Stragglers from Nov/Dec 2012

When I wrote the posts for November and December 2012, I hadn't yet received the photos Mick took on his mobile phone in those months.  Below are a few photo and video stragglers which Mick took during Nov/Dec 2012. 

Augie and CorkyBear watching what would most certainly be one of two TV shows: Bob the Builder or Maisy (the Mouse).  Most likely Maisy as she seems to have replaced Bob the Builder as Augie's favourite TV show.  We don't let him watch much TV.  Usually about 30-40 mins every other day.  And then it's only to occupy him while I either have a shower in the morning or one of us makes dinner in the evening. Like most other kids, though, he is fully into the TV and would watch loads of it if we let him.


Yes, folks, Lady Gaga is still his favourite dance-music.  Pity the fool who tries to put any song but 'Poker Face' on for him to dance to.

I think this photo was taken right after Mick gave him his Jarhead-haircut, which explains why he looks bald.  But it makes the stickers stuck all over his face look that much funnier!



Having a bit of indoor golf.

Augie's not a water kid.  He far prefers driving his toys in the water (it's a car wash, don't you know) to getting in himself.




We had a storm one afternoon sometime in Nov/Dec.  He spent the next two weeks talking non-stop about storms, and was particularly fond of talking about the 'pfunder and litenening' bits.  We told him storms are nothing to be afraid of, that they are quite fun, and if he's scared to cuddle either Blue Bear or Big Bear, both of whom are not afraid and just love storms.


More talk about storms...who likes them, who doesn't and then some persuasion to stop talking long enough to eat his dessert (fresh mango).  Most evenings we have dinner together and it's a challenge to get him to stop talking long enough to eat a substantial dinner.
