Holiday

Daddy had the first two weeks in September off work so I got to see lots of him!

We went to Croydon to stay with Granny & Grandpa so Mummy could go on a revision course for her exam. Daddy looked after me all day (with a bit of help from Granny, Great Granny and Auntie Emma).

Back in Sheffield we went to Meadowhall for the day where Daddy bought me a great new toy to play with (Mummy was cross with him as she wanted to buy more clothes!). Everyone got something apart from Daddy! After a trip to the doctors to get some medicine to stop me being so sick after my feeds we loaded the car and went to stay with Grandma and Grandad for a few days.

I got to try out Grandma's pushchair when we went to the beach and to walk round Skegness.

Grandma, Daddy & Mummy finally managed to get an ice cream - there seemed to be a shortage on the day we went! I also saw the donkeys, although I am still a bit small to have a ride on one.

I also found a new toy to play with.

Mummy and Grandma went to see the dance show on Friday night and I was very good and went to sleep just in time for Daddy to watch the rugby. On Saturdya night Mummy & Daddy managed to go out for a meal whilst Grandma looked after me. Daddy got in trouble when they got back though for waking me up!

After loading the car (again!) we went to Norfolk to stay in a nice barn conversion with Granny, Grandpa and Auntie Emma. The barn confused Roxie because all the bedrooms were downstairs and the living space upstairs! The barn had a big garden which Roxie enjoyed chasing her ball round.

On Monday we went to Sandringham to have a look round the Queen's house. I liked looking at all the paintings, although I feel asleep when we went round the museum so I missed seeing some of the cars.

On Tuesday we went to Snettisham Deer Park. I got to meet lots of animals in the farmyard and Mummy & Daddy fed the greedy goats. We then went on a tractor ride where we saw all the deer. They all swam across the lake when the tractor stopped and then we were able to feed them. The stag was called Albert and he had 60 girlfriends! After seeing the deer we had a meal with Grandma and Grandad and Granny and Grandpa. There were lots of exciting things to look at so I had to be pushed round the car park to go to sleep. Everytime I came back inside I woke up again! When we got back to the cottage Granny & Auntie Emma pushed me round the garden of the barn so Mummy & Daddy could catch up on some sleep!

The next day we went to Hunstanton to visit the sealife center. We saw the seal and lots of different fish and then got to se the penguins being fed! All the grown ups then had fish & chips and ice cream later inthe afternoon. Mummy then did lots of Christmas shopping at the lavender farm on the way back to the barn.

We were supposed to travel back to Sheffield on Thursday after meeting Sanjay and Kavitha in Norwich. Sanjays sofa was a bit slippy and I kept sliding off and had to be propped up to stop me falling off! When Kavitha got back from work we all went for a meal at a very nice pub. I got to play with the nice lady sat next to Daddy whilst he ate his meal! We didn't get very far home before a warning light came on in Daddy's car so we went back to the barn to stay the night. Luckily there wasn't anything major wrong with Daddy's car - he took it to the garage the next morning and we managed to drive to York just in time for me to do my next modelling job!

I got to model a very fancy Mammas & Pappas bouncy chair and will be in the Spring Summer 2008 catalogue!

I now weight 13lbs 5 ozs and have just started baby rice. Mummy has made lots of purees for me and hopeflly I will ge to start these at the weekend!

I'm off for a sleep now before Grandma arrives to look after me whilst Daddy is at work and Mummy does some revision for her exams.

Love
