My baby is 3 today!

I can't believe it! Where did the time go? He's 3 already!

I did it - I got the bunting finished in time!



His big brother and I had to wake him this morning (isn't it typical that on a morning when you want them to be awake early they decide to sleep in!), so we sang a round of Happy Birthday to wake him up. His brother was convinced that he looked bigger today now that he is 3!

After school drop-off, we headed home to make a birthday cake.


Eating the ingredients. Who knew he liked dark chocolate?



Uh oh! He's breaking the eggs for me. There may be a few crunchy bits in this cake!



Oops! The egg squirted!



Mmmmmm, stir it all up

We have a few friends coming over for a birthday tea after school today, so hopefully they will enjoy his creation - a giant brownie cake!


Here it is, the finished cake

And here is his birthday present from us - a lovely cheapo, plastic playhouse to add to all the other plastic toys littered around the garden - and he loves it!

The sun came out later on when his friends arrived, and they all had a wail of a time in the garden before tea.

We had to do a few rounds of candle-blowing until everyone had had a go, and the cake was well and truly covered in spit!

I think our little man enjoyed his day :)
