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!

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.

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!
