Saturday 24th December 2011 (christmas eve, yay)

When i woke up today, it was already 8am which is good. I got up and had cuddles with the cats, mummy wrapped me up in her dressing gown to keep me warm. Then the doorbell rang and mummy had to get it back quickly so she could answer the door. It was a parcel. Mummy opened it and inside was a little present for me, from Donna (mummy's penpal) and Josh (my penpal-Donna is his mummy) That made me smile.
Then we all got ready and got on the bus to go to town again. We went and had breakfast in MacDonalds and then Dad had to go to work. Me and mummy went to a shop called Boswells. I chose a few playmobil things for mummy to choose from, to buy with the money that grandad had given her for me. Then we went to buy a few more food things then it was time to go home. When we were nearly home, Nana phoned mummy and said she would come and pick us up soon (we are using her car til boxing day) and when we got off the bus, Nana was there in her car already, she gave us a lift down to the flats. I stayed in the car and mummy ran upstairs quickly. Nana tidied her car up as it was messy. Then mummy came back down with presents and cards. I had to write a card quickly for Grandad. We went to his work and mummy got out and gave him his presents (one of the photo frames i had decorated) and the cards. Then we had to go and see mummy's Nanny. that was funny, mummy having a nanny too. It is Nana's mummy. When we got there, Nana opened the door and her mummy was sleeping in the bed. So i didn't get to see her after all, i just saw a lump in the bed, that made us all laugh as i thought we were going to see a person and i didn't. Mummy and Nana saw a hand though. (Nana's mummy's hand on top of the sheets)
Then we went to the club to pick chris' car up. Nana said that we were getting 3 chairs too, so i would sit in the front. but i asked where was mummy going to sit. But they told me that we were getting chris' car then. Then we drove back to Nana's house, she is naughty, she drives too fast!!!
At Nana's house, i was hungry!! I'm always hungry when we are there. I had a sandwich, well bread and butter and mummy had to make everyone sandwiches. Then Nana had to go out so she asked mummy to was up and if she wanted to, to dry up too. Mummy said to uncle alex, you can dry up then, he said to me, you can dry up then. That was funny. I did dry up and uncle alex didn't give me the tenner he said he would :( (grown up harriet, ask him for it now, with interest hehe)
Then Nana came back (when she was gone, i coloured some cards and wrapped julies presents (Dad's mummy) one of the presents for Julie is one of the photoframes i decorated. We then all got in the car and went to the club again. Nana, Chris and uncle Alex got out and me and mummy went to get Dad. He was at work.
Then we drove to witney and went to get some food and petrol. Then it was time to drive to his family's house. When we first got there, i went shy and didn't talk much. I did give Julier her card and presents though and his Nan her card for the family. It took a little while to start talking. I had a chocolate from the tree, Dad raced me over to it, trying to get me up as i was shy and in the end Julie came and held my hand to take me. I secretly ate it as i didn't want them watching me. Then i was playing a game with Nikki, his aunt. I was showing her my ring that Dad bought me. I kept showing her the back of it though, instead of the stone in it. It was a funny game. It made me laugh and they were laughing too. Then Julie bought me a cracker to pull with mummy. It had a plastic leap frog. I had lots of fun with that. Mummy gave me the cracker bits and said i could use them to make the frog jump over it. I liked that, then Julie put the plate down for me to get the frog to jump onto. I played with the frog for ages. then went to the kitchen and this was great fun. I laid on my back and scooted along on my back, up and down up and down. Then i knocked over the clothes drier, oops, but it was ok. I started to play with the cats then, they have a crinkly toy and i kept throwing it for them. I was throwing it up and down the room and then went to the stairs and started doing the same there too. It was funny. Then they stopped chasing it and just sat there looking at me, that was funny too. Then it was time to go. I used a torch to show us the way to the car as it was dark outside now. In the car, i gave Julie a big hug then we were off.
At home, we unpacked the shopping. Then i went to the bedroom with Dad and wrapped something up for mummy. Then i came back and gave her the card i had just written. Then i got the key from Dad that i put outside for Santa. We got his chocolate cake ready and cup of milk. Then the water for the reindeer and a carrot. I put them all in the living room and mummy closed the cats in the kitchen so they don't be naughty and eat them. Then i reminded mummy that she needed to check if there is a message from santa. There was!!! He said i've been good and am on the nice list!! Yay. That made me happy. Then it was bedtime.
I didn't want a story or music, just wanted to go straight to bed. But then after a little while, i called mummy. I said i couldnt' go to sleep as i kept thinking about Santa. She gave me another cuddle and asked if i would like my music on to relax me, so i could just listen to that instead and go to sleep that way. I asked if i could look at a book for a little while. Mummy gave me a kiss and gave me a book. I sat and looked at that and when i was finished, called mummy again. She put the book away and i asked if i could keep the light on this time. She left it on for me. I was asleep very quickly this time. I have had lots of fun today and loved going to see Dad's family. I can't wait til tomorrow, i have been looking forward to it for ages and i can't believe it is here already!!!!!

Friday 23rd December 2011

We had a fun day today, Dad had to go to work though :( me and mummy stayed home and we made cards, a christmas tree and i decorated photo frames. It was fun and lots of mess was made :)
Then it was time to go and meet Dad from work, so we went to town and when he finished at 3pm, we went to get more things from the shops for christmas day. We got food and looked for presents that i could buy with the £10 that Grandad had sent me in the post. Everything i wanted had sold out, so mummy said we would try again tomorrow, in a different shop.
At home, we had dinner and then not long after that it was bedtime. I got all my stickers on my chart, so had a good day with listening (although mummy says that in the afternoon, i did start to stop listening quite so much)
Then it was bedtime. Mummy read the story that the pretend santa gave me at school. I know its not the real one, he just helps santa.

Thursday 22nd December 2011

When i woke up this morning, at 7.20am, i asked mummy it if was time to get up and because it was dark outside, mummy said it wasn't, that it was still night time. I went for a wee, then mummy tucked me back in and said night night quietly to me and i went back to sleep til 8am, cheeky mummy.

When we had been shopping for food for christmas day, mummy told me that there was a message from santa for me :) i sat and watched santa and it was really exciting, he talked to me, he even knew how old i was!! and that i go to school and he knew that i have been trying to listen to my parents more. He had photo's of me too, one of me on holiday and one of me at atomicpizza the other day. He really is magic. Then he said he had a special machine that the elves made, to find out if children have been naughty or nice. They put my photo into their machine and it took a little while, but then the lights started flashing, they flashed red :( that means i'm not on his nice list. Santa said i need to try harder to listen to my parents. That made me sad and i cried a little bit, mummy gave me cuddles and we talked, i said i'm going to try extra hard to be good and to listen.
I was good for the rest of the day.
I have a bit of a cold coming on too, hope i'm not poorly for christmas day.
Mummy checked on me at bedtime, to see if i was nearly asleep, she knew that i was because i had started picking my nose, mummy says that i always do this when i'm falling to sleep (she wants to know if the grown up Harriet does this too???)

Wednesday 21st December 2011

Guess what!!!? Mummy has been rubbish again hehe. I think what we're going to have to do is agree that this will get updated when mummy can remember to come online and do it. Mummy has such a good forgetery :)

This is going to be all the things you have been up to since the last time i updated it :)

Friday 25th November 2011
When i was playing with my playmobil with mummy today, i had 3 of the people. I told mummy that there was daddy tom, mummy and me. Then when we were playing, i asked mummy if i could call Tom, Dad now. Mummy said that if i wanted to, then of course i can. We carried on playing.

Wednesday 30th November 2011
Today my school is closed and mummy is at work. So i went with Tom for the day :) we went to Witney to see his family. I loved spending the day with him, although i was a little bit naughty, ooops. I wanted a toy from a toy shop that we went in and when it was time to go, i wouldnt' move. Then when we got outside, i went and stood in the phone box and wouldn't come out for his mum, his nan or him. But the rest of the day was nice. We went home and watched TV together, i played and i liked it. But i did miss mummy lots. Mummy says that Tom should take it as a compliment that i play up for him a bit hehe because that means i think of him the same way that i think of her. Because i dont' play just anyone up hehe.

Thursday 1st December 2011
When we got home today, mummy gave me a shower. Mummy didn't get in with me this time, she still had her clothes on (normally she gets in with me) I kept complaining that i was cold, so mummy had to get in with me after all hehe. Mummy had her wellies on and got in with her clothes on and her wellies too. It was funny that she got in dressed and with her wellies too.

Friday 2nd December 2011
On the way to the bus stop today, me and mummy were being trains because you could see your breath in the cold air.

Saturday 3rd December 2011
Mummy told me about some special tablets today called 'disclosing tablets' she said that we can do them later and they will be able to show me if i clean my teeth well or not. I was excited to do it. At home, i chewed the tablet and then showed mummy. I had some red and some blue, but not as much as mummy was expecting though. I liked using them. I cleaned my teeth really well after that.
After doing my teeth, i went into the living room and said to Tom "im going to call you dad now, because it's a nice name" then ran out. At bedtime, which was quite soon after that, I stood in the hallway, so he couldnt' see me and then shouted "night night dad" and went all shy.

Sunday 4th December 2011
We made snowmen for my christmas cards today, i used my fingers to do finger prints and then coloured the things in, like scarfs, hats and things like that.
Doing the bodies (the pink thing on my hand is a wrist guard for riding bikes that i like wearing lots, for some reason)

Drawing the hats, scarves etc on

My first snowmen ready for a christmas card :)



































Wednesday 7th December 2011
On my way home on the bus, i was eating an apple and my next wobbly tooth fell out :) It bled a little bit. When i went to bed, i made sure i put it in my special box for the tooth fairy.

Thursday 8th December 2011
When i woke up today, i looked at my box and there was a card there. It had a picture of a palace on and it said it was the tooth fairy's home :D so now i know what her home looks like (me and mummy were talking about that the other day) I had two coins too (2 £1 coins)

Friday 9th December 2011
We went to cowley centre and i bought a christmas tree and some decorations to put in my room :) when we got home, i was allowed to decorate it before going to bed. I really like having my own christmas tree :)
 
Me with my christmas tree :)


Saturday 10th December 2011
It was good fun this morning. Dad (this is what mummy will write Tom as from now on as i am calling him that now) went to work and me and mummy were in their room, being very silly, i laughed and laughed. I told mummy "i wish i had you at school" and when mummy asked me why, i laughed again and said "you're funny"
We went to Nana's today and i took a bag with me because i'm staying the night :) yay. When we got there, we stayed for a little while, then we all got in Chris' car and drove to get Nana's car. Mummy went off in that car and i stayed with Nana.

Sunday 11th December 2011
When mummy got to Nana's to get me, we had lots of cuddles :) she even carried me around the kitchen so we could have cuddles hehe.
I told mummy today that her and dad are together because they are the same, they both drink water when we're out, not at home, so they're the same! Mummy asked is it not because they love each other and i laughed and said no, its because you're the same. This made mummy laugh.
We have my school photo too now, we picked it up on friday and mummy forgot to put it in there, so is going to put it here :)
Mummy and Dad say that i look beautiful in my school photo :)

Monday 12th December 2011
At bedtime i was asking mummy about god!! I said "do you believe in god mummy" mummy avoided this question very well haha. I wrote santa a letter, in the letter i have asked for 'spongebob socks, hello kitty toothbrush and my own body spray' thats it!

Wednesday 14th December 2011
Today is my school play :D
I said my tummy was hurting a little bit this morning and mummy reminded me that when i feel nervous, my tummy hurts (it did when i started school and when i had my operation) I remembered and said oh yeah. Mummy and Dad are coming to see me in my play! When mummy got to my school, we found seats, i showed her where to sit, saying she had to sit in front of me because parents like to see their children. Then Dad phoned her, he was outside, so mummy went to meet him. Then they both sat there. I had to go to a classroom before singing so they could paint my face and put tinsel on my hands. Mummy went and sat with Dad. When we came out, i looked for them, i found them straight away. They smiled at me :) it made me happy to see them both there. We sang songs to the play and i was so nosy, every time i saw someone with a camera i would look up at them then i was picking my nose (i was on the front row, so everyone could see hehe) one of the times i picked my nose, i missed and slipped so hit my eye instead, ooops. Mummy got lots of photos but has put the cable from the camera somewhere safe, and can't find it. So once she finds it, will put the photo's on here of me singing.

Thursday 15th December 2011
When we got home today, Dad was at work (this always makes me sad when i don't get to see him after school) me and mummy went home and then i finished my letter and little book i made for Josh (my penpal) i moaned about writing so much at first, but then mummy made it into a game. She was crossing out the letters as i wrote them (she wrote what i wanted to say and i copied) but then i started getting faster and mummy kept saying (in a silly voice) slow down, you're going too fast for me. It was fun. When i finished my letter and little book (its a book about our family) i finished my christmas cards that i started the other day. I done one for Joe and one for John. (which i posted on Friday) 
My finished card :D


This is the mess that I made hehe

Friday 16th December 2011
Today was the last day of term, i was allowed to take a toy to school. I chose two cars and some small teddies i have.
Mummy picked me up from after school club at just after 3 (school closed at 2pm) and then we had to walk really fast to mummy's work. When we were nearly there, i kept saying "mummy, my feet are actually killing me" when we got there, i got to see some of the children that mummy looks after. I liked that. They all went home and then i helped mummy. Her room has been swapped over so i was helping her do a display and sort things out. I liked helping her at work. It was all finished at just after 5 so we left and went to the bus. We got to see Dad at the bus stop, he had to go to work, but we got to have a cuddle first, yay. At home, me and mummy played my shopping game.
At bedtime, i wanted to listen to Joe's band (Dedlok) so mummy put it on and i went to sleep listening to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfIbMhdDVjY

Saturday 17th December 2011
Dad went to work this morning so me and mummy stayed home. Mummy was helping me practice my reading, by writing short words for me to read. Then mummy started writing things like 'my bum smells, i smell of poo' it was really funny. Then when i read it, it sounded like i was saying i smelled of poo. I really liked that game. We played it for ages. We put the christmas tree up this morning too, because mummy said that by the time we get home later, it will be too late to put it up as well as decorate it. We aer going to decorate it with Dad. The morning went really fast because we were having so much fun. Then it was time to go and meet Dad from work, they have told me that i'm going for a surprise. We met Dad and then went and done some shopping. I went into the green shop (hawkins bazarre-i know shops by the colour of their signs) and mummy went to another one quicky. After we had finished shopping, they told me it was time for my surprise. We got on the bus and i still didn't know where we were going. When we got off the bus, i said it was no-where, just near my school. We carried on walking and mummy and Dad said that was my surprise (they were teasing) then we got near the place i've wanted to go to for ages, atomicpizzas! It has a big simpsons thing in that mummy and Dad saw when they went there ages ago. We got inside and i saw it straight away, i said "wow thats huge" We sat down and mummy said they do the same hotdog that i had when we went to atomicburgers a little while ago, so i asked for that. It was huge and i ate it all! I don't normally eat chips, not even from macdonalds really but i finished all of them. It was so yummy.
I ate all of this all by myself and it was so tasty
almost finished, i liked squeezing the ketchup myself

look how full up my tummy is!!

When we had finished, we went to the toilet and on the wall there was a big painting of scooby doo and his friends, that was cool. We all got given a vimto lolly when mummy and Dad paid, i liked that. Before leaving, i posed with the simpsons, i cuddled them, sat on their lap and sat next to them, it was so cool, i loved it there, my surprise was great!
When we got home, it was time to decorate the tree. Me, mummy and Dad decorated it altogether. I liked doing it altogether, it was fun. Then mummy set the timer on the camera and took a picture of us all together with the tree.

Sunday 18th December 2011
When we got home, there was sick with bits of tree in it, Boo is such a naughty cat, she has been eating the tree!!

Monday 19th December 2011
We had boiled eggs for breakfast today, it was nice to have breakfast altogether. Dad had to go to work in the afternoon so me and mummy got the bus with him as we had to go to mummy's work for a little while. We got off the bus before Dad, so we said bye and had kisses. At mummy's work, we went up to the staff room. I played on mummy's phone and mummy worked on the computer. Then she was finished and it was time to go home. At home, whilst mummy cooked my dinner, she put 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' on for me to watch, it was so funny, i liked watching that. Then it was bedtime. At bedtime, we talked instead of a story. I told mummy "it's nearly christmas, but after christmas, its my birthday and i'll be 6! Then i'll be able to lick my elbow, thats the most important thing" (i have been telling mummy and Dad that when i turn 6, i'm going to be able to lick my elbow.

Tuesday 20th December 2011
Today we got up early and didn't even  have breakfast and went out. Mummy reminded me that i had a speech therapist appointment with Lucy, i haven't seen Lucy for ages. I wrote her a card before we left too. When we got there, i done lots of talking, looking at pictures and saying the sentences and then playing games. I sat and done a puzzle when Lucy spoke to mummy and Dad.
(this is from mummy-Lucy told me that you are still talking with turbulance in your speech, which means you have air going through your nose, which you shouldnt' have for some sounds. She told me that you will need to have more investigations done, which is the xray and maybe a camera up your nose again - like you had before the operation of the re-repair of your palate last time. I haven't told you yet, will tell you closer to the time. There is also a big chance you will need to have another operation. It will be something that will put a speed hump in your throat, to make your throat meet your palate when you talk, which will stop the air getting into your nose when you talk. There is a chance this might not work, but i have decided it is better to do it now when you are so young, rather than waiting until you're older. Lucy has already said that it has got worse since she saw you in August, so i dont want it affecting you when you are growing up)
After saying bye to Lucy, we went and got the bus and went to town. We went to the pub we always go to when we have breakfast. I had breakfast and it was good, i ate lots. Then we went and done some shopping for christmas, we got some chocolates and toffees. Then when we went to another shop, Dad put a teddy in my arms, i looked at it and said awww thats nice and put it back, he said why are you putting it back, don't you want it. I smiled, yay i got a lovely teddy!! It is lovely and soft too. Dad bought if for me.

Wednesday 21st December 2011
When i woke up today, mummy was already dressed! We are going to see Dads family today. Mummy helped me get ready and i was ready faster than Dad, that never happens. When we got on the second bus, we sat down and started playing a game, someone says what to look for, then you have to find it first. It was really fun. Mummy told us what to look for first, then it was my turn. Mummy noticed the man in front of her putting his head in his hand and then tutting, we carried on playing. Then the man stood up and moved right the back of the bus!! We were being a bit noisy i think, me especially. Mummy and Dad thought it was funny that he had moved, so did i. Dad made a competition, the first person to say when we were in Witney was the winner. I won!! We met his family and then went for breakfast, i had a fried egg sandwich, but i was so busy posing in the mirrors all around and being nosy that Dads nan and grandad finished and left, his mum stayed with us whilst i finished my sandwich. Then we went off with her and found his nan. We went and bought some buttons for me, from the shop that Dad has bought me a hello kitty one before, i chose lots of cool buttons for mummy to sew onto my trousers. I had found a £2 coin in my bedroom this morning, so we went to the toy shop. I went straight to a toy and when Dad caught up with us, he said he knew i'd go to that toy, because it was the toy that i had wanted when i was with him the other week, when mummy was working. Dad gave me a few extra pennies as it was £2.50. It was a playmobil girl and a bike, thats it. There was a big pretend santa sat on a bench, so mummy took a picture of me with him.


When we had finished shopping, Dad went into a shop and when he came out, he had a chocolate lolly for me and mummy (my prize and mummy had won by seeing a doughnut in a shop) It was then time to go home, we started eating our lollies, but mummy didn't like hers. Dad stormed off, because he wanted to get her another chocolate and she said no, so he just went, it was funny. When he came back, he had chocolate that she does like :) then we got on the bus. We sat right at the front of the bus. All the way home on the bus, i played with the girl on the bike, making her do tricks on it. Mummy showed me a video on her phone of people doing tricks and then i got my girl to do the same. We went shopping in town when we got back to oxford. I tried on some coats, when they were on the pegs, it was funny.


We all had dinner together, i like it when we do that. Just before bedtime, i got my sticker chart and this afternoon, i haven't been listening and have been a little bit naughty. All morning i was really good, but on the way home from Witney, i started not listening. I didn't get my listening sticker today, or my eating dinner quickly one (i take over half an hour to eat it sometimes, or maybe more) and i didn't get the getting ready for bed one either, because it took me 20 minutes to get my pyjamas on. But instead of being sad about it, i smiled. So mummy and Dad don't think i'm taking it seriously anymore, oh dear.

Friday 25th November 2011

I haven't gone to school today because last night i had a runny poo, i told mummy it 'squirted out' and then today i have a tummy ache.
I've liked being at home, i played with my playmobil and dolls house for most of the morning. Then because mummy had already made my lunch for school, i sat watching tv with my lunch box hehe. I liked that.
eating my lunch from my lunch box :)

Tuesday 22nd November 2011

When i got home today, i told mummy that it was one of my teachers birthdays today. I told her that he is older than her, he's 25. Mummy said she is older than him and i said but he's older, he's taller than you and Tom. Mummy had to explain to me that doesn't mean you're older than someone, she reminded me that uncle alex is taller than her, but he's younger than her hehe

Sunday 20th November 2011

I woke up and found a certificate AND money from the tooth fairy!!! I was so excited, when i first saw the certificate, i said mummy, i don't know what that white thing is. Mummy thinks i thought that was all i got from the tooth fairy, was a piece of paper hehe. I took it into Tom and Mummy's room and mummy read the certificate out to me, I really liked that and then i looked in the box, i had a big penny in there! (mummy says its a £2 coin)
Me with my certificate from the toothfairy :)

This is the front of the certificate :)
And the message she has written on the back too :)


Me carrying Roxeane all the way to Tesco
After we had all had cuddles and i'd had breakfast, me and Mummy walked to tesco to meet Nana, i insisted on carrying Roxeane all the way there.
We stayed at Nana's all day, i liked being there all that time. Aunty Sam and Kaamiel came there too, so i got to play with Kaamiel. I showed him how to bump down the stairs on my bottom and he copied me, that was funny and he made the same sounds as me too.
Before bedtime, mummy started to make me a sock monkey, i ended up falling asleep in her and Toms bed whilst i was waiting hehe. When mummy woke me up to go to my own bed, it was ready, i love my sock monkey!!
My first ever sock monkey!!

Saturday 19th November 2011

MY TOOTH FELL OUT THIS MORNING!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!
It's so exciting, i can't wait to put it in my special box for the tooth fairy!!
No tooth!! Yay. The spots are from yesterday at school :)


Mummy's breakfast I made her :)
 I played for a bit whilst mummy had a shower and then I made her some breakfast and took it through to her in her bedroom :) I made her shreddies and took it on my wooden tray from my tea-set. Mummy was really happy and said thank you and that i was lovely. I told her that i want to make it for Tom when he's at home too.
 After we had been to town to get a few things, we came home and i played. I couldn't wait till bedtime :)
At bedtime, i put my tooth in the special box i made and put it on my drum kit next to my bed, i didn't want to put it under my pillow incase it got lost :/ I went to sleep really quickly too hehe

Friday 18th November 2011

Me and mummy went to work/school wearing our spotty pyjamas today, it was so funny walking to the bus stop wearing them. I loved it, made me laugh. When i got to school, i had to guess how many spots were in the jar, i guessed 48 (there were lots more than that, we were told at the end of the day)

At bedtime, mummy had to use her torch on her phone, so we could see the way to my bed. It was so funny, mummy put it behind my head and it made my head look small and then when mummy moved it a bit, it made my head get bigger and bigger. We done this for ages and were laughing lots and lots.

Tuesday 15th November 2011

I had a hearing test today, Tom came with us. I like it when Tom comes to the hospital with us :) I had a little play in the play area and then it was time to go in to the special room where i can't hear anything from outside, its funny. I had a funny thing to hold and it has a button. When i heard a noise, i had to press the button. The lady said at the end that my hearing in my right ear is now better than my left (the hearing aid i had to wear was in my right ear) and that my left ear is down quite alot for hearing. I don't have to wear a hearing aid though, yay. Then we had to go back and wait to be called again. This time we went into another room and the lady looked in my ears and said that i still had a bit of gunk in my right ear from the ear infection.
After being at the hospital, we all walked to headington. Me and mummy had to get a bus to my school and Tom went and got some breakfast and went home.
At bedtime, Mummy said she was going to read me a story and Tom pretended to be sad and said where was his story, so mummy talked in a funny voice and said to come with her and she would read him a story too hehe. When we got to my room, mummy told Tom to get into bed too, she tucked us both up and read us a story. It made us all laugh, i liked having a story with Tom to cuddle up to :)
Me and Tom tucked up in bed, ready for our story :D

Saturday 12th November 2011

We have had Nana's car this weekend, so when we got up in the morning, i went and sat on Tom and mummys' bed and we talked about what we are going to do today. I said i wanted to go for a car picnic, they said yes we can do that. Then mummy said we are going to go high wycombe. I love our days out we have :D When we got there, we went into a carpark where mummy had to drive up and up and up and up, that was fun. We looked round the shops, I got to choose some shops to go in too. There were sweet shops and toy shops that we went in, then mummy wanted to look in one shop because she thought that we would be able to get a coat without sweaty bits in the sleaves. We did! It is nice and it has funny thumb bits in which is like Tom. I like my new coat. Then we had to leave because Tom is working tonight. We found Asda to get petrol and then parked somewhere to have our car picnic. It was a fun day :)

Friday 4th November - Monday 7th November 2011

When mummy picked me up from school, i was a bit quiet, i hadn't eaten my lunch and the lady at after school club said i had been saying my tummy was hurting. On the bus i curled up in a ball :( When we got home, mummy gave me some calpol and i had some cereal for dinner because i didn't want anything else. When i woke up on the Saturday, we didn't go out because i was hot, my temperature was high, but mummy didn't have a thermometer so didn't know how hot. I had calpol and then mummy had to phone Nana for Nana to bring some nurofen too as the calpol wasn't making my temperature go down at all. On Sunday, my ears were hurting and mummy phoned the doctor and we had an appointment to go to at 12.20. Nana took us so we didn't have to get a bus. The doctor said i had an ear infection in my outer ear on the right side. That the left one is fine. He gave mummy a prescription for some ear drops. Mummy bought a thermometer too. We had to go to cowley road to get the drops, but then that shop didn't have them so she sent us to cowley centre, but that was shut, so we had to go to town. When we got them, we went to see Tom at work quickly to say hello. Then it was time to go home. On the bus i was starting to get hot again. By the time we got home, i was really hot. Mummy had to give me both the calpol and nurofen. My temperature reached 103.7 :( mummy doesn't like it when i get that hot. I was ok though, i didn't go all floppy like i sometimes do. So that helped mummy not worry so much. My temperature finally started to go down. That night, i was awake in the night, crying in pain. Saying my other ear hurt, the one the doctor had said was fine. Mummy took me to the doctor again, this time our own doctor, instead of the out of hours doctor. He said the ear the other doctor had said had an outer ear infection was an inner ear infection and that the other one is infected too, by this time, it was full of gunk. I had the day at home and the doctor said the next day i would be fine to go to school.
On the way to the shop at the end of the road, to get some bread, mummy thought a fly had gone in her eye and asked me to look for her. I didn't see one. Then i said 'no, but if you get one in there, it makes a hole with its sharp claws and pulls it open' 
On Saturday night, because i was poorly, we didn't go out to see fireworks, so me and Mummy sat on her bed watching out of the window. I saw lots. I really liked watching them cuddled up in bed with Mummy.

After school we went to cowley centre to buy me a new lunch box. When we found one, we looked round the Halloween things they had left over. We found a pirate hat and some shoe things that go over my shoes to look like pirate boots and a skull and a cup!! When we got home, i tried my whole outfit on, i'm now a proper poppa pirate pal :D (a film has this in but penguin pal instead and i think its funny to use other words instead of the penguin bit) Mummy and Tom said i looked really good :) I love it, i need to start buying another outfit now though.
This is me in my pirate outfit :)
Mummy made a paper hat too, i put it on Echo hehe.
awwwww she is so cute!!


When mummy put me to bed tonight, we were talking about bodies, this is what mummy put on her facebook about it:
A conversation I had with Harriet last night: we had been talking about bodies and she had said about our bones in our ears, wanting to see how small they are
Me: You cant take your bones out Harriet, I'll find a picture 
Harriet: Well yeah, only if you have a special grabber then you can put it right down without it hurting and take them out. 
Mummy thinks that i think i'm like the game, operation, that i can take bits of my body out. Mummy has said she's never going to buy me that game hehe,

I was eating my dinner today and suddenly said my tooth hurt. Mummy got her phone and used the torch to see in my mouth. I have my first wobbly tooth!!! It's a front one, at the bottom. I'm so excited! Mummy said i will get a penny from the tooth fairy when it falls out. I've been asking mummy for ages when i will get a wobbly tooth because my friends at school have them. I phoned Nana and Tom to tell them too.
My wobbly tooth!!! Yay

Saturday 29th October 2011

Mummy picked me up from nannys and on the bus to headington she told me that her and Tom had decorated the living room for our halloween party :) when we got to headington Tom met us and we went into one of the shops there. There were lots of Halloween crisps, cakes and different sized pumpkins. We left the shop though. Mummy said we would come back after. We went to the park! I wanted to go on the climbing wall first (Tom had the frisbee in his bag) I had a few goes of that and then it was frisbee time :) First I chose somewhere to play it, but then Tom said shall we play in the sun instead. So we moved everything. Mummy still wasn't very good, but she did catch it 2 times. I caught it too today!!! That was so good. I was really good at throwing it today too. Then we went back and got the Halloween crisps that we had seen and I chose 2 pumpkins (one really small one, because small things are cute hehe) then we went to Iceland to buy the party food.
When we got back home, I had to go in the living room first to see it. It was brilliant! Posters, a spooky cat, skeleton straws, Halloween cups. It was all so good.
We all got on the bed and talked about what we were going to do at the party. Then me and mummy looked for designs for the pumpkins. When we found the ones we wanted we went to the living room. I helped mummy scoop the inside of them out. Then I drew the pictures on them for mummy to cut out.

I drew the faces all by myself

Mummy cut them out, I like my pumpkins :)

This is my big pumpkin with a candle in, Mummy said it looked like a Cleft Pumpkin
 Then mummy cooked all the food, there was LOADS! We all used our halloween plates. I really liked it.
When we were eating our yummy food, we watched the film that Mummy had bought, it was a Scooby Doo one about Halloween. Tom had a sleep and then it was time for Monster Hide and Seek :D That was so much fun. We had to stop using the masks though because we got quite hot wearing them. Tom hid under the clothers and mummy hid in the airing cupboard so on my next two times i hid in them places too. On my last go, mummy hid me from Tom. He looked and looked, but couldn't find me hehe. I was in the washing basket with clean washing on my head. I loved our Halloween Party.

When we got up today mummy reminded me that we're going to iKidz today. We were going with big Ella, but they can't make it, so then evie was going to come, but she's had diahorea so it was just me and mummy :) I had lots of fun there, it was good. I went on the spiral slide, that was good. Mummy watched me come down. Then it was time to go because I'm going to see my daddy today. I nearly started crying because I didn't want to go to his house. I've never been there and feel nervous about it. When we met him, mummy told him and he said thats ok I can go to nannys instead. I was happy then.

Hmmmmmm mummy has been rubbish hasn't she.
I even downloaded an application on my phone to make sure that i keep up to date with this, didn't do very well did i :( sorry Harriet.
I'm not going to cover everything that has happened, there has been lots of lovely times, fun times and happy times with you, me and Tom. From here onwards its going back to the normal way of me writing, as if its you :)

It's been half term this week and its been nice spending more time with Tom because normally when i get home, he's either going to work soon or its dinner then bed for me. So i have really enjoyed this week. It's been nice spending more time with mummy too and whats better, is spending time with both of them together :D
Today me and mummy have been making Ben10 watches and colouring, its been good. Tom was at home this morning, but he had to go to work at 2. This morning we all had the morning together and when we had eaten our lunch we all sat on the sofa together. It was funny, mummy kept tickling Tom and he was laughing lots and then he tickled mummy so much that mummy slipped onto the floor, i laughed lots. I'm really excited because Tom isn't working on saturday now, he was going to be before. And since Tom found out he's not working, he said we could have a Halloween party :D i'm so excited. We are going to have party food, play monster hide and seek and watch a film.
On Wednesday this week, we went to Witney to see Tom's family, i was being my normal cheeky self, hitting Tom's mummy's bum and holding her hand and being cheeky. I like Julie. When we came back to Oxford, we went to Bury Knowl park in Headington and played with the frisbee that we bought in Witney. Tom was really good at throwing it and he could catch it too and mummy, she made us both laugh because she was rubbish, she couldnt' throw or catch it hehe. I very nearly caught the frisbee a few times, i was getting really good by the time we went home.
In the holiday i had a letter! I've got a penpal now, his name is Josh. He's mummy's friends little boy. This is my letter to him that i sent. Mummy wrote the things i wanted to say and then i copied it.
My letter and drawing to my penpal
I also had homework to do in the holidays, i really enjoyed doing the homework. This is my homework.
Me doing my homework

I had to label a picture about one of the animals i have been  learning about

I had to write a few things that i had learnt about, at home about the animal

Then i had to look around my home to see what gives off light as that is our new topic in the new term.

We are going to Shotover today :-) Ray is coming and then we are going.
When Ray got here, we were all nearly ready and then we left, mummy said she had spare clothes for me and that i had some lunch too. I had my wellies and raincoat on and mummy had her wellies on too. We walked to shotover, sometimes i held Toms hand and then i held mummy's hand.
When we got there, the 'sandpit' was quite wet and muddy as it was raining this morning quite alot. I was walking around in it, using a long stick to dig in it, i told mummy that i was using a long stick so i didnt' need to bend down. Mummy and Tom kept telling me to sit in it, but i didn't want to. Ray tucked his trousers into his boots and then he came over to play too. Then mummy gave Tom her camera and she came over too. Tom only has the boots he was wearing so he couldn't come and play :-( but he said he's going to buy some wellies :-) for next time. Mummy and Ray stood in the water and then mummy splashed Ray hehe. Mummy got his glasses muddy and wet so he went and took them off and then came back and got mummy really wet :-)

Ray is ready to get muddy, trousers tucked in



Mummy and Ray came to get muddy with me



Mummy got very muddy (she got worse than this too hehe)

Wednesday 10th August 2011

So excited today!!!! Mummy reminded me that we are going to iKids to see Ella and Elliot today, (my friend who moved to Cyprus with her brother) and i am so excited. The last time we saw them, was in December, before christmas. I have missed Ella. When we got there, they were there already, i ran off to play straight away. Mummy sat and talked to their mummy, who is her friend, Kayleigh. I loved being able to play with Ella and Elliot. We were there for 3 hours! :D :D

Mummy took our photo outside, so i've got a photo of me and them two. I really miss them when they are in Cyprus.

Monday 8th August 2011

mummy has been meaning to write this bit in to a page somewhere, so is going to put it here :) she wanted to tell the big Harriet about something the little Harriet does that her and Tom find really funny. When I say something, even if i'm wrong, and think i'm right, (which happens alot of the time) my head goes side to side, mummy and Tom call me Bobble Head because of it. They say its like I have an attitude at the age of 5.
Back to today, I walked to Tesco with mummy today, it takes about 15 minutes to walk there. I took one of mummy's old phones and all the way there, i didn't talk to mummy,  i was talking to Zoe (my imaginary friend, although mummy isn't sure if she really is an imaginary friend, if i see her, or if i just make her up, but don't see her- I used to have a friend called Zoe at an old nursery and I have had 'zoe' as a friend for about 2 years now.) I didn't talk to mummy once and me and Zoe talked the whole way there, on the phone and then Zoe was next to me too. I talk to Zoe quite alot some times. Some times she is small (smaller than my hand) another time she is bigger than me, then the same size as me (which is another reason mummy isn't sure if she really is there or not)

Friday 5th August 2011

When i got up this morning, mummy reminded me that i have a speech therapy session with Lucy, i havent seen Lucy for ages. When we got there, we were a bit early, so we went and had a cake each in the cafeteria there, i had a belgian bun and a glass of milk. It was yummy. Then it was time to go and see Lucy. We waited in the waiting room until she came and got us, mummy reminded me that she would have a lady in there with her, who is learning to do the job that Lucy does. I sat down and at first i was a bit shy, Lucy asked me about my holidays and i started talking to her. Lucy looked at mummy and mummy said 'she's good isn't she' i smiled. Lucy asked what i had been doing, because my speech is lots better. Mummy told her that she had told me that i am my palates teacher and i have been teaching my palate to say things properly. Lucy asked if i could go and help the other children she works with become good teachers hehe. Lucy is really pleased with me. I had to repeat the sentences from her book and at the end, she was amazed at how well i am doing. She spoke to mummy and me and said that she doesn't need to do any more work with me, as far as speech therapy is concerned, i'm finished!! :D that made mummy nearly cry as she wasn't expecting to hear that. Mummy is really proud of me and how well i have done. Lucy said she would see me when i go and have a hearing review in august/september time. She did tell mummy that there is still alot of turbulence when i talk and that air is still coming down my nose. That i might need to have another operation next year, but will see me nearer christmas and talk about it with mummy then.

We had to wait in today because the gas man is coming. Tom went to Witney to buy some CD's. I played on my guitar, i plugged it into the amp too and was singing when he got here. He told mummy he has never been serenaded before hehe.
When Tom got home we went to the shop after a bit, i went in my pyjamas and dressing gown, mummy and Tom thought i was mad because it was really hot.
I had a bath and was having my hair brushed in the living room and watching  tv and when it was finished, mummy and Tom asked me if i wanted to go for a walk in the puddles instead of going to bed, i got really excited! I got my wellies on really fast, mummy did too, Tom doesn't have any wellies, i think he needs to get some. Mummy and Tom went out in shorts (its really hot and muggy weather) and then we were ready.

Just before my first jump

Getting ready (mummy thinks i may have got distracted by my reflection though hehe)


Mummy loves jumping in puddles too :-)
