Day 21

Nanny and I were going into town today to see what was happening because there is always something interesting to see and do in Fed Square or along the river.... BUT Daddy suggested that we go to the Melbourne Museum instead.  It sounded a bit boring and I wasn't really keen but... I had a terrific day there.

There is an exhibition about Mesopotamia at the Museum and they have made some activity areas for kids.   At this one we could use foam shapes and blocks to build ziggurats which are big temples.  I liked this and Nanny helped me to share and take my turn with the other kids that were playing there.

There was a wall with a picture of an olden day village on it and there were pictures of people too.  You could move the people and put them in different places because there were magnets at the back of the pictures.  I am really good at this because I have lots of magnet letters and pictures on my fridge at home and I practice them every day when Nanny is cooking my dinner.

There was a place to read books and a place to do puzzles and a place to dress up in olden day clothes.  

At the end was a display of animals.  This is a baby giraffe.... Look how tall it is.  There were lots of different animals and you could sit on some of them.

We went outside for a little while and there were all sorts of games that were from the olden days..... Hop scotch and skipping, hoola hoops and stilts.  I wasn't very good at any of them but played with the really big Lego blocks.  
I built a tower bigger than me...
I wish I had some of those blocks.  They were great to use.

Nanny and I had lunch at the Museum and then I went to all the activities again.   After a while we left for home and I fell asleep on the way home.  It was such a busy day.  
I was really tired... I hope we can go there again....

Day 20

Nanny and I went out again today.  We went to ScienceWorks in Williamstown which isn't very far from where we live.  It is a big building which has all kinds of Science things in it.  Things about light and sound, animals, the planets and lots of other things.  I looked at flashing lights and funny mirrors, old fashioned kitchens and television sets but upstairs is this really great place called the Nitty Gritty City.  I liked the cafe where you could play with pretend food.  I found all kinds of fruit and vegetables.   

There was a room that had all kinds of things that made music.  Things that you could tap and things that you could scrape. I had lots of goes on them.  I liked the weather room too.   You could dress pictures of kids in different clothes for different kids of weather.   Nanny helped me with that.  That was fun too.  There were lots of other kids there too.  It was really busy and really noisy.   Nanny and I had lunch outside near the playground and we fed some hungry seagulls.  I had so much fun.  I hope I can go again.  Please Nanny... Please

Day 19

The weather has been rainy again so Nanny and I made some play dough.  Nanny found a recipe for it on her computer and we made it in a bowl.  First Nanny put in some flour which tastes nice.  Then Nanny put in some salt which doesn't taste very nice.  Then she added some water, some oil and some green colouring.  We mixed it till it became a lump.  Nanny and I rolled it on the tray of my high chair and we used some cutters to make little shapes.  It was fun to use.  

Nanny bought a cute little mat for me to use with my play dough.   It has all sorts of farm animals on it. Nanny made a duck with the play dough and Daddy made a pig.  Aren't they clever.  I just make shapes..

Day 18

It was a bit sunny today so Nanny and I went looking for a new park.  We found West Gate Park but Nanny thought it had too much water.  I'm not sure what she meant.  But on we went and we found Albert Park.  It is huge.  I had a go on the climbing equipment and then we started to feed the swans.  Well, those swans must have been really hungry.... they came from everywhere.  They got so close that Nanny had to wave her bag at them and they went hisssss.  It was really funny.  But Nanny got fussy and tried to take me away and they followed us!!!  They just would not go away.  So we sat in the car and that was so much fun too.  I could play with all the knobs and switches that Nanny uses when she drives the car.  I loved it......  Driving must be so much fun..

Day 17

The weather has been cold and wet for the last few days so I had to play inside for most of the time.... boring..
AND look what Nanny brought home the other day.  A cute little house.  She had it in her room till today.  I have some little people that I play with and they love their new little house.  Nanny has some more furniture for it at her house and she will give it to me at Christmas time.

I have had a chance to work on my sticker book too.  Nanny does the cutting and I do the pasting.  I like that bit best.  Nanny found these terrific letters that you can stick on things and I stick them next to some of the pictures.  I am sticking J for Juice.  Can you see E for Eggs?  I have to find V for Vegemite and P for Penguins too.

Nanny and I did some cooking too.  We made little biscuits.  Nanny did the measuring and I made sure that they were yummy.  Then we put them into the oven to cook.  I had one when they were finished.  I think we did a great job Nanny.. 


What will we be doing tomorrow?
I hope it will be a sunny day.

Day 16

Mummy is coming back tonight.  Hurray....

Daddy and Nanny and I went into Seddon to have breakfast this morning.  I had a Baby Chino and some of Nanny's Breakfast.  It was yummy.  We sat out side and I could see lots of things.  At the table next to us were 2 puppies.  They were funny.  I liked them.  Daddy took me for a little walk while Nanny finished her breakfast and then Daddy had to go to work and Nanny took me to the park.

It is a big park with lots of things to do and there were many people there.  I like the climbing part best.  I don't need Nanny to help me at all now.  The swings were very busy.  I had to wait for my turn.  I played with a little boy and we built a tower with bark chip.  That was fun.  I really enjoyed the park.  Thank you for taking me Nanny..

Day 15

Today we went to 'Petitou' which is a small kid's cafe near our house.  They have all sorts of interesting food but I like the Baby Cino's best.  They are yummy.  I like the marshmellows that the lady puts on the plate.  Nanny and I shared a Chicken Pot Pie for lunch.  It was yummy too.  I ate some of the pastry and the carrots and Nanny ate the chicken and celery.  Tara who runs the cafe will be opening the new courtyard soon...  That will be lots of fun because she only has baby toys for us to play with now and there isn't very much room.  Other kids always want to play with the things that I am playing with.  Such Babies.  They have to learn about sharing...

 Excuse me, Nanny!! 

Could you knock next time please....
I am reading here.....

Really..... what was Nanny thinking??? 


Mummy will be back soon.... I can hardly wait......
