busy, busy, busy!

happy happy me



i love posing for granny's camera



i have been SO hugely busy since granny arrived from cape town on the 5th may, she has been so much fun to have around! unfortunately, not long after she got here, she got a really bad cold and had to be in bed for a while and have antibiotics... poor granny...

mum & granny's friend aunty carol had arranged to surprise granny last weekend - it went down according to plan, except that granny was sick and couldn't really do as much as she'd have liked to with aunty carol.
aunty carol came over from new zealand to visit us all and it was lovely meeting her - thanks for my buzzy bee raincoat aunty carol!

i have been a bit sick too lately, got a bit of a cough but not too bad - nothing i can't handle!

tomorrow we are going to a town called bright, it's up the the "alpine areas" and is about a 3 and a half hour drive away. aunty rara is going to look after the house and the dogs and the fish and everything while we're away - thanks aunty rara!

mum has been organising and packing and everything, and we'll leave in the morning and hopefully get there around lunch time. the oldies are hoping i'll sleep in the car but i'll leave them guessing until the last minute... i think mum has a stash of "distractions" for just in case, i saw a few books i've never seen before and a new toy too so it might just be fun!
