Wow - what a busy month it has been


Hello everyone , sorry it's been a while since i've written to the blog but i've been a busy boy..... with a trip to Ireland to visit my rellies over there and then learning to walk. Man it's been busy and tiring !!
Firstly i've been on a huge plane journey over to Ireland which i really enjoyed and behaved myself really well, much to mammy and daddy's delight. I slept well , ate well and didn't cause any trouble , in fact a nice lady complimented me on my beaviour ...( if only she knew the "real" me !!! )
daddy didn't like the special meal that he ordered , trying to be smart and get his food earlier, so he ate my dinner , which was yummy , but i preferred the bottle food that mammy had for me.
Meeting all the aunties and uncles in Ireland was really great , especiallly meeting my twin cousins who are only 9 days older than me - they certainly taught me a few tricks that i didn't know about - thanks michael and thomas !!!
We got on really well and they shared their toys with me which was really nice - i hope they come to australia so i can share my toys with them !! Thanks to all the people in ireland for all the kindness and all the food - mammy and daddy have certainly been in good paddocks , if you know what i mean - lets just say they are not fading away with the hunger !!!
i also met Hansrudi and therese from Switzerland - very nice people who came all the way over just to see me ..... well they did tour around ireland as well , but i like to think that they came to see me !! :) i hope to see you again in switzerland someday......
The picture above was taken in northern ireland at a lovely beach - lovely but cold ! and it wa sa long walk to the beach - thanks to daddy for carrying me - i had a taste of the seaweed there - wouldn't recommend it !!! :-)
and of course seeing granny bob - that was great , she gave me hugs and kisses every day - not that i always wanted them , but that didn't stop her.
it was a great trip , but i don't think mammy and daddy found it a very realxing one, as i was not sleeping really well at night , and was up at 5.30 every morning , ready for the day - well i thought i was , i was buggered again by 9.00am !!! and needed a big nap !!
I was teething , thats my excuse and i'm sticking to it !!! they had better get used to my early mornings, because i think i am an early bird and like getting up early !!
Amd i am also now walking !!! YEAH!!!!!! i started over in ireland - took my first steps and then there was no stopping me. i now mostly walk around the house on my own. i don't crawl as much. i'm getting pretty staeady on my feet and finally mammy was able to buy me gum-boots , ( or wellies for those in ireland and don't know what gum-boots are !!! - aussie term !! ) so it's been a HUGE month for me , as you can see.
i'll try to get daddy to post a photo of me walking - i look cool !! even if i do say so myself !!!
hope everyone is keeping well , where-ever you are in the world
hugs and kisses ...
the walking and international traveller Liam !!!
