Merry Christmas to you

Merry Christmas to you all...from all of us!
look what Grandma gave me for Christmas...an orange! Yummy!
and Mum and Dad gave me a seat to sit in at the table...
here's a present for you, Mummy....
let's look and see what came in these funny stockings, Grandma....
I helped Daddy put together the hula hoops...that should keep us fit indoors this winter....
and Mummy cooked us a very yummy healthy bacon and eggs munch...that is New York for morning tea and lunch!

complete with gingerbread men! Yum again!
Then we decided to go for a walk down to the local church, that was having a service in English at midday. A lot of the churches, including Mummy's and Daddy's have their services on Christmas eve at night, which is hard when Grandma has been not well, and a little boy is usually in bed! Maybe next year!
It was a very pretty church, and had very pretty music...tha lady had a very pretty voice...
unfortunately there wasn't much space for a toddler to run around, without a lot of candles to knock over....
so we decided we had better go for a walk after....
after we had our photos taken...Mummy looked great in her pretty skirt and boots...


Just as well we took Grandma down to see the winter wonderland down at the park....

Yesterday morning, a parcel arrived at breakfasst time...
so I pushed it down the steps,
and waited for mum to come and open it for me....
and waited while she unattached it from the box....
and look what was in there....from Aunty Nat and Uncle Ian...and Robert and Mimi and Hannah....
I love saying all those names...they sure know what a little guy enjoys playing with don't they? Uncle Ian played peep-o with me on skype one day a little while ago..that was funny! Sorry we didn't manage to connect at Christmas time...but I am sure it won't be long....sometimes I am asleep, or nearly asleep, when it is the right time in Australia...sometimes I am chatting to Nan-ma and Grand-dad in New Zealand!
and look at me being silly for Grandma while she tries to take my photo....
Grandma wanted to show Aunty Kathy and Uncle Allan and all the kids, the cute shirt they gave me for my birthday...it is just the right size now...thanks so much...and a very cute one too, with a reindeer on it I think! Grandma missed photographing the t-shirt that they sent this time, so thought she would show you this one instead!

She also missed taking a photo of the musical ferris wheel she gave me for Christmas...that you will have to wait till next time perhaps...if she remembers...
Today, Daddy and Grandma and Liam went for a walk over to the playground and park again...it was 6 degrees (celsius) and fine and sunny....and how warm it felt. Grandma wanted to stay out for ages and ages.,..she must be feeling better. The rain from yesterday had washed away all the snow...and left all these puddles for me to play in!! But we had to go back home to see how Mummy was feeling (she thinks she has a fresh cold)...and have a haircut....and a bath!! It has been a while since I had a bath. Life gets a bit busy while you are having fun, doesn't it?

ps Grandma thinks mummy ought to stay away from the cat downstairs she is minding...!! It might be the hayfever that she has!
