Double Figures

It's another birthday and we know what that means, right? CAKE!

There was one at Granny and Grandpa's:

And then a very special one at home!

Biscuit Design

Today was my school summer fayre and Mummy was there with a stall selling kitchen equipment so Daddy had the joy of following me around with my friend Laura. There was lots to see and do including a bouncy castle, pony rides and a treasure hunt. But here's a picture of the biscuit I decorated for Laura. She decorated one for me and they tasted amazing!

EIGHT!

Birthday time again! Dad was point-blank refusing to throw a big party for my birthday so instead, and since it falls during the Easter holidays, we went to the cinema and then for lunch with a very good friend. We all had a great time eating at my favourite restaurant!

Seven!

Seven at last! Now Mummy has run out of excuses when I ask to play The Incredibles computer game!

I've had a fantastic weekend. Yesterday we went to the Glasgow Science Centre. It was so much fun, we had to leave before seeing all of it. There was a show about perception and I got up in front of the audience and did some dancing under coloured lights to show the impact of colour (I'm so cool!). We built a model of Wallace and Gromit's steam powered wheel chair. We played with lots of displays and I really want to go back.

After the Science Centre, we went to pick up my new bike (pictures to follow). It's a very cool orange mountain bike and luckily just managed to fit in the car to get it home. I'm looking forward to lots of cycle rides on it!

Today, I got lots of lovely presents and we went out for lunch to my favourite place - Franky and Benny's, with Gran and Grandad! And then home for birthday cake. I've had such a good time!



Now, where's that computer game for seven-year-olds?!

Chocolate Brownies

Mummy made chocolate brownies today. They are amazing. And I got the lick the bowl. It was so good..!

Baking

Today I helped Mummy make chocolate-chip banana muffins. And they were amazing! We had such a good time making them too - even if Daddy was in our faces with the camera too much of the time!

Birthday Party

I had my birthday party today! My birthday isn't until Friday but what with next week being Easter weekend and all we had the party today. It was great fun! We played in the softplay for an hour and spent as much of that time as possible tormenting Daddy - superb! Then we had some food and played games. Only one person got physically hurt - which was good I thought: some of the other kids have horror stories to tell about their parties around the water cooler at nursery. A few folk were emotionally hurt when they didn't win prizes - so immature!


I had an abosolutely fab time though and scored LOADS of presents that were all really good. Can't wait for actual birthday now!

Life begins at 4

Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me..!

What a fantastic day I've had today. It's my fourth birthday today and it's been like Christmas here. Mummy made an amazing cake. I picked the cake from her book and she spent all day yesterday making it. Daddy says the air in the kitchen was occasionally blue - not sure what happened to cause that but wish I'd seen it. Mummy says she's never going to make another cake in her life, but I didn't believe her the last couple of times she said that either.

I had forgotten that you sometimes get presents on your birthday so I was extremely excited when Mummy reminded me this morning. We all got dressed (just like Christmas) and then went downstairs together. There was a pile of presents in the middle of the sitting room floor all for me!

First I had to investigate the status of the birthday cake (Mummy was still making it after I went to bed last night). Mummy really had made a good job of it. I was especially pleased with the cannon on top and had to eat that first!

I opened my cards and and then started on the presents. It was a great haul. Lots of Playmobil Knights stuff. My toys were a great match for my cake! There were also some great new books. Mummy and Daddy built my Knights stuff while I played with them.

And then Mummy and Daddy showed me my new BIKE. It doesn't have pedals so that I can learn to go it without stabilisers. It's brilliant but turned out to be a lot harder to ride than Daddy made it look. I'll need quite a bit of practice.

Happy Birthday to me!

It's my third birthday today! I'm three! I got lots of presents from loads of the family and they're all great. Mummy made this fantastic Dinosaur Birthday Cake. I picked it out of the cake book and it's just what I wanted. Gran and Grandad and Auntie Vikki and Uncle Ian were here yesterday and after playing in the park on the climbing frame and with the kite (when Grandad let me have a go) we put candles on the cake and I foofed them out and then we had some. It's chocolate cake and very yummy. So technically we had the cake before my birthday but it'll take at least three days to finish it all (at the rate Mummy and Daddy eat it) so that's OK.

After opening all my presents we went to Deep Sea World in North Queensferry. It was excellent! Especially since I didn't want to go after Mummy told me I'd have to go under the water. But it turned out she didn't mean in the water. They have a great tunnel that's underneath all the fish and they have sharks too. Lots of really cool fish and even some Nemos. I had a great time. Shame it's not my birthday every day.

Yummy Cake

Auntie Vikki and Uncle Ian visited this afternoon. They brought chocolate cake to celebrate daddy's birthday and I had some. It was yummy. And it was a lot of fun scaring mummy and daddy after I'd eaten it. And I'm sure it doesn't really matter that I wiped my hands on the carpet before mummy got a chance to wash them!!
