Well it’s a brand new year, ummmm, well it was… it’s now March! Oops! But I’ve been really, really busy. So how about I tell you a bit about January? Since getting back from my interstate adventures, I’ve been getting back into Sydney life. Going to Gymbaroo, swimming classes, hanging out with my friends and playing with all my new toys! I think Mummy and Daddy’s luggage must have been really heavy!
Yep, I'm totally not just lying down, looking at the ceiling, any more!
Our house is so much more interesting now that I can crawl and cruise to all the places I feel like going (I’m actually walking now, but more on that in March). I used the furniture to help me get around… like this!
Oh yeah, I'm cruising! And working on the serious business of pulling apart Mummy's purse.
As I waved a $20 note in the air and shoved it into my mouth, Mummy said “Why do you thwart me Coco?” THWART!? That is the weirdest word I’ve ever heard! It made me laugh. Mummy kept saying it and I kept laughing. It sounds like a strange animal. I also had my first sandwich. It was a cheese sandwich… yummmm!
It always tastes better when someone else makes it.
My first tooth came through too!!!! But it was quickly followed by the next five! Ouch! But I was a good girl and I didn’t grizzle too much. I’ve been doing heaps of fun things really. Like going away to Pearl Beach with the Stevens/Jennings crew for Australia Day.
Sachin and Edie are heaps of fun and they're funny! Perfect.
My first ocean swims and bush walks... not bad for 11 months of age.
But that was just January… more Coco adventures to come!

Well after Adelaide, my travels weren’t over yet. I went to Echuca, or as I like to say ‘Chewka’. But a really cool thing happened somewhere between the two towns… I saw my cousin Addison in Melbourne! We had lunch together at her house, with my Uncle Todd and Aunty Bronwyn. Addi has heaps of cool toys, a really lovely house and she is sooooo wonderful! I can’t wait to see her again really soon at her Christening. I’m going to be there for sure!
Uncle Toddy and my double trouble cuz Addi
Memme and Papadoodles drove me to Chewka, and guess who visited me there? Uncle Kitty! He is so cool, fun and cuddly. I love him! I’m not sure if I’ll learn bass, drums, song writing or rock godness from him. Maybe all four!
Mine Kinny taught me the tambourine... I'm in the band! Yay!
Do you know who else came to Chewka? My mind-blowingly entertaining cousins, Hal, Nina and Leo. Okay, technically they are like third cousins or something, but that’s just too much. They are my family and they are fab and that’s all that matters! We had so much fun, I could watch them run around ALL DAY! Plus my hair is the same colour as theirs. We match!
We have 'The Force' on our side
I just had the best time at Chewka, that sometimes it was all too much and I had to crash out… big time.
- When I’m sleepy there’s no stopping me.
Hmmm, looks like Mummy crashed out too. It was really great to be with my Memme and Papa D again. I had lots of special chats, cuddles and walks with them. I got a bit sick with a chest infection before I left, so I look a bit dopey in this last photo, but I love them all the same.
So tired, yet so happy
I’ll be celebrating being one soon, so watch out!
