The Wee-Woo's

Last month Mummy and Daddy and Kathleen and I went to see the Wee-Woo's (Wiggles). It was so cool. I had so much fun dancing to all the music and climbing up and down from the chairs and dancing in the aisles.

We had a long drive to get there though. The concert was on during my nap time but I wasn't sleepy at all. It was neat to be able to stay up late. Afterwards Mummy took me to an art gallery so I got lots of sleep there. LOL!

We all dressed up for it - I was Purple Wiggle, Kathleen was Yellow Wiggle, Mummy was Red Wiggle and Daddy was Blue Wiggle.

I love dancing to the Wee-Woo's music. I love all music. I love it when Mummy turns the radio up in the car and I can dance along. I like going to creche and singing and dancing there. I know the moves for Roly Poly Pumpkin, and Incy Wincy Spider, and Rock a Bye Your Bear (among others). I love hanging out with the older children and copying what they do.

Naak Naak

Well, finally, I am making myself heard around here. I don't know what's taken them so long, but Mummy and Daddy are finally starting to understand the things I'm saying.

My big sister Kathleen likes to tell Knock Knock jokes. Here's my take on it:

Me: Naak Naak
Mummy: Who's There?
Me: Naak Naak
Mummy: Who's There?
Me: Naak Naak
Mummy: Who's There?

You get the idea? Sometimes I vary it a little:

Me: Naak Naak
Mummy: Who's There?
Me: Mum-mee
Mummy: Mummy Who?
Me: Naak Naak

Ha ha !!!

My absolute favourite game to play is "Catch the Bee". Mummy says they are called flies but I like to call them bees because it's easier. The way to play the game is this:

  • Find a dead fly on the floor
  • Pick it up (squishing it is optional)
  • Call out to Mummy "A Beeeeeeeeeee"
  • Give the bee to Mummy
  • If she doesn't respond then eat the bee

Ha ha !!!

We have a new dog. He is the same size as me. I call him Da-Du. At first I called him Doe-Du but now I like Da-Du better.

We have two cats too. I call them both Bubbie.

I can say lots of other things too. My favourite word is "LAAK" (look). It is such a handy word. If I say it then people look at what I'm pointing at and can see what I'm trying to tell them.

Learning new words is so much fun.

Luv,
Victoria

PS: Mummy wanted me to say that she does keep our house clean and it is not full of dead flies. But they keep coming inside to die, and even if she's just vacuumed in the morning there'll be heaps more for me to find by the afternoon.

Here I come

Hey everyone, look what I can do...



It's taken me lots of practice but I've finally gotten my balance sorted out. I can walk from one end of the room to the other. I still prefer to walk along holding on to things. I especially love pushing either the Dora ride-on car or the plastic chair I got for my birthday. Walking is much better than crawling, but if I have to get somewhere in a hurry then crawling is still the way to go.

It won't be long now before I can keep up with my sister...



Luv,
Victoria

Happy New Year

Hi guys!!!!! Hey, it's taken me a long time to get back to my blog. Mummy doesn't let me near the computer very often. But here I am and I promise I'm going to blog more often in future.

Well heaps has changed since the last time I blogged. And just as I predicted in my last entry, no longer do I just get dragged around with Mummy and Kathleen ... I am now mobile and they have to follow me around too!!! Although actually what happens is that they go out of the room without me and I have to follow them :-( I don't like it when Mummy leaves the room.

I have been crawling for about 5 months now. It took me a little while to build up the confidence to try it, but once I did there has been no stopping me. I'm also really good at walking along behind the ride-on Dora car. Or behind anything that moves really, like laundry baskets, trolleys or dolls strollers. And I love walking along holding Mummy's hand. I'm still not so sure about walking on my own though. I can do a couple of steps at a time but then I get all wobbly and chicken out. It's a little scary.

I have heaps of teeth now. I have all my front teeth and four molars. The molars really hurt coming through and I was a bit miserable for a while. About a month before that I had the chicken pox which was also really yucky.

These are my favourite things:

  • My sister Kathleen. I love to play with her. I love to kiss her and her to kiss me. It always makes me giggle. I watch her play and then I want to play with the same things, but she doesn't always like that.
  • My Daddy. He tickles me and makes me laugh.
  • My Mummy. She is always there for me and gives me lots of cuddles. I love cuddles.

I'm trying really hard to talk to my family, but they don't always understand me. I can say Mamma and Dada. I can say duh (duck) and ba-baa (bye bye). I know lots of other words like cat and ball and bird and bath but can't quite make the right sounds for everybody to understand. It is so frustrating.

Well I'd better go now as it's getting late. Talk to you all again next month.

Luv,
Victoria
