Florida Card Shark

April 18, 2011
Shared by

On Holiday in Florida Sept/Oct 2009 Ian, Pete and I would have a few games of cards outside at the pool bar after dinner..... Pete being super super competitive got very frustrated at not winning, he kept coming second and well as we all know pete didn't do SECOND!

 He finally whooped us good and proper , crushing Ian who should have won as he had won so many of the games in that round! Pete did a little victory dance of course ..... So heres the proof Petey ... You win x x x x x x x  

Age 4-5 years

He was about 5 years old when he went into the fridge (we were all oblivious to this) he got a box of eggs from the fridge, he cracked them onto the kitchen floor, then stripped to his pants and proceeded to run and slide on his belly on the eggs slamming into the kitchen cupboard doors while squealing and repeating the process over and over! We had to wrap him in a towel to catch him and stop him from continueing as he was too slippery to grab! Classic x

This was also the Year that Petey Started school Soooooo cute in his uniform xx

Age 3 to 4

Your becoming more handsome by the day such a little cutie and such a little tinker too.

You manage to block the downstairs toilet by posting your little cars down it and flushing them away using as much toilet roll as you could to aid with well and truley blocking it........... The repair men came out and at one point it was thought that they would have to dig up half the garden to get to the pipes...... fortunately they didn't have to.

As I said you were getting very handsome with beautiful white perfectly straight teeth............ However you were playing in the kitchen slipped and banged your mouth...........It bled a lot...........and on inspection it became apparent you had knocked your 2 front teeth out, but we couldn't find them, so off to the hospital you went............an xray later showed you had not swallowed them you had in fact pushed your 2 front teeth back up into your gums..........You were such a brave little soldier even then xxxx

Age 2 to 3 (Sass was born and 1st trip to florida)

April 18, 2011

Pete went on the first of many trips to florida, He was hooked from the first day and would never let people go to florida without him!!!  Pete was in magic kingdom and decided to do a spot of garden when he went on to completely pull plants up with roots an all.................... The faces on people around him I am told was a picture!! Such a little Tinker Pete.

Sass was born and when she was only days old she was introduced to Pete and as he peered over the side of the moses basket to take a peak I am sure he was already thinking of ways to either get rid of her or encourage her to get into mischief with him!!!

Age 1 - 2 years

April 18, 2011

Pete was on his feet and raring to go and get into mischief...............and he did!!! One example is when you discovered the video recorder! The repair man became a regular visitor to our house removing Jam on toast, Little cars, Dummy's and a whole host of other things from that video recorder! On one occasion the repair man removed the objects and left and before he had even pulled off the car park you had already posted something else into the machine ha ha ha you were such a lil tinker xx

His 1st Year

April 18, 2011

Well you were a handfull that's for sure! You would be rocked to sleep as a baby in your pram we would sit for hours pushing the pram back and forth till you finally fell to sleep!

Because you had a whole in your heart we didn't let you cry for long someone would rush to you and soothe you as soon as you started.............You knew you had us where you wanted us :-)

You had a good healthy appetite and was very quickly on 8floz of milk, and boy did you thrive once you were introduced to solids YUM YUM YUM CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP your favourites were rusks and moms mash with gravy!

You took your first solo steps just days after your 1st birthday with a big cheeky smile you  pottered across the living room then wobbled and fell on your bum your smile changed to a frown and then a face that was to become a very familiar face for you Pete, Your  determined face as you got up and tried again!

Pete was Born

April 18, 2011

On the 27th of November 1986 at 22:49 you were born weighing in at 7lbs 14oz and we all fell in love........................You were soooooooo poorly you were taking to baby special care where the nurses nicknamed you "RAMBO" because you were sooo big compared to all the other babies that were there because they were premature.

Your were born with a hole in your heart and the doctors feared you would not make it through the night!!! They were wrong you were a fighter!!!!
