Easter's No Problem!

Someone told me it's all happenin'

This week, Dirk learned to say a new word: "Giraffe."

So, Mummy bought him a toy giraffe.

Dirk loved it so much that today Mummy and Daddy took him to the zoo.

Here he is in the ticket queue, regarding the other children with unconcealed suspicion.

At this moment in Dirk's life, giraffes were four inches high and lions were a Flash animation. Boy, was he in for a surprise...

Penguins. No stammering.
What's Dirk seen...? A giraffe?
No! It's his new favourite. (And his latest word!!!)RHINO !
Dirk's picnic.


After lunch, Dirk saw elephants, cheetahs, bears, lions, chimps, wallabies, flamingoes and camels.
Here he's actually pointing at some strange little creatures hiding behind the bench. He gave chase, but they escaped his clutches!


Dirk enjoyed his trip to the zoo very much. Jasper slept.

Daddy getting ready... Us getting out of the way!

Today, Daddy finally started getting the flat ready for the new baby. After checking the cot was OK, Dirk went to the park to meet Sarah and Kenny.

Round and Round the Arndale

After a quick look at the flowers, Dirk went shopping with Mummy, Daddy and Big Brother Connor. He went on a merry-go-round for the first time. After a very serious start, he relaxed and enjoyed it.

Stockgrove

Today Dirk went to Stockgrove and saw Sarah and Kenny.


Sarah showed him how to play with molehills. Then she fed him a live worm. Yum yum!

"Come on Dirk, it's just a little one, mwoah-ha-ha-ha!"

"Honestly Aunty Sarah, I couldn't eat another thing! I'm stuffed! MUMMYYYY!!"

Mead Open Farm

This afternoon, Dirk went to Mead Open Farm. He saw lots of animals.
