Learning to ice skate

I'm still finding my feet. I can stand when Mummy holds my hands. I can't stand by myself yet when on skates. I get so excited and try to run straight away.

Boxing Day

On Boxing Day we went to the ice slides in the centre of the city.

I slipped on the steps a few times.

But I still had fun sliding down.

And getting back up again.

Riding the snow mobile

In Uncle Yura's yard there are lots of things to play with. I really liked riding on the snow mobile.

Daddy liked it too because he thought it was much safer than some of the other things I could play with.

All my adventures

I am learning to drive all sorts of things. Today I learnt to drive the boat.

I went for a ride on Daddy's back down to the river.

I just love playing with water, so I was so happy when we went here to the spring.

Life's better when you can play and do what you want instead of following Mummy and Daddy around.

Bears and a playground

We all went to a festival today. There were people dancing and singing.

Abigail and I played with the baby bears. To me they are all puppies.

Then we go to go to the play ground and go on the big slide.

Holidays in Kyrgyzstan (June 9th to 19th)

On the bus to Issyk Kul

Picnic lunch on the way.

I just love playing in water. Daddy says this is cleaner than the toilet.

My Daddy loves me.

More water to play with.

Daddy likes playing with the water too.

Is that how you do it Daddy?

This is how I play with water and with dirt too.

Mud is fun.

Check out the mountains in the background!

I love you too.

And all of you.

This is fun.

My Mummy loves me.

And I love her too.

Catching up on the news

Riding an aeroplane at the library.

Ooh I caught the goat. I'm bigger!

Abigail is driving the car.

I'm climbing on the play equipment.

Sitting in the forest.

In Spring time I had to wear a jacket to keep warm, but it's Summer now.

PJ and the mud

There's a new toy at the playground under the snow - MUD! This is how I found it -

After I fell down a few times Mom just let me play in it.

It is EVERYWHERE!

I really got in and had a good feel of what its like.
Your mittens get a bit sticky.

Its squishy and sticky and when you step your boots come off.
