...more presents...

Last saturday we had a party to celebrate my 2nd birthday. My birthday is not actually until tomorrow but we thought we'd have the party early so mormor could come. I am very interested in Ladybirds at the moment so mummy had done lady-bird invites and made me a ladybird cake. I had four friends who came over with their parents, Georgia, Mackenzie, Eliot and Hector. Jonathan is so little he slept through the whole party! Hector, who is Jonathan's age, watched the rest of us playing.

We had morning tea, during which everyone sang 'happy birthday' to me and mummy brought my cake out. I thought the cake looked great - mummy is really clever! I still need to work on my 'candle-blowing-out ability' as mummy had to help me again this year. Next year I will definitely do it myself.

After we had eaten I opened some of my presents (mummy and daddy have kept some for my birthday so I will tell you about those later) and we played pass the parcel. We then played with my train set that mormor and morfar gave me. We had great fun, all driving trains (and cars) round the tracks. At 12 the others had to go as it was lunch-time - driving trains is hungry work. After lunch I opened more of my presents - lots of books from mormor and my cousins in Belgium and a lego zoo set from mummy and daddy. I had lots of fun playing with all my new toys. I think Jonathan wants to play too as he is growing as quickly as he can!
