Dapper boy in N-ew Shoes....
Now if he can only learn to walk in them
Without them falling off !

A day of wonder for Miro...
He receives a cherished train set from Grizou in the mail...
Eats 'tanis all over (and off) the floor...
And rides a new bike with Mummy.
This day really was too good.

The birds sneak into our house all day
Eating the crumbs of Miro's breakfast, and exploring.
Miro likes to chase them
Or sometimes, he just likes to watch.

Miro lording it over the backseat
After our visit to the Sunday fruit and vegetable markets.
Wielding a half-chewn carrot like a royal spear,
People laughed as we passed.

Story of our life....
Attempting to dress Miro, and him bare on the big bed,
Bouncing away!

On the verge of walking, Miro crawls less and less, and walks more and more like a crab.
Long-legged feet-down, or when upright holding someone's hand, sideways!

In the morning,
Miro chases birds through the house,
and on the grass during a Mummy-picnic.
Then, he munches into some watermelon -

Finally, in the afternoon, he picks up a crayon and begins drawing for the first time.
Self-initiated once again!

At the playground, Miro meets Little Girls.
Some nice.
Some not so nice.
You never can tell with Little Girls.

Lunchtime at palmy, breezy Holloway Beach.
Miro, with his virgin bout of tropical gastroenteritis,
Is highly suspicious of food of any kind,
And eats like the mousey we see by the paradisaical toilet block...
One spoon of lentils, then nothing else.

Miro is slowly but surely finding his legs... though only when he's got a hand to hold onto!

Miro, suddenly hopelessly obsessed with computers,
Barely lets Mummy and Daddy find a house
Without a tantrum that he can't, too...!
11 May 2009
On the family's first walk in Cairns
It's a rainy, heavy, mosquito-swarm swampy day.
Miro gets to push the pram the way he likes best
And spends the day blissfully happy;
Giggling- playful- delighted.

A family farewell at Sydney Airport
For Miro "McDonaldland Cookies" Maitre, as he jets off to Cairns.
We'll miss you Daney and Grumps!

Miro's last day in Sydney for a while :(
Grumps and Daney come to visit.
Miro takes a shine to Dane's orange hat
Even though a hat would normally last 3 seconds on his head!

When the house is empty again, Miro watches longingly
While Daddy does exciting clearing backyard stuff.
Then, when later on, little Reuben arrives, the boys set in for a communal feeding session....
(Those hairy jumpers were destined for mess...!)
But the boys, growing ever the similar size,
Love touching and playing with each other,
Even if the Bumbo and flashes get a bit much for Reuben after a while!

Miro and Mummy's last regular day at Aunty Jen's gym class.
There'll be no more naughty DJ-ing with Max...
Running for the doors whenever they're open...
Bouncing with the fun balls...
Pushing over the stacked steps...
Parting is such sweet sorrow!

At shopping day with Nanny, Miro flirts with first steps
(Two in a row to Nanny, then plomp to the bottom!)
And touches all the tags, just like Uncle Kev would like him to.
Later on, he takes two more steps to Daddy
All pokey concentrated tongue and great big smiles.

Miro, loving company,
Grows less and less happy with playing alone in the house.
Luckily, today Nanny comes to spend the day with him,
Walking him to Darling Harbour,
Letting him wave and shout with glee at perfect strangers.

Ayden comes over to play when his Mummy Cat becomes sick.
The boys, in bliss, spend the first half hour
Wrestling toys, roaring and growling, stealing things from each other
And copying whatever the other does!

At the Bulwara Rd "Fete des Voisins",
A little curly-haired girl is very suspicious of Miro
And thinks he's going to steal her unidentified plastic thing.

Pea and ham soup day, where Miro finally decides he likes one type of meat.
He and Grumps play with his birthday piano, six weeks too early,
But addictively (and bizarrely, classically!) groovy.

After a Laksa lunch, where Miro wanted noodle
And then periodically remembered that he didn't like spicy food -
Mummy, Cat and Georgie stop by at Festival for chocolate cake,
Where the boys pull apart magazine stands,
And Miro gets jealous of Vicky Cristina Barcelona,
Throwing himself scissor-style between boobies and Mummy-usurper.

An Advance Screening of Mothers Day lunch with Nanny:-
Falafel and fabric, followed by a walk at Chatswood Chase.
