teeth coming, she's got rosy cheeks!

More milk for now though. I've been a very hungry boy today. I've been to my Gt Aunty Janices today. I've seen Gt Unc Robin, Terry and Brian and Gt A's Janice, Andy, Vally and Chris... also Cousin Kirsty - there's been rellies all around me - poking, prodding but mostly cuddling, feeding, kissing, touching and cooing over me. What a life. Gt Aunty did lots of yummy food for them to eat, there were little fairy cakes with lemon icing and butterfly cakes and chocolate brownies; more healthy things like salad and salmon sandwiches, ooh and some cheese mmmmmmmmmmmmm. I'm looking forward to getting chocolate and icing all round my mouth - I think I'll find that quite easy.

Come on Daddy, win, win, win!
