Our Melbourne trip

Hello everyone, we have been soooo busy since we got back but here are some pictures finally!!
Our first visit was to Pete & Debbies, Pete took me for a ride on his bike and let me play in the chevy, I loved all the cows and sheep and loved being able to explore and run around by myself. Pete did a lot of stunt riding which I just loved, it made me giggle a lot. I had a wonderfull time during our stay there.

We visited my nanny and grandpa, they gave me a gorgeous giggle bear which I kept with me throughout our trip. I loved seeing the puppy, the fish and the duckies too.
Off to Big ears house then, Danny came over one morning and took daddy for a ride in his big truck.

Off then to Shepparton, to stay with Marie. Big ears came with us too. There was lots of yummy food, greek coffee and late nights. Muzzy had puppies which I loved and there were some kittens that kept visiting too. We went for walks and Muzzy gave me a special computer that I played with everyday. I met Georgie, Marie's mum, who gave me a little reindeer and a huge bag of apples she had grown, I ate all of them!!

This is my angel Marie - isn't she beautiful!! She gave me lots of kisses and cuddles. I miss her

On Saturday night, after I went to sleep, Richard, Dave and Kate came over to celebrate mummy's birthday. Mummy used to be in the SES with ishie and Dave and hadn't seen them for years so it was really nice to catch up.

One day we all went to Mitchelton winery for lunch, the food was delicious and I was sooo well behaved that I was allowed to run around outside after they were all finished.

Sadly we had to leave Muzzy and on the way back to Melbourne we stopped for lunch in Nagambie.

Back at big ears house now and Wayne & Kim came over, so did Greg. Waynes car broke down on the way and Stuart came over to rescue them so we got to catch up with him as well.

WHERE ALL RICHMOND RUBBISH BELONGS!!!!

Cameron came over for dinner the next night, Mummy loves catching up with Cam, he is such a beautiful person.

Mummy was very excited to find Jacinta (aka sister Maria) just before we left Cairns. They had lost contact ages ago and they both cried when they saw each other again. She and Michael have a 7month old little boy called Liam, he is gorgeous of course!! The time went so quick, mummy didn't want to leave.

Friday night we went to Slag and Keir's house for dinner, they cooked us an awesome BBQ and gave me a cool book and some gorgeous Thomas PJs. We watched their wedding video and mummy cried all the way through it. Blake is really grown up now and is such a lovely boy, Taylah is gorgeous and did a great job looking after me until it was my bed time.

Saturday morning Caroline, Bec and Rachael came over for a BBQ breakfast. It's always so nice to catch up and they always make mummy laugh. Bec and her friend were helping me collect lemons to throw off Big ears balcony.

Later that day we went to Healsville with big ears, Bec, and Rachael, I loved it and was rivited to the birds of prey show, I clapped all the way through it. There were no rock wallabys in the display so daddy thought he would improvise

Bec got me some long reeds and we played "fishing" some magpie geese came over and nibbled the end and I cracked up

Rebecca and Rachael - all gorgeous and grown up xoxo

We dropped the girls home and when I woke up, we stayed for a visit with Danny & Caroline, I met their big fluffy cat Baxter and their beautiful soft dog called Harley. Next it was on to Wayne and Kimmys house now, I stomped about in "Auntie Pons" work boots making a big noise on their wooden floors

Auntie Pon giving me a few life tips such as "always leave the decanter in the kitchen"

Poor Wayne had been poisoned or had contracted typhoid - but bravely faced a drive into the dandenongs for a bit of a snack. Mummy managed to fight off the offending sickness but muscled into a sandwhich.

Here we are on one of our visits to my great nanny. I kept running off with her table saying "tea party time" she thought that was pretty funny.

We also went on a huge adventure on Puffing Billy, I just had the best time, hanging out the window and hearing the whistle, by the return trip though I had had enough and mummy and daddy had to try every trick to calm me down cause I was overtired.

Cause it was our last night with my boy angels, mummy let big ears wake me up for a play and big cuddles goodbye.

Wayne came over too and shared the rest of his wisdom with me like "3 bottles is probably enough"

Mummy was very sad to say goodbye, and is still missing them all.
Off we went then to stay with Frank for our last night. Frank could not have done any more for us, he cooked for us, played bartender, gave up his bed, and drove us to the airport the next morning. We met his beautiful daughter Rachael who is so polite and was really lovely and shared all her toys with me.

Thank you to everyone we stayed with, to Wayne & Kim for giving up precious time to be with us whenever they could, everyone who timed our visits and theirs around Kylins sleeps, Big ears, Muzzy and Frank for letting us take over their homes, and Pete & Deb for doing so much for Kylin and lending us your car for the last week - you all rock - THANK YOU XOXOXOXOXO
