Tax Time
At this time of year I dread the drudgery of paperwork and all things income - of lack thereof. So there is plenty of procrastination - watching TV, having snacks, lying about pretending that things don't need to get done.
But Dad seems to enjoy it. So I go hang out in the gardens with Mum and let the bearded one deal with it all.

One Year
Saturday, July 2, 2011
A little older, a little wider
Are you ready for it?
Are you really ready?
Ok. Here it comes.
Mega-multi-super-update.
Had my 12 month check-up at the MCHN. Things are going pretty well. Continuing to grow. At this rate I will be taller than Dad by a couple centimeter. But for now, I am 11.2kg light and 79cm short. I am growing up fast! So here is a pic of me looking like MacGuyver...
Since that fateful day over a year ago, there have been quite a few changes. Not only for me. Pip has had to deal with a whole lot less snooze time and a whole lot more noise.
For example: "That thing" (the closest human equivalent for Pips expression upon seeing me a little too close)
Another: "But why are there no bowls of noms for me in the lounge room?"
And the constant plea: "Has he gone to bed yet?"
Of course, my changes are far more interesting. One skill that I lack, which would be most excellent, is being able to stand up without holding onto something. If I could, there would be no environment unnavigable, i.e. I could walk everywhere! But when the worst comes to the worst, I can always start climbing.
Starting to make progress in other areas too. I have such advanced motor skillz that I can spoon feed myself, my chair, and the floor at the same time!!
I seem to have spent an awful lot of time driving Dad around for his appointments and what-not. So much so I have had to resort to having car books and a car blanket.
The biggest event most recently was my birthday. I got to see most of the people I know, I got more presents that my entire body weight. So here are a few shots of me wearing, using, eating or just playing with some of the new things! Thanks to everyone that shared some time with me :)
My new Train - TooT TooT!
New Hat and Jumper - good timing too, the weather is not like a Melbourne summer at all.
Despite both Mum and Dad being busy almost constantly, we did get the chance to find a pile of dirt to play in on our most recent visit to the botanical gardens. Maybe next time I will get to try tasting some before they find me.
Thanks for visiting!
Sorry about the long delay in updates.
