I'm three!

A super-speedy blog update as befits the faster scooter(er?) in the Southern Hemisphere... loves his scooter, birthday pressie from us, a mini-micro which I highly recommend - light, stable and easy to steer, allowing him to barrel round corners at supersonic speed. Unfortunately he chooses to use his right foot to slow down, rather than the brake, and has worn out two pairs of shoes in a month. Needless to say I am currently shopping for shoes at K-mart rather than Clarks, until this phase wears off!

Very amusing with his stories - narrates long complicated adventures of his trains, as in this picture below, e.g. "'Oh no,' thoughted(!) Thomas, 'I'm stuck!' 'I'll pull you out,' said Other Thomas." I loved hearing him say "Thoughted"!

Favourite stories at the mo are Grandpa's selection for his birthday, particularly Oliver Who Would Not Sleep and Up In The Tree by Margaret Atwood - so for the first time we have a favoured author in common (Alias Grace is probably my favourite of her novels).

Loves to blow bubbles and demands quite frequently to go out in the garden and do so, regardless of how arctic the weather is.
