Weekend stuff

We didn't have any plans for this weekend but we had lots of fun anyway. First of all we went shopping with mummy and Unclclcelcle Kevin and there was this huge shopping place in Lester and there was this exhibition thing with big models of bugs. They were very clever and they moved and this big locust thingy started to take off and spread its wings out but it was a bit scary.

When we got home mummy said we needed some new clothes for our holidays. I've already had a new mushroomy shirt and a waistcoat but Bamburgh hadn't had anyting new for AGES and he really likes clothes. Mummy made him a really smart new shirt with cars and lorries and things on. He likes it a lot. But he says he needs a new waistcoat to go with it now!

She made Roly a whole new outfit because so far he's only had other people's old clothes and one new waistcoat. I think he looks really smart and grown-up.

Then this morning when we got up we went out into the garden because it was sunny and mummy was hanging washing out and we went to check on our pumpkin plants and guess what? We got one! It's still little and mummy says it'll be ages before it grows big enough to make a Hallo Ian lantern out of it. But we're dead excited about it!

Drawing and painting stuff

You know that I do art stuff. Well Mummy has been doing a thing called an art challenge and she has to do a butterfly this time. There's a choice of two pictures to copy and she's doing the fancy one so I thought I'd have a go at the other one that's yellow. First I drew the picture then I coloured it with crayons.



This is the finished picture. Do you think I should put it up for sale on my Folksy Shop?

Nice Mrs Wanda has put the picture on her blog here she sets the challenge.

I am a hontrapannuer

You might not know but I do some art and I have been doing portraits of some of our teddy bear friends lately so Mummy said that people might like to see them and maybe even buy them. So I have been very brave and I have set up a shop.

I really hope that some people will like my things enough to buy them. I'm very nervous. I've only ever drawn things for friends before.
