Why yes, I do take dancing lessons! Every Saturday morning I do 1.5 hours of dancing: ballet, tap and modern.

Dancing in the streets

On Saturday Amelia and I came across some buskers in York called "Blackbeard's Tea Party". We really liked them and sat on the steps of the bank watching them for quite some time. We were there so long Mummy wandered off to shop elsewhere, and Daddy actually got some nice video footage of us:

Evie joins Rainbows
Evie just after she got back from her first session at Rainbows. They let her take Rainbow Bear home for the week to stay with her. He has been introduced to Pink Bunny and they're getting on fine.

My even blacker eye
Apparently people keep thinking I've had an accident with some dark eyeliner. I told someone that I got it when Daddy crashed his bike into the back of mine. Hee hee!

My Black Eye!
I fell over at school on 2009-06-17 and banged my head on the corner of a table. Apparently, I wasn't even messing about or anything at the time. I now have a cracking shiner!

I CAN RIDE A BIKE WITHOUT STABILISERS!!!!

Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:11:51 GMT

I kinda learnt a few days ago, on Saturday actually, the same day I met my new baby sister. Daddy says it's the most stressful thing he's ever had to do as my Daddy, running along behind me then eventually letting me go and seeing me wobble off into the distance.
He didn't record me on the day I did it, but went out with his video camera today to record it. He reckons this clip shows me at my most wobbly, and most resembles what I was like on Saturday:

This later clip is what I can do now. See how I stand on my pedals for a bit of showboating:

Tattoos

Thu, 25 Dec 2008 21:48:52 GMT

Ha ha! Aunty Nicola [melancholyrose_] bought me a DIY tattoo kit for xmas! Look:

I tattooed everyone else in the house too, apart from Daddy, who escaped (somehow).

On Friday evening, I watched CBeebies, and they were being all educational and showing some Maoris dancing about. They had tattoos *and* face paint. I thought this was great, and decided to paint myself "like Aunty Nicola" (Daddy is staring hard at melancholyrose_). Daddy helped me to get my paint out and I ended up looking like this:

I was put in the bath shortly afterwards! Daddy says he doesn't really mind me doing this, as it's Early Learning Centre paint (and hence utterly non-toxic and totally water soluble), and it keeps me happy. Any anyway, small children come clean if you hose them down, apparently.

Certificate

Sun, 19 Oct 2008 15:50:59 GMT

I've also moved my way up the star charts at school and got a special certificate!

Daddy checked to see if there were *two* Evie's in the same class and the teacher had got confused, but apparently not and I've been rewarded for hard work and (wait for it) good behaviour. Daddy thinks Mrs Smith is a wonderful teacher.

Pics!

Conversation this morning:

Daddy: Here's LazyTown for you.
Me: I don't want to watch that! That's for babies. I want to watch Spongebob Squarepants!
Daddy: Er, OK.

[Mummy says "hurray - do you know how much I hate children's TV?"]

This morning I declared I did not want to go to school. I wanted to stay at home with Mummy, eat sweeties and watch Beebies. Daddy laughed and said something about "get used to it!" and sent me off to school anyway. Bah!

Another painfully cute shot of me in my schooliform

Daddy says he won't apologise for spamming you all with pics of cute little me, 'cos he thinks I am the most beautiful little girl in the whole wide world and he loves me very much! :-)

SCHOOL!

Wed, 03 Sep 2008 08:34:05 GMT

I HAVE STARTED SCHOOL TODAY!

Apparently some parents cry when their children start school. Mummy looked more like this when I last saw her:

Here I am in my uniform this morning, ready to go:

Sundown Adventure Land

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 11:26:16 GMT

Yesterday I went to Sundown Adventure Land with two of my little friends and had THE BESTEST TIME EVER!

Pictures here: http://vinpetrol.fotopic.net/c1565482.html

We went on a splashy water ride ONE MILLION TIMES and Daddy got very wet (ha ha). Mummy sat at the side and waited for us. I went round a pink castle, rampaged in a cowboy-and-indian themed adventure playground, and had a ride on a train and on a tractor. It was lots of fun!

Random Picture

Mon, 18 Aug 2008 16:21:22 GMT

Daddy has let me have an old digital camera to play with. He may post some of the pictures I took another day, but he got me to pose (not hard) a little bit and thought this was a very cute picture of me:

He says the combination of combat trousers and pink top is "very Evie". I've just had a bath which is why my hair looks very dark - it was still wet.

Climbing

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 12:26:06 GMT

Daddy also got a good little video of me climbing on the little climbing wall at Rowntree's Park:

Apparently, when I'm older, he's packing me off with some grown-ups to do this on bigger walls. Apparently it will wear me out...

FOOTBALL

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 12:11:16 GMT

On Friday night I went to my first ever football match! York City entertained Middlesbrough at Bootham Crescent, and Mummy and Daddy took me along. Middlesbrough are apparently my team, although Mummy and Daddy told me they played in red. They played in blue on Friday, which did confuse me lots.
It was very busy and loud. Sometimes I would watch the ball being kicked around, although I get never got to kick it :-( Other times I would swing around the barriers, as we were standing on terraces.
On the way back, there were lots of men singing a song: "If you're proud to come from Yorkshire clap your hands". I did like this song, and clapped my hands too. I also tried to join in singing "Red Army".
I went to bed very late (22:00) but still got up to wake Daddy up at 06:00 the next morning. He was not impressed. Hee hee.
Here's a picture of me at football:
