Orlando is a Honey Bear for Halloween Check out my Halloween style! This is my Honey Bear outfit that Mummy knitted for me when she found out she was pregnant. I wore it to the babies group today, but its significance was lost on most of those fools, nobody celebrates Halloween this far south of the equator.

So, we went to the mall. I was in the HugaBub baby sling, all nice and snug, lookin’ lookin’ at all the things and the people. Only, the people kept looking at Mummy as if she was some crazy lady. They kept saying “oh! I thought that lady had a teddy bear! It’s a cute baby!” Then they wanted to talk to us. It took forever to get out of that place. My mummy might be a bit eccentric, but she’s not a total fruit loop (yet).

Aufmerksamkeit!

I’ve *finally* finished that little series starring our favourite anthropomorphised vessel of relaxation and cleanliness. This is excellent timing, as I have been asked to participate in a curated exhibition of Helpmann Academy Mentorees ^_^

It’s looking like a fancy shindig! The exhibition wil be held in the Artspace at the Adelaide Festival Centre from November 7th to 18, and will be opened by Christopher Menz, Director of the Art Gallery of South Australia. There is a slick catalogue to boot!

Yul
The wee man is 3 and a half months old already! He has learnt, and then forgotten, and then remembered how to roll over. He is happy, happy, happy! Smiles for everyone! He is very strong, and very vocal – he will tell you all about it!
His hair was looking mighty strange – long black locks from the top and at the temples, but reddish peach fuzz everywhere else, except at the back where it had all rubbed off. Most attractive @_@ So we shaved him bald! Now he really looks like a baby, and also like Yul Brynner. And, of course, I can’t wait for his hair to grow back.
