Day Two Hundred and Nineteen

 Sunday 31st March 2013 ~ Today was my first Easter Sunday. I spent the day at Grandma and Grandad's with Mummy, Daddy, Uncle Ed and Aunt Amy.

As far as I can tell, Easter is a lot about eggs and chocolate but I'm not sure why. Daddy wouldn't tell me the story of Easter either but promised to as soon as I'm old enough. 

For breakfast I had a boiled egg with a picture of a baby chick on that Mummy drew

 

Daddy bashed the egg with a spoon and then fed me bits of bread they called soldiers with egg on them. It was delicious.

 

Today Mummy and Daddy gave me my first ever Easter egg. I had fun playing with it and then I tried to eat it with the shiny paper on.

Daddy took the wrapper off and gave me a little bit. I loved it and tried to figure out a way of eating all of it but I wasn't allowed

So I had some yoghurt instead and everyone laughed at my yoghurt beard

Things got much better after that. Cousin Isabelle sent me a fairy wand to play with. At first I thought it was for eating...

 ...but Daddy said it was for waving around like a fairy

 I had a great time playing with my Aunt Amy and Uncle Ed

 There were lots of bubbles...

 Bubbles bubbles everywhere!

I love Easter

Day Two Hundred and Eighteen

Saturday 30th March 2013 ~ Today I had a lot of fun with Grandma and Grandad

I even had fun in Waitrose



Day Two Hundred and Seventeen

Friday 29th March 2013 ~ Mummy says today is Good Friday. She says she'll explain what that means when I'm older because it's a very long story not suitable for babies.

This morning Grandma and Grandad took me for a walk and then let me sleep in their lovely garden. I was a bit confused when I woke up.

 This afternoon Grandad made Hot Cross Buns and I tried some for the first time. They were delicious.

Grandma and Mummy made cornflake cakes, which looked like little nests with eggs in them but I wasn't allowed any. Mummy says I can have some when I'm older.

My Great Nan bought me a gingerbread chick lolly. It was too hard for me to eat but I had a good go anyway.. and Mummy let me eat a bit of chocolate, which was totally delicious and made me very smiley.

It has been a good Friday.

Day Two Hundred and Sixteen

 Thursday 28th March 2013 ~ Today Mummy and I went back to Southend to stay with Grandma and Grandad. It was a bit confusing because today isn't Tuesday but Mummy said it was an impromptu visit. I don't know what that means but it sounds exciting.

We had lots of fun. Grandad even read me a bedtime story.

But I missed my Daddy.

Day Two Hundred and Thirteen

Monday 25th March 2013 ~ Today I woke up early and felt completely unsettled. I wasn't sure what was wrong, but I really didn't feel like eating breakfast.

Mummy took me to Sing and Sign, but even though the teacher said I was doing really well, I couldn't really concentrate. Afterwards, I met up with my friend Marianne and we had a good old chat about things. We agreed that some days it's just a hard life being a baby...

Day Two Hundred and Twelve

Sunday 24th March 2013 ~ Today, Mummy and Daddy took me to the Light Show at the Hayward Gallery - it left me completely starry-eyed!

There was a room filled with lots of different coloured lights (Mummy thinks I look best in red)

A room with flashing water, a funny mirror with words on it, a staircase made of lights and a really dark room that I had a great time singing in.

When I was tired from singing, we went out for dinner. Mummy and Daddy didn't seem to like the food much, but who cares about silly food, I got a lovely ballon. What a great day!

Day Two Hundred and Eleven

Saturday 23rd March 2013 ~ Today I went swimming with Daddy. I'm really enjoying it...

This afternoon Aunt Veronica and Uncle Rob came round

We had fun playing and they made me laugh.
