The demon banana flinger of Toronto town








Had a lovely session with Callum this morning. His breakfast was an enormous banana, which disappeared very quickly. Bits of it towards the end seemed to be flung in several directions, but most of it went straight down the right way. If I had a banana which was in the same proportion to my body size as his, it would have been at least a foot long.

After breakfast he was obviously training for some endurance event, because the maximum we could have him in one place was about 10 seconds. He had some lovely new shoes on, which he insisted on putting on his feet, even though he has not yet got out of his banana jammies. See the offending fruit on his bum!!

We have read a good few books, but only after we pulled every single book off the shelves and thrown them all over the floor. We had some climbing practice too, occasionally on the step ladder to see what's outside, other times onto the safety gate between the dining room and kitchen. Definitely Daddy's son!!

His appetite is amazing. Apparently, at day care if he just eats a normal portion the attendants worry about his health. His habit of playing with non-toy toys is still quite prevalent. Alex commented that with hundreds of dollars' worth of toys, he most enjoys to play with an old window shade from the car, especially that it rolls up suddenly which amuses him no end.

Today the weather around here was really weird. The fog was so thick that I couldn't see the other side of the valley. The temperature stayed above zero, so if all goes well we are off by car tomorrow.
