My 6th Happy Birthday!

I've been excited for a while about my birthday coming up, and it started off early in the end of June when I had my birthday party. I got to invite lots of my friends to a disco glow party! We all had spray painted hair and glow sticks. There was dancing and games and we had a yum Minion ice cream cake!



Then the day before my birthday we went to Nanna and Grandad's place for a BBQ. Uncle Brian even surprised me by coming down to visit! I got some awesome presents and had some yummy birthday cupcakes.



Finally it was the big day....my 6th birthday! I got up super early because I was so excited and couldn't wait to open presents.



After a quick visit to see Mummy and Emma and get more presents, it was time for all of us to get on the train and go to the city. We went to a cool Lego brickman show.




After the Lego show we went for some really yummy pancakes. They were very big and I couldn't eat all of them.



We finally got home and it was time to take a breather. I managed to find a little bit of room to have some of my birthday cake.



Now that I'm a 6 year old, I've been wondering what new things I can do. I'm probably taller now and I also have some new teeth coming through. I reckon I can run much faster than when I was 5 years old.

Sporting Events

As you probably already know, I like to try out different sports. Over summer it was Tee ball and over winter it is soccer.

Recently we had a presentation night for tee ball because we came equal 1st in the competition! We got some cool trophies and medals. I'm looking forward to playing again at the end of this year.

And this is my official player photo:

This year I am playing under 6 soccer for Grays Point Possums. It's really cool to be playing proper games now. We are already well into the season but here are some pics from my first game. We have had a few wins since then and I have also scored a few goals!

T-Ball Winners!

Now that summer is over, so is the T-Ball season. We ended up tying 1st place for the season! I had lots of fun playing and can't wait for the next season. This was our medal ceremony.

Disco Time!

Back in February we had a family fun night at my school. It was like a disco except parents had to participate too! It was funny watching Mummy and Daddy.

I was exhausted from all the dancing but it was fun.




See how sweaty I got?? Lucky we had pizza to give me energy.

I am the Book Whizz!

A couple of weeks ago at school I was able to participate in the Book Whizz competition. This required us to read books and answer questions on those books correctly. I was selected to represent my class in the final. It was very exciting because it took place in the school hall and parents came to watch too!

The day started with some activities in our classroom. Mummy, Daddy and Nanna came to see my room. I got to show them where I sit and where we can read books.


















Then it was time to go to the hall for the grand final of the Book Whizz competition. I wasn't worried at all!







And here you can see that we won and I became the kindergarten champion! I was very proud and I think everyone else was too.

Summer Holidays

The summer holidays have come and gone but it still feels like yesterday when we were doing all of these things. The video below sums up some of the things that we did:


One of the places we did visit was Luna Park. We went there because they had a special Lego show on with lots of big models that people had built.

Here is Emma and I in front of one of the Lego models. I was trying to give her a kiss on the cheek for the photo.



And this is me in front of one of my favourite Lego models - the Octan tower from the Lego Movie. If you haven't seen the movie you would have no idea what this is. There is also a photo here of a really cool Star Wars forest battle.

 

When we finished with the Lego display the girls went off to go on a ride so I decided it was time to go for a drive!





Here is a photo of me trying not to look exhausted after my running around at the park. I was running really fast!

The Day I Started School

This week I reached a major milestone - I started school! I've been very excited in the weeks leading up to this. I already knew a bit about the school because it's the same one that Emma went to. It's very different from preschool because it's a much bigger place and there are a lot more kids there. I've been practicing my reading and maths so that I'm ready for the challenges of Kindergarten.

I was able to get ready very quickly in the morning because I was so excited. Do you like my uniform?



And here I am with my big sister. She also started in year 7 at her new high school!




We always have to do a silly face photo as well!





Here is my first walk out the door on my way to my new adventure.





The back can get a little bit heavy but I'll get used to it.



Once I got to school I caught up with my best buddy Kobe.



Nanna also came to see me start at my new school.





And here is Mum joining me in my new classroom. I was very keen to get straight into it and start learning!
