More summer fun

It's great having Dan around, and I'll be really sad when he goes back to Ireland next week. I have loved having a 'manny' to look after me for a change. Here's me with Daddy and Dan down at the pool on Sunday.
We now have a page on YouTube where we upload some videos. For some reason this site doesn't cope so well with videos.




Ping! Watch those teeth little man!

Oscar finds an interesting way of flossing his teeth by the pool!





Summer swimming

I have been having twice-weekly swimming lessons with Anne, and Daniel's been taking me to the pool almost every day so my swimming is really coming along. I can pretty much make my way accross the pool on my own and I am loving it.

This is me last Sunday with Daddy, and Oscar even joined us too.






Daddy's girls

July 18th was Mummy and Daddy's 5th wedding anniversary... where was I? I would love to have been a bridesmaid at that at least. Anyway, that morning I had to go to the dentist and Mummy was so proud of me she bought me a new bride and groom Barbie and Ken, and four bridesmaids dresses for my other Barbies to be bridesmaids.
When Daddy came home he had a bunch of flowers for noth his girls. Mummy's face looks a bit shiny here, but Hong Kong is pretty hot an humid at the moment.
That night Mummy and Daddy went out for dinner, and I watched The Sound of Music in bed. Great day!




Thursday

My new mate

Cousin Daniel is here to look after me for the next six weeks.
Good things: he reads me four stories a night, takes me swimming every day and to wherever I want to go.
Bad things: he's not fooled by the whining, ignores me when I say 'I want...', doesn't get excited about anything princess and generally ignores me when I am being naughty. Damn. Better start behaving myself then or it's going to be a LONG July!


Nuala dares...

You know, this time last year I wouldn't even dare getting on the bouncy slide, but this year being almost four and actually getting quite big now, I decided to give it a go with mummy. It took me a few goes to go right to the end and slide down the slide... but I did it!





Lull in rainy season

Rainy season started early this year, and we have even had a typhoon 8 which meant we all got the day of school and work. When you get a nice day, it's brilliant to get out of the heat and down to the Marina club for some fun!
This is Daddy and I on the slide...

Me going solo- whoopeee!


My new swimming buddy, cousin Daniel

Girl behaving badly

Apparently Granny Kathleen often asks Mummy if I am eating better nowadays. The answer is... sometimes I find it very difficult not to make a drama out of eating a bit of salmon risotto.


Princess Nuala

Because, sometimes, you know, it's not all about Oscar!





Year End Spectacle

This is the year end school play or 'spectacle' the Petite Section Bilingue did with the big kids from the Moyenne class. It was called 'Swimmy' and I was one of the little red fish with the rest of my class. The kids from the moyenne class were tuna fish (who tried to scare and eat us), meduse (jellyfish), seaweed, lobsters and lantern fish. It was such good fun and all the mummys and daddys were laughing and crying at the same time. Next September when I go back I will be in the moyenne class... I am getting so big!!




My old bed

In the olden days when I was a baby, this used to be my bed. Now it's Oscar's, but I quite enjoy getting into bed with him and pretending to be a baby myself.

Two little monkeys...




Bruiser Binnion

Daddy calls Oscar, 'Chunk'. I can see why.

"Oi, did I hear you call me FAT?"

Well, I am not happy about that. Got it?

Come here while I show you what makes me happy... come on...
