G’day Harry here again….

Well another week passes and yet again I have been a very busy boy… I am now smiling on cue and I just love showing off my great gums.

Last week Uncle Brett arrived back from the US… He’s been over there working for 3mths and it was the first time that I got to meet him. He stayed for a week and we had such a good time. He helped mum make a DVD of all the video’s and Pictures she has taken of me. He put music behind it and everything and I am currently in negotiations with Warner Bros and this cool guy named Steven Spielberg to make a feature length film from it.

He also spent heaps of time teaching me to poke my tongue out and laugh… I almost have it a little more practice and I will have it… Uncle Brett helped mum heaps while he was here… he helped bath me, put me to sleep, play with me, and I even jumped into bed with him one morning..

Last week I went to my first Gymbaroo class. We are booked in to go every Monday. I got to meet these other people that are little just like me. It nice to get some reassurance that you are normal every once in a while. At Gymbaroo we do exercises, sing (well the big people sing and all the little kids just smile and laugh at them), dance (mum holds me and I get to dance with all the other kids, there is this one little girl in particular that I have taken a real shine to, I made sure we sat next to her), play on the equipment. Learn to roll, and heaps of other stuff.

My first class was really exhausting and I ended up falling asleep with about 15 mins to go… but the Monday that has just passed I lasted the whole class and even got to chat to the father of the little girl that I like ( I sat next to her again).

I also had my 2 month visit with the baby clinic… Doing well as usual. I am now 59.5cm long and weigh 6.4 kilos (currently off the charts and they are making up a special chart for me and my friend Jake who is 5 ½ months old and he is 9.5kilos).

The lady did tell Mum that I was starting to get a bit of a flat head on one side. I really like to sleep on one side of me head but now mum has got this damm head wedge that she puts there so I have to use the other side for a while. I know she is doing it for my own good and she has my best interests at heart and she did make a very good point when she said that the no one would want to pick up a dude with a flat head !!!!.. and we can’t have that… I got a rep to protect.

Last Thursday Ma, Pa and Granny came to visit… as you can see I had to do some major grooming before they arrived ha ha!!

I also learnt this cool new thing to show them… I can now hold my head up really well and now can spend more time on my belly; again this will help my flat head!!!

I had a great time and there was never a shortage of people wanting a “Harry Fix”, I took them all shopping on Friday at Jesmond and of course I just flashed some smiles and I got some good stuff… got all these guys worked out now… I have them twisted around my little finger… we also went out for dinner to the Chinese down at my Local, Dad, Pa and Granny all went down for a beer before hand and Mum, Ma, Uncle Brett and I all went down a little after.. We were hoping Granny was going to pull a jackpot on the pokies and shout dinner. When she came back from the pokie room I looked at her and she said “ don’t’ talk to me about it” so I just smiled at her and thought I should just leave that alone as it didn’t look like it was her night on the pokies…

On Saturday night it was “photo night” I thought I was a celebrity on the red carpet at the Oscars I had that many flashes going off around me that I started to see stars… I first posed with Uncle Brett, then Ma and Pa, Then Granny and then I asked if we could get a family shot of me, Mum and Dad… I have been trying to organise one for about 7 weeks now and they just keep putting it off… anyway I had them both cornered but as you can see.. they just couldn’t sit and smile, no no no, they had to ruin a good shot didn’t they… they thought it was hilarious, I say “it’s all fun and games until someone sticks your toe up their nose!!”

On Sunday dad went fishing again, and again I wanted to go with him but mum wouldn’t let me, she said he was taking out the boat and they don’t make life jackets to fit me… Now I find this really hard to believe and if they don’t then there is defiantly a market there… anyway I hung at home with her but when dad got home I raced out to see what he had caught… he got a brim, a whiting and a blue swimmer crab.. I was so proud of him and can’t wait to find a life jacket so I can go too…

On Tuesday me and mum went and had morning tea with the other mum’s and bubs from her and dad’s antenatal group… I got to meet everyone for the first time and again got to hang out with some kids my own age… I love mum and dad but sometimes they just do my head in and I crave some normality… They are called the yummy mummies and after spending almost 3 hours with them all I can see why… We are going to hang out with them once a fortnight and next time they are all coming to my place…

Yesterday Dad’s cousin Teresa and His Aunty Susie came to visit so dad said “Let’s go to lunch” so me and Mum went in to meet everyone and to have lunch with dad… I am so lucky because I got to see my dad at lunch time today and I only usually get to do that on dad stay at home days.. I love my dad

Today I got my first immunisations… I was a bit worries they were going to jab me in the bum but I’m a big brave boy though and they don’t scare me at all… I let our a squark for about 20seconds then mum gave me a big cuddle and I was fine…. Mum kept telling me the doctor was going to be really nice and at first she was sweet talking me, telling me how cute I am and how big I am and I was smiling at her and having a great time and then WHAM !!!.. out of no where she jammed this thing in my leg!!.. next time I’ll be ready for her. Check out the damage below.. I got of these on each leg !!

Anyway it’s been a HUGE week for me and frankly I’m exhausted so am going to get in some serious slumber and get some tucker into me.. I overhead the Dr telling mum to give me extra fluids for the next 24 hrs so I’m not about to back away from that… See you soon
