Well I hate winter and I guess I slept through most of it. Now it's May and the sun is more out than in and all the little birds and rodents are out and about providing me with loads of fun chasing them - although they don't seem to see the funny side. There is a nest of blackbirds in our tree and Mum says I have to leave them alone which seems mean but I guess I should follow her advice. However she doesn't seem so interested in all the mice and voles and shrews so they are fair game, if a little fast most of the time.

I am also very excited because I have a little sister, real life human sister, on the way. Apparently she will be arriving in September but I don't understand because when I sit on Mum's tummy I can hear her there. I wonder what they mean when they say she will be arriving. The one thing I do know is that the room I used to sleep in has all changed. I always knew it wasn't my room but now there isn't even a bed for me to sleep on, just a weird wooden box with slatted edges, apparently that is where my sister will sleep. I hope she will like me, I am a little worried that she won't want an older brother but Mum and Dad keep reassuring me that as big brother it will be my job to look after her. And I have been promised that very soon after she arrives she will be a lovely playmate - I can't wait for that!

So that's my news, just sleeping the winter away and now enjoying the sunshine and cuddling Mum and her ever growing tummy (she should eat less but don't tell her I told you!!!)
