Hey, guess who again. This time blogging from the Qantas lounge. The parents seem to take me here a lot!
Today I had lots of fun. We went on boat ride around the harbour and also got to go to the zoo! Wow, that was really cool. I got to see lions and tigers (roarrrr!) and elephants, giraffes and funny black and white stripey horses. But I really liked the penguins and tried to take this one home. Daddy said he wouldn't fit in the luggage though on the way home :(
Mummy bought me a cuddly lion to make up for it :)
I was a bit tired and had to take a nap but mummy and daddy had this pram for me (not my usual one) but mummy said something about the best 12 dollars they spent today.
Oh well time to go now. I have a plane to catch.

Bondi
Hey there everyone, Grayson monster here again. This time reporting from Bondi beach!
The mother unit had to go to some work thing in Sydney so she took daddy and me to keep her company. I really think she took me for company and daddy to look after me :)
Anyway, while mummy was at her boring work thing, daddy took me to the beach. It was a very nice beach with lots of sand and not many people. I found this boat thing which I quite liked but it was too heavy to get into the water though. Daddy and I built sandcastles and then went to have a snack at the beach cafe.
After a mid-day nap we found a toy boat exhibition at the boat museum next to where we are staying. It was quite fun and mummy found us there after she finished work.
I can't wait to see what daddy will find for me to do tomorrow but I am sure it will be exhausting for him chasing me around :)

Father's day!
Hey they everyone.... Mr G here again.
Well yesterday was father's day (daddy tries to tell me that everyday is father's day but mummy tells me not to listen to daddy..... she says that a lot actually!)
Daddy has been talking a lot about going fishing so I thought that I should help him out and get him a nice new fishing stick. I'm not sure why he needs it as I never see anyone else with one down at the fish shop when they get their fish! Anyway he seemed to like it (even though he didn't get to unwrap it because mummy didn't cover it in colourful paper :(
Later we went to a really big shop called icky or something so mummy could get more things to put her clothes in (she does seem to have a lot of clothes!). It was really fun because I got to push the trolly around and I hardly never ran into anyone. Well what do they expect...it was heavy and I am only little, so they should have gotten out of my way! After yelling a few choice words at them (just like mummy does when we are in the car) they seemed to let me through.
We also went to see Pa because he was in hospital again. I seem to be visiting people in hospital a lot lately. Oh well I don't mind and it seems to make them cheer up.
Bye for now, must get off to day care and I get to go in daddy's BIG car today......or is that mummy's car.....I can't remember :)

River Fire 2008
Grayson Monster here again, Raagghhh!
or should I say - Oh my.... BLEEEEEEEEEEP (Grayson! potty mouth!!!)
Here I was, frazzled, fractured - barely coping with father away for a little soujourn in club mater (mummy note - pneumonia, meep) when the pre-mentioned mother unit takes me up to see him one Saturday evening.
There were several unusual features about this.
Mummy going out on a Saturday night (hee hee hee)
Me going out on a Saturday night (well, I am still underage!)
It took us nearly an hour and a half to get from New Farm to South Brisbane (not to mention daddy was driving and getting a bit narky at taxi drivers pushing in front of him, police women not allowing him to do a u-turn and eventually using the AWESOME power of the X5 to go off road in a not quite entirely legal fashion but which did enable us to get going in the right direction)
But getting back to ME
We were sitting out on the Mater Private balcony when suddenly there was this horrific WHOOOOOSH and a plane flew right overhead AND the plane was on FIRE!
Now, mummy keeps warning me about the dangers of fire and heat - particularly as they end up making her do much more work so I was RATHER terrified that the big whooshing thing might hurt us...
When suddenly all these OTHER things started going off.
And kept going...
And going...
I must confess - I MAY have decompensated a bit - gesturing to the parental units to get their you know whats back inside. Eventually they got the hint and went back inside. Then outside again. Then inside. Then outside...etc etc
Mummy bundled me up and took me back to our big car where we enjoyed the delights that only a turbo engine can offer and drove home. I snuggled into mummy that night and rewarded her by getting up at 6am on Sunday morning....
But it is all okay now in the Grayson household. Daddy is back home. Mummy is not on call. And I do believe there are some tasty treats currently cooking in the oven (aka dinner)
Mummy and Daddy seem to be very happy drinking some celebratory bubbles. I need to work out how to procure some of these celebratory welcome home bubbles for myself - although a nice glass of milk squishey might just do the trick.
Later...
