Hello everyone!
Well I have just spent a wonderful week in Austria with Dada, Mama and my Zio Peter. We stayed in a town called Schladming in the Alps. As you can see, it was really beautiful there.

I really enjoyed the snow this time - I even had a go at snowboarding. I think it might have been a bit easier if we had a board my size though.

Sitting on Mama's lap seemed to work best. She seemed to like it too!

I have to say that Zio's snowmen are improving. I try to encourage him as much as I can.

On the way home we stopped in Salzburg for a couple of nights. It was really pretty there but Mama kept singing funny songs all the time about the hills being alive and stuff. Sometimes she is a bit silly.

Well it just gets better and better here in Germany. Today is Rosenmontag, it is part of the Karneval festival they celebrate before the beginning of Lent. They have a big parade and guess what? It went down our street! We could see it from our windows but we went down on the street so that we could shout "karmelle, karmelle" (which means lollies, lollies) and the people in the parade threw them at us. I got bonked in the head with a Kinder Surprise egg, but I didn't mind a bit.

You can see here how they throw the lollies out of the floats, and everyone scrambles to catch them.

Hello everyone,

Well I was very sad to see my Noni go last week, but luckily for me my Aunty Barbie came to visit the very same day!

Mama and Aunty Barbie and I have just got back from Rome. We had a beautiful holiday and I had lots of fun, even though Mama and Aunty Barbie kept making me stop so they could drink coffee.

We went to the children's museum where they had everything my size! There was a mini post office and a mini tv studio (I pretended to do the weather and saw myself on tv) and a mini supermarket and lots more. I had the best fun with a big puzzle about recycling. Aunty Barbie and Mama helped a bit, but I did most of the work.

Off course I loved Italian food. My zia highly recommended the stuffed fried olives and the arancini, and I reckon she knows what she's talking about. They were GOOD.

Happy New Year Everybody!

Hello again everyone,

I just wanted to show you a few more photos of me here in Bonn. Noni made me some playdough, so I've been exploring a whole new world of squishiness.

I don't like anything that gets too messy though. Then I say "messy messy" and make Mama clean everything up.

My hair goes in pigtails now. Mama cried when she saw me with them, she says I am a big girl now.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I am just back from a wonderful holiday in Val Thorens in France in the snow. I went with Mama, Dada, Noni and Zio. We had so much fun and to top it all off people kept giving me presents and saying things about Christmas. It was great.

Now, I have to tell you I had my first holiday romance while I was away. We all went out to dinner on Christmas Eve and on the table next to us was a blonde boy in a high chair called Tom. I think he was Dutch. Anyway, he kept blowing me kisses and so I went over to give him a real one. When I got back to the table I told Noni, "kiss boy". He was very nice.

Father Christmas came to the dinner too. He scared the life out of me, coming up from behind, but once he was gone and had left me a little toy snow dog, I wanted him back. I kept looking for him and saying "again again".
