Nut boy

uuunnn, due, deee

Nanna's always have the best yards for collecting things and exploring!

I'll admit that he looks really cute here but he was making me mental at this point

Into EVERYTHING

Noah and I decided that we would stay in Perth for the week rather than go back to the farm with Richard yesterday. Tonight I feel really pleased with myself as I managed to get Noah to bed at 7.00pm on the dot. I found it so hard in December to get him to bed on time and I was unable to keep any sort of routine with all the different parties and exciting things going on. Noah and I spent the day in the city shopping and man the shops are still really busy. Noah was majorly fed up with all the shopping and I doubt I will be able to get him to sit in his stroller again tomorrow. When we got home Noah collected some giant gum nuts from Nanna Dee's front yard and then proceeded to throw them over the fence to Mum & Roger's dog Blaze. He thought this was such a fun game. I was so thrilled when I heard him counting before he threw the nuts to the dog. "Uuunnn, due, deee" he would say as he the let the nut fly out of his hand. This was so exciting for me as Noah's vocabulary is very limited. He is also learning the meaning of the words "yes" and "no" although he does manage to get himself terribly muddled up at times. I ask him all the time "Noah do you think Nanna Dee is skinny?" To which he shakes his head and says "nooooooooo". Too funny. Poor Nanna Dee.

This morning, while I was trying to get ready and do a thousand different things before we went out, Noah tipped all of Nanna Dee's gravox over her kitchen floor, pulled stones and dirt out of her beautiful indoor plants and climbed around in her laundry cupboards. He is a handful at the moment and I am trying hard to stay on top of his bad behaviour but it is hard to know what is actual bad behaviour and what is toddler curiosity. Maybe I will give him the benefit of the doubt for a few more days.

My news....... So I was really brave today and got my nose pierced. It stung really bad but it is not too painful. I am only one of very few whose nose actually bleeds excessively when being pierced. I have not seen that much blood since Noah's birth. I think the piercing guy was pretty surprised by it. Noah got sad when he saw me bleeding but now he is always pointing to Mum's little pretty in her nose.
