| In the car wash |
In preparation for our journey to see grandma and grandad, on Friday me and Mummy tidied the house. Mummy got me super excited playing a game of waving clothes in front of my eyes as she folded while I sat in my baby bouncer. Later when the housework was done, we went one step further and visited the car wash for the first time since I was born! Can you see me in the mirror?
When we got to Ossett on Friday night, we bought Daddy some new tracksuit bottoms because mummy had forgotten to pack them after putting them in the dryer. After that, we all went to Grandma and Grandad's for some tea. On Saturday I went shopping with mummy and grandma to Dewsbury. Back at home I opened the presents Doris next door had given me as well as Grandma's friend Angela - I got some new clothes as well as a new toy which I absolutely love as it has a song as well as lots of colours and patterns and crunchy ears. Later, we saw the whole Sewell clan - Jamie, Sue, Ellie, Eb and Luke, plus Colette and Simon (we'll let him be an honorary Sewell). I woke up just as dinner was served (my favourite trick!!) so Grandma carried me round while mummy ate dinner for a change. After lots of cuddles from everyone as well as lots of baby talk and playing with my new toy I slept very well at night!

| Seen this somewhere before? |
On Sunday we got up to lots of fun. My mate Luke came over and we visited the Hepworth museum in Wakefield. Luke gave me a push from the car park to the door:
On the way in, Luke was excited to be able to see the water between the
wooden slats of the bridge.

| How a baby beats art every time |
It's a great place because there are lots of interesting sculptures. I particularly liked the room with the big pictures of patterns like wallpaper and I had a good stare at these. If I'm honest, I think I attracted more attention than the art in most rooms. Especially when I got fed up of art and started crying!

| Rolling the felt |
Things got even Moore fun (great art pun!) downstairs in the activity room where Luke made a piece of felt based on one of the works of art. It took some time so I used this window of opportunity to down some milk in the indoor picnic area. The ladies in the art room were very nice to Luke and helped out with showing him how to do it. They also made a fuss of me (but I'm used to having fans).
Luke's felt art is really pretty and he is taking it home to show his mummy and teacher.

| Rhubarb fans in the hub of the Rhubarb triangle |
As if that wasn't enough fun, Sunday was also the day of the world famous (sort of) Rhubarb festival in Wakefield. There was lots to do, like circus tricks when Luke showed us all how to throw the diablo, as well as gingerbread decorating. Luke decorated a gingerbread pig but was so hungry that it got eaten before the icing had time to dry!
