Me and my buddy Charlie

This is me and my buddy Charlie. He's a little bit older than me but like his Mum Sherries says, age and nothin' but a number and anyways soon enough the 5 months separating us won't make any difference... Charlie is a cool dude with a good sense of humour and generous to a fault - he's given me heaps of really cool things and as you can see he is good at sharing! He is my first little dude buddy and we are gonna have heaps of adventures together : when we start walking man, there'll be no stoppin' us. He teaches me all the cool stuff like how to 'gimme five'...we'll probably be blood brothers and have our own special gang handshake one day. Its always good to see him and I think maybe Mummy and Sherrie should be friends so they aren't in our faces cramping our style. They really need to get out more...

Short clips from Daddy's phone

So many clips, so short in length...as you can see I'm a chatty little man. Mummy and Daddy think my voice is the most beautiful thing they have ever heard. I'm really loving to make sounds at the moment - the sound of my own voice is fascinating. I practice being loud and singing...yesterday Mummy caught me trying to talk to a table.

Mummy and I chat all the time and I tell her lots and lots of things about my day (just in case she missed them or had forgotten about them). Most of the time I'm a very happy chappie and I talk to people when I am in a good mood. Sometimes I take a break from my friend boob and tell Mummy how much fun I am having...that can take up to ten minutes when I'm having a good day! When I am tired I make one heck of a racket!! Luckily Mummy and Daddy come and soothe me and once I get to bed with boob all to myself I can kick back, relax and get some shut-eye. I'm not a complicated guy. You just have to listen.

Ernie Fashion October 2009 Part II

As I may have already told you "I heart trees" and heres the proof. Daddy got this for me before I was even born. He must be psychic because I do heart trees - a lot! They fascinate me.

Anyhoo, this is me having a bit of chillaxation in my bouncie.

Ernie Fashion October 2009 Part I

Its starting to get chilly in old Blighty. On a recent trip to Berkswell it got cold so I was able to get my trusty favourite hat out of my change bag to keep my head and ears warm. My Great-Grandma knitted this especially for me and I love it. Mummy likes to push it around my head to give me various looks - this is the "McMurphy".

My Great-Grandma is very special - she knitted matching booties which I have now outgrown. I have inherited the McConnell family curse - and my Poppy has HOOOOOOJ feet too so I guess I'm going to get through plenty of footwear. I wish Mummy had taken a picture of me in those booties because I looked cute in my knitted hat and boot combo. Silly Mummy - again!!!
