3!!

Well I have been busy with parties and presents and cake making the last couple of weeks. Albert turned 3, which meant i spent a few evenings crying at how fast it is all going and then really enjoying seeing how excited he was about everything.

Albert enjoyed everything about his birthday but it was the cake which really meant something, I'm assuming because every party we go to the cake is the main focus with the singing and the candle so he totally froze and started shaking when he saw his cake and couldn't believe it was for him. He was very very cute - and the cake it's kwazii. I checked it was his favourite octonaut but as soon as he saw it he told me he also wanted a Barnacles one.

I'm slightly crying in the last one. For his birthday we went to Marwell Zoo with Nana, Pop, Gemma, Grandma and Frank because adults love a good zoo. It was a lovely day out and I think everyone enjoyed it.

The weekend after his birthday he has his joint party with Dylan and Holly. They had a proper disco with lights and their favourite tunes.

This was before anyone arrived - setting up, we went balloon crazy!!

Here he is looking scared of his cake again, he totally refused to blow them out he was so shy. As soon as they had all blown their candles out though the cakes were snatched from the stands by various tiny hands!

There was carnage on the bouncy castle as normal - and on a side, albert chose his red trousers himself from the shop, he likes his bright colours.

Happy birthday little man!

Easter

This week has been Easter and it has been really really hot and really really wet all over seven days.
At the start of the week we went to the park, we spent a long time there and had a picnic and it was lovely they both really love the park at the moment although I think I was probably more tierd then Albert and Rowan.

Albert fell asleep on the sofa after we had been in a little while, Rowan fell asleep as soon as we got in the car and has developed a very cute car sleep pose.

We also had an Easter egg hunt which was very exciting especially when they realised there were chocolate eggs inside the big eggs - woo hooo!

Sharing!

Rowan also walked across the natural history museum this weekend which was very cool and then decided maybe he preferred his bum shuffling ways. We also tried extreme weather crabbing which didn't go to well - apparently crabs don't like bad weather and swans eat bacon. Two new facts.

Because of the extreme weather we did some crafting.



We also went to Bev and Andys woods which was a lot of fun, Albert and Rowan loved it, sticks, leaves and all sorts of outside fun. The rain held of and there were sausages cooked on fires and beans and lots and lots of swiss roll!

We had a very happy Easter.
