News flash

This morning Daddy swapped his book that I was reading for my Winnie the Pooh book. When he gave it to me I handed it back and said "read it." Daddy was so impressed with me that he immediately obliged. He later explained that I could say "read it please" but this sounds like a bit of a tongue twister to me.


Then after breakfast Mummy and Daddy were sitting on balls on the floor. They were trying to get me to walk between them. I have been practising walking a lot recently. I really enjoy walking when some one holds both my hands, or walking with the pram by myself. But Mummy and Daddy keep trying to make me walk by myself. I don't really want to though. This morning I thought I would keep them quiet, so I took two steps all by myself. I thought "ok Mummy and Daddy, that's enough now." But they just won't stop bugging me! What can I do to make them stop?

Strawberries

Today we went to Kostya's Dacha. I ate lots and lots of strawberries. I have never had them before, but boy were they yummy. Eventually my Mommy said I had to stop, I got a little rash but it is gone now. The Dacha was lots of fun and I had lots of fun playing with Baba Lyuda too.

On a train

I went on a train with Mommy and Daddy. They each had their own bed and I got to sleep with Mommy. We are going for a holiday and then we will go back home again. I like holidays.

Nearly walking

I'm getting more confudent all the time. The other day at church I walked with the pram all by myself up and down the hall way. Today Mommy and Daddy took me to the park and I walked on the grass. It's really fun.

Little Miss Sociable

I like making friends. Here I am at the park playing with another little girl that I met two minutes earlier. My parents say that I am very "soshble."

I am "Greek"

I was born in Box Hill hospital. Box Hill has a big Greek Church and a big Greek restaurant. Daddy thinks there must have been something Greek in the water where I was born.

I absolutely just love olives, I can't get enough of them. Tonight I had one piece of salami, a bit of bread, some cucumber and 10 olives for supper. When I have got used to the red vegetable that Daddy likes Mummy thinks I will really like Greek salad.

I am 1 now!

I am 1 year old now. I had a birthday party today. Five children and their parents came. They gave me lots of nice presents. Mommy and Daddy gave me a dolly and a guitar.

If you want to see more pictures from my birthday then send an email to Daddy and he will send them to you.

Here I am blowing out the candle on the cake that me Mommy made.
